  1. Coffee Beans
    Square Mile Kilimanjaro Natural/ Grabbed a bag on Sat while I was at Oxford visiting family at Quarter Horse Coffee (probably your best bet for coffee in Oxford). Took a 13 hr plane ride back to Malaysia and brewed this over the V60 the next morning. Bloody expensive beans but the smell of...
  2. Coffee Beans
    Peru Cecovasa via Clever Dripper, eyeballed the coffee and water as I had no measuring scale at my in-laws. But it tasted good! Pulled a shot of a one day old Sumatra Ratawali yesterday. Tasted like a pleasant Indonesian, no acidity!
  3. Coffee Beans
    Just got my UK coffee consignment from my sister who came back to visit. SQM Kenya Kaguimoni on CCD, 18g, 2:50, intense citrus all over. probably have to turn the dial one notch coarser on the skerton and see if i can tone down the lemon a bit. Love the mouthfeel, syrupy! On espresso, got both...

  5. 😎😎 Show Off Your Setup 😍😍
    Thanks. One of the cafes here did a bulk buy on the beans from the States. You don't get much choice in Kuala Lumpur for fresh beans (but its much better these days with two or so reputable roasters in town) so it was a great opportunity to try it. Usually I pull SO espressos so having a blend...
  6. 😎😎 Show Off Your Setup 😍😍
    We finally moved to our own place and my VBM Domobar DB Jr found itself a home. Decided to spring for a Mazzer Mini Doser as a housewarming gift to myself (had to get The Wife a Kitchenaid Artisan mixer to compensate) and have been enjoying the shots out of my VBM a whole lot more. The grinder I...
  7. Brewed Coffee ☕
    My current aeropress method with El Salvador La Nueva from Coffee Supreme, NZ is 17g, grind about drip size, inverted, fill up with water, stir for 10 seconds and press for about 15 seconds. Comes out lovely with toffee butterscotch rolling at the back. On Aeropress vs CCD, I think it's the...
  8. 🔎 Find a Coffeeshop 🔍
    They have a branch (cafe/roaster. and a new upcoming one next week) here in Kuala Lumpur and as it's close to my work place, it's one of the few sources I have for fresh beans. My experience with their espresso blends have generally been positive, and SO on the so-so side (got a bitter bag...
  9. 👋 Introductions 👋
    Plenty of pirates at those waters though arrrrrb Yeah, the past 2 yrs have seen several roasteries prop up around KL as well as Penang so getting fresh coffee is much easier although still lacking in terms of variety. It's still a coffee majors market here so indie cafes have quite an uphill...
  10. Coffee Beans
    Just opened a bag and brewed it on the CCD twice today. It's quite a temperamental coffee, drinking it hot, you get a sharp jolt of bitterness but with layers of acidity underneath it and as the coffee cools down, it's the exact opposite, the brightness comes out first with a pleasant, buttery...
  11. Coffee Beans
    Having this on filter with the clever coffee dripper now, lovely coffee, a subdued brightness at the start, medium body and ends on a lovely buttery, caramelized sugar note. Haven't tried it on espresso but fascinated that you can get chocolate out of it.
  12. Barista Skills for the home enthusiast
    haha, noted. it was my first time taking a video of my shot so i was all over the place. am very happy with my setup at the moment especially when getting fresh beans. i think i can tell between good espresso and bad espresso but the ability to rank good espresso against one another.......i...
