    Aww shame, I had just acknowledged the warning you gave me during your despotic rise too. What goes around comes around I suppose.

    Yes I am inclined to agree with that thought, but then better safe than sorry and keep ones behind covered. Also I had no idea there was such a vacancy, can you tell me more? Had presumed it was something of a closed shop.

    I am concerned that I might have posted something incorrect the other day about the responsibilities of forum members and moderators. Being of the opinion that everything should be clear and truthful I just tried to verify that, but can no longer locate the moderator guidelines. Can someone...

    Hi, I bought it from Coffee Compass. Not so much a brand of Cuban coffee, more a UK roasters offering from the raw crop. https://www.coffeecompass.co.uk/collections/central-america/products/cuban-serrano-altura-superior-500g Telephone orders only though due to Paypal being tied by the US...

    Likewise. I believe a brand/blend created with the intention of being 'consistent' through the various crops that arrive in the year. Such a strong branding that I have heard coffee shop owners repeating it verbally when asked if they ever served anything else. I wondered if the loyalty was more...

    Following this thread with interest, likewise used plastic V60's for a good few years into various receptacles. Presently using the carafe (looking chemex like) which also comes with plastic insert. Often felt that other options might just be 'aesthetics' and a heat thief to the brew process.

    Oh you set off my thirst for more knowledge now. I always understood induction friendly SS was magnetic with non-magnetic SS being useless. I remember the grading notation you mentioned but not what it meant and various terms such as ferritic, austenitic and monel, the latter we used in the...

    It ain't really espresso, either single or double. and you'd probably find most SS pots will work on an induction hob - mine does and it preceded induction hobs by at least 15 to 20 years.

    I have near enough abandoned the espresso kit and gone back to the 3-cup moka pot I bought in the early 90's. Combined with recently acquired Cuban coffee and using exactly the same weight / dose as you, I am really loving it - though I think less water than that. What persuaded your purchase -...

    Well I put my order in at Coffee Compass (not the first I ever made there) and have to say after a nice chat with I presume 'Richard' I very quickly received my greens and a 500g bag of roasted. My moka pot & Hausgrind has taken over from the espresso kit for now and I am drinking some of the...

    Go for it @Rhys, you got the SJ experience under your belt! ...And yes this Major looks really great, love the colour, good job @Ben Mc

    Are those two not completely different beasts? Overall I defer to the renowned experience that @coffeechap has. I was actually thinking about the Eureka Olympus which I think went from 900 to 1400 in its evolution.

    Not so long ago (at least on here) an older and lower RPM variant of the same grinder was considered superior on the basis that lower speed presented lower risk in the way of heat damaging the beans. Now that to me sounds like.... Goes to show how powerful marketing can be Interested to...

    How far does ยฃ20 for a bag of fresh coffee go these days...a Kg? Think that might be a bit hopeful?

    This ^^^ really. If it interests you and piques a yearning to know more go for it. It is not likely you will better or even match (price for price) what can be had from the wonderful variety of good value roasters out there.

    Why not take the Aergrind with you? I have carried an aeropress, whole beans and feldgrind (feldfarb) mkI around with me for a good few years. I thought the aergrind was a spacesaver for on the move?
