Depends on the type of murder.
And type of coffee.
zabadoh@ani.socialto Coffee@lemmy.world•Where do you get your beans? A coffee shops thread2·21 days agoGroceOut is not that fancy.
It’s mostly blends, with some store brands and national brand runs (Starbucks, Dunkin’, etc,) that are almost expired.
I saw some Korean pre-brewed in laminated bags that were probably intended for restaurant use.
Every now and they they get some single origin. I’ve seen random Ugandan, Mexican, but nothing that would be considered terribly expensive like Kona, Blue Mountain, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, or stuff like that.
It’s stuff that the wholesalers are trying to get rid of cheaply before it expires.
That stuff isn’t bad at all, most of the time.
Just don’t buy the obvious cheap instant, and it’s fine.
zabadoh@ani.socialto Coffee@lemmy.world•Where do you get your beans? A coffee shops thread2·21 days agoGrocery Outlet, a US nationwide discount grocery chain that specializes in discounted products from overproduction runs.
A surprisingly diverse selection of coffee is usually available, and lets me sample different varieties, some even in whole bean.
Some that I’ve tried near its “best by” date has been decent.
Their house brand has been pretty good.
Lots of websites seem to have M2’s cone burrs, and matching ring burrs in stock.
And also the paddle wheel.
You don’t have to buy it directly from Baratza.

Before you say “it’s not the same”, you have to understand that you’re moving to an entirely different non-Chemex product anyway, so you’re going to have to experiment with what products work for you as well.

It’s made by the parent company of NutriBullet, Alchemy Worldwide, which is American.

Refillable K pods worked great for me, until I tried French press which tasted so much better.
Now my jaded taste buds say even fp tastes weak compared to aeropress, cucumella and moka pot.

They still do that, even with Nintendo games, so how do they get away with that?
And don’t they owe something to the developers of the emulators.
From what I have heard, the Italians use milk/cream to cut the bitterness of their espresso and moka pots.
I kind of hate the bitterness that I get out of my moka pot, so I can believe that.
Otherwise, I find that a well brewed coffee (French press, aeropress, cucumella, moka pot) is so rich in oils, that they really don’t need anymore fat.
Something like instant tho… Needs creamer desperately.
But sweetener… I hate coffee without sweetener.
I managed to get a used Baratza Encore off Craigslist relatively cheap for $100, and there were other good choices that I could have gone with.
As for K cups, it’s the gateway drug, but I sort of quickly moved on. A lot of people started there, so much respect to their marketing department, if not so much their product development and quality assurance.
And the environmental cost of all that plastic…

zabadoh@ani.socialto Science@mander.xyz•Exposure to Sucralose and Its Effects on Testicular Damage and Male Infertility: Insights into Oxidative Stress and Autophagy3·2 months agoEnh, I didn’t want to be fertile anyway.
Blooming coffee grounds does have some effect on the final brew. https://www.seriouseats.com/the-hows-and-whys-of-blooming-coffee
But in a French press, I just fill it up to my mark, wait a few seconds, and swirl the grounds around to get rid of the CO2 bubbles.
Of my rotation of brewers, I find myself enjoying the coffee that I get out of my cucumella, the Neapolitan flip over brewer, the most.
Intense, rich flavor from just about any kind of dark roast, even a little viscosity, with a minimum of fuss compared to a moka pot.
My moka pot gives even more intense flavor, but it’s just too much work to clean, and takes too long because it actually requires you to boil the water inside it to actually work.
I really, really hate prying the filter funnel out of the moka pot boiler.
So much so that I put a dent along the edge of the funnel so that I can more easily pry the damned thing out, which is something I have to do twice in the brewing process, which gets old really fast.
