Re: Introduction and cry for help!

... I'll have to roast ahead a couple of days!! Thanks for this! On another subject, I am fascinated that you can enjoy drip coffee as well as be an espresso aficionado! I came to the US from NZ a couple of years ago and was horrified that Americans were still drinking drip coffee 8-) . Now I think ...

Propane Powered Espresso Machine

I am looking for your help finding a good quality single head espresso maker, or converting one, that I can run entirely off of Propane. I am a total newbie to Espresso making so go easy on me. I became a convert after drinking 6 shots back to back at the ...

Re: Introduction and cry for help!

... my beans and throw them away if the first cup tastes bitter or sour. That's what happened to my Tessitura and the Wow! Bukan Main that came in the espresso sampler (what a waste). I only ever drink espresso. When I buy roasted beans from a local roaster they always smell wonderful straight after ...

Re: Behmor vs IR2?

... to go down faster. My wife loves her Panama, BehmorThing has told me exactly how to set the machine for the next roast. A batch of my personal espresso blend is just dead on, though I'm going to tinker with the blend a trifle - cut the Sumatra, bump the Ethiopian. Can't wait to try one of Tom's ...

Re: Introduction and cry for help!

... for drip the next day after a roast, but they don't really hit their stride for at least three days, and this varies depending on the bean. Espresso roasts often need more rest... I just tried Workshop #8 last Saturday and I found it thin of body, but citrusy and enjoyable on Wednesday with ...

Fire in the Behmor!

So, I wasn't paying attention and I ended up setting fire to the beans while trying to roast some espresso beans. Oops. After that, instead of easily being able to roast 12 oz of beans to a nice, dark roast, I was able to only roast 8 oz of beans. Now I can't roast any beans. ...

Introduction and cry for help!

... that are too dark and ones that are too light, without any apparent rhyme or reason. The Behmor setting I got closest with, for SM's Monkey blend espresso, is 1# P4D-- as per the book, which took me just into second crack - the coffee was slightly on the bitter side but drinkable. For my next ...

Re: KitchenAid Pro Line burr grinder

There are several good mods for the Pro Line grinder. I do agree it's not perfect for espresso out of the box, but if you make it stepless that helps quite a bit. By far the best mod is doing a burr transplant, in which Mazzer Mini burrs are put into the Pro Line. ...

Hello from VA - Home roasting for a Jura Capresso S9

... a couple of weeks ago. I've been exploring ever since. It tasted like no other coffee that I have ever had. It was really good. I have been an espresso fan for probably well over 10 years. I purchased a totally automatic Jura capresso two years ago and now want to venture into the home roasting ...

Re: KitchenAid Pro Line burr grinder

The Pro Line is a great grinder for the money. With a few simple mods it can be fantastic and will work quite well for espresso even without the burr transplant.... contrary to what some say... Hi, I have purchaised KitchenAid grinder. It works great for mokka/French press/..., but ...
