Coffee in the coach

[sheridany]

That coffee brewing device looks interesting. With fuel prices these days that could be expensive to make coffee. . The DW has made it clear. No more coffee brewing devices. Great to see @Neal making delicious pour over coffee.

For those that want something smaller and more portable, you can use various drippers like this with these filters. I carry these in the coach and have the chemex at home.

Okay @sheridany, why is my coffee filter developing a pulse? I pour in the water and all of the sudden my filter has a heart beat. And water overflows a little. Have I stumbled on some life saving discovery?

 

[sheridany]

Assuming this is the first pour, we call it the bloom which is releasing the gases from the beans. A very important step in pour over of no more than 50 grams of water. I am not sure what you mean by the water overflows. Do not fill up to the top of the chemex. You should do 3-4 small pours so it drains adequately.

 

[Neal]

Ahhh yes, it just bubbles and as I pour 2.2 gallons in at a time it spits back up some at the end where the filter is not really flush against the glass.

I found another coffee maker for you guys.

I am wondering if we can use our TSD Logistics card to buy fuel for those coffee makers? I am trying to imagine that high volume nozzle putting fuel into the burner tank?

Can I just get my bubbling pour over coffee mastered first?? I still have that damn square filter on my desk. I'm going to figure it out!

Have you considered a shot of tequila instead?

I'm busy modeling the filter in Fusion 360. No time for that.

Once you have finished the cad drawing of the filter, I have added an option to my pour-over process. On the second pour after the bloom, from 50-150 grams of water added, pick up the chemex and give it a light shake to ensure all the beans are covered from the pour. Very effective, and it helps enrich the flavor even more.

Exercised restraint this morning. Minimal first pour for the heart beat, once "coded" I added more water and all was delicious. I do pour over the grinds on the second pour to get them back to the bottom. Another nice benny of these filters is when boondocking it minimizes cleanup. I'm on water/electric here and gasping for "grey" tank air. Heading to full hookups today but 7 days of boondocking, maybe more, starts Sunday.

You should be wetting the filter before you put the beans in and dump the water before adding the beans.

How about 3D printing a filter to your exacting specifications

Don’t give him any ideas because the next thing he does will be pineapple infused filters.

You can't just set a puzzle aside. I'm close, I rotated the square filter and things look better now.

While I think this is a good idea and I do it, this is one of the perks of the white filters. The brown ones typically need to be rinsed before use, the white ones from chemex don't require this. They've already been rinsed/bleached, or whatever per their video.

A coffee aficionado told me about a small roaster to try and I was very impressed. A level of flavor that is better than some of the brands I have tried.

About Us

Our Story It all started with frequent trips back to our homeland in Costa Rica, which serves coffee with tremendous flavor while most people in the U.S. were satisfied with tasteless and bitter coffee. We found the same with coffee from Hawaii and Jamaica. We then realized the common thread...
