What's your coffee today? What brew method? Photos

[Lil Cooties]

G'day all.
Had a "Magic" (double ristretto, made into short flat white) with an orange and date biscotti on the side, and made a latte for my mother.
Later on, I wanted to practice and try out my new small aluminium phin, so I ground and brewed 8 grams of medium roast mystery beans from the supermarket. I think too much for this small a brewer (which only holds about 60ml of water, plus about a 30ml bloom), and the wrong roast.

Afterwards I brewed a cup for my brother with the darkest roast we have open, some Skybury house blend french press preground, about 6 grams.

Good morning, coffee crew.

Mad Priest Dark Night of the Soul. French press. Black.

It's 75° in Music City right now with a high around 91° today. Cloudy with a slight chance of showers this afternoon. Only 5 hours of sleep last night but I don't think I woke up once, so not bad. The GF and I got to catch up yesterday evening. It was great after not seeing each other for almost 2 weeks. Due to a lot of Mühle R41 talk in the "Journals and Diaries" my R41 is out and ready to go for tomorrow's shave. Not sure what blade I'm going to pair with it this time around. I'm leaning toward a Lord Silver Star or a Treet 7 Days Platinum.

Have a blessed Tuesday, crew.

Cold brew for me this morning - A batch I made with Happy Mug Strong and Gentle Bear Blend. excellent for a hot day. I’ll be walking a golf course to spectate my son - and not one that is amenable to walking. The Heat index will be approaching 100+.

Hey, all.

The Major started his day w/a cuppa iced Brighter Days from Black + Bold, as an iced shot from the Aeropress poured on ice . Good stuff on a hot morning presaging an even hotter day - 94F/35C.

Dunkin and trying to stay cool. It feels like we went from spring to late summer. We had a torrential thunderstorm yesterday and we are expecting more today.

How are the Lieutenants this morning, Major?

Not sure, since none are here. The older daughter is on her way to a GS event the younger daughter is at overnight camp, and both boys are w/their bio father.

The K9 officers are doing as well as could be expected for two little ones w/permanent fur coats.

So, the Major + his CO are left sweating on their own. Yay.

Today's brew (same as yesterday's brew): Happy Mug Coffee (Erie, PA) - Rwanda Anaerobic Process beans using the Stagg XF with the Stagg XF filter (for a larger dose) and Flair Pro dispersion screen.

This was the last of the beans of this type, so I just made a larger brew to finish it off. I debated going with the Kalita 185 brewer but I had not tried these beans with that brewer before and didn't want to risk finishing the bag on a potentially bad note. I just went with good setup I already tried with these beans (just upped the dose).

Tried some Vietnamese coffee last night

About five minutes to drip thru.

My mate came around today for coffee, so I gifted him his phin (and a tin of condensed milk of course), showed him how to use it, brewed some and ground the coffee he was given in Vietnam for him.
The coffee was an espresso blend, I think of dark roast robusta and some lighter roast arabica, it was very tasty. The condensed milk also helped. I also pulled a single shot espresso to taste it, that was very tasty too.

Had a lovely chat talking about all sorts of things, movies, travel, food etc. Towards the end we got onto the topic of shaving as I had to return a cartridge razor of his that we ended up with after a travelling trip together years ago, and I info-dumped about wetshaving. He was quite interested, and so I ended up giving him a Tech-style Lord razor and Omega S-Brush I had spare (a shop sent me duplicates of both), some Palmolive cream, a bottle of Nivea Deep aftershave, a styptic pencil and some blades (Astra SP, BIC Chrome Platinum, Derby Extra, Lord Super Chrome). I think I probably overwhelmed him a bit but he took it in his stride, I hope he enjoys it.
He's off to Singapore and Sri Lanka in the next week for the next stage of filming, and later onto Japan, so he said he'd keep an eye out for blades and wetshaving goodies.

Today was the first brew with Blacksmith Coffee Roastery (Lindsborg, Kansas) - Swedish Mellanrost.
I used the Timemore B75 with Timemore filter using the Coffee Chronicler B75 recipe.

Americano pulled with Happy Mug Zambia Anaerobic. Half & half was added.

It's a pleasure to you in this thread, sir.

Welcome to the "Coffee Crew" and join us for a brew often.

Good morning, coffee crew.

Eight O'Clock Original. French press. Black.

It's 76° in Music City right now with a high around 90° today. Another cloudy day ahead. Didn't sleep well last night. Maybe 5 hours. I did get a nap in yesterday though. Not much going on today other than inquiring about some new equipment for the studio. I'm going to need more coffee this afternoon as a booster. I can already feel it.

Have a blessed Wednesday, friends.
