    Do you like milk coffee drink?

    You can brew 18gr of freshly ground coffee, 90gr of boiling water. You should get 60-70gr of coffee.

    Then pour 120-150gr of warm milk (around 50-60 degree celsius).

    I've read good things about 1zpresso JX-PRO if you want to go the hand grinder route. I don't do espresso at home, so I bought the 1zpresso K-plus myself.

    I don't use Prismo for its intended use, I think haha. I use it mostly to replicate inverted brewing, but without the flipping. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I'll give it a try ☕

    I guess if I do upgrade to 1zpresso,what I'll improve is more on speed and workflow (grind setting, magnetic catch cup, etc)

    Seems like brewing with boiling water is pretty much ok for light to medium roast coffee. So I guess I'm gonna sticking with my electric gooseneck kettle haha.

    Great insight, much appreciated.

    Grinder is definitely on the expensive side 😅 but I really like the way it sets grind size setting.

    It's on the outside. It's an absolute position setting (no more reset to zero before resetting), should make it much easier to experiment with grind setting. It's also supposedly much faster to grind.

    Although, according to a lot of reviews (who seems to know what they're talking about haha), the Comandante C40 produces the best tasting coffee.

    I guess I need to save up to buy a new grinder haha

    Hi, I'm pretty new to browsing coffee at home.

    Currently using aeropress, timemore c2 titanium, and electric gooseneck kettle with no temp control.

    The coffee I'm making is pretty good (to my novice taste buds) but I'm looking to elevate that. I'm planning on upgrading either the the grinder or the kettle.

    From what I understand, grind quality can affect taste, but consistent water temperature should also help improving workflow and taste as well.

    Which one do you think is the better upgrade in terms of producing better coffee?

    For grinder I'm now considering 1zpresso K-plus. For kettle, I'm looking at Timemore fish kettle.

    Thank you.

    I've been playing The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles.

    I've finished part 1 and was quite disappointed. The circumstances felt too forced. I don't know, I haven't played Ace Attorney games in a long time, maybe it has always been this way?

    Hopefully the second part is much better.

    There are stablecoins you can use for that. But then again, there are stablecoin bombs like Tether.

    Indonesia. The government has relaxed the lock downs and restrictions, but the daily new case numbers are still consistently going up (2700-3000+ new cases everyday).

    I know that the economy must start rolling again at some point, but it still worries me. I'm just grateful that I can still work from home.

    I also want enough not to worry about supporting my future kids (planning on having one soon). Right now I worry at how much it's going to cost me in the near future, especially for their education. It's becoming really expensive nowadays.
