Start there and report back.

I have a grind and brew coffee maker and get Trader Joe's organic beans-I think Sumatra is what I am into lately.

Fill moca master to 8. Put 1/2 cup scoop of any coffee in filter cup and brew. Boom.
Hot coffee.

Pour overs are pretty easy to do at home. I stopped going to Starbucks and only do pour overs now.

Dump the Dunkin ground coffee into the filter. Turn on the Mr. Coffee. Done.

Does getting ordained online help the taste also?

Personally, I don’t even aim for good coffee, but settle for instant with a pinch of salt to reduce bitterness and a lot of sweetener.

However, if you want to go down the rabbit hole of chasing better coffee, I highly recommend James Hoffman’s Youtube channel. He has made a career out of the art and science of coffee making. Even as someone who doesn’t want to devote the time, money, or effort into coffee myself, I occasionally find myself getting caught up watching his videos.

This all makes sense to me now. I don't drink coffee (I have a weird bitter aversion) but my husband does. We don't have a coffee maker and he says he "doesn't believe in home made coffee". Now I know why.

- Use an electric kettle to heat filteres water to 205 F and set it to maintain that temp.

- Use high-quality, freshly ground beans only. If you buy in bulk, keep the beans in an airtight container. Any beans that will take longer than two weeks to use should be frozen.

- Buy cone filters. I like hario size 2 (or v02) to make ~4 cups at once. You can compost the filter plus grounds afterward. Some say to wet the filter before adding beans but I’m not convinced this does anything.

- the first pour should just be enough to cover the coffee. Let it sit for a minute before the second pour.

- the second pour is where the magic happens

- if you want a little extra flavor, add ground coriander to your pour over. Or add real vanilla after you pour your cup.

I love coffee.



size 2 for 4 cups seems like a weak brew. How many grams of coffee?


I was mistaken; it's actually a size 3 for four or five cups.

I don't measure coffee beans precisely but probably use about 16-20g per cup. This is my main grinder: https://www.oxo.com/shop/bundles/conical-burr-coffee-grinder-steel-coffee-pop-container-1-7-qt-with-scoop-bundle.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=2024-03-01_kw_na_bndl_na_multi_oxo_bndl_na_na_na_n/a_na_na_na_na_dtc_na_na&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=20749499694&gbraid=0AAAAADHFonB6ESaPW9E1ZMRizBH7HPIub&gclid=Cj0KCQjwucDBBhDxARIsANqFdr1m_QKe1vVsV24QebJ5oGY4g0L9lD-LzYEEZmFTyg1MK5iXYlyOyl4aAjCOEALw_wcB

I have a backup hand grinder that works well, but it only grinds one or two cups at a time.
