1 notches 60 degree turn?

Yeah.

For me it seems ok with not much sendiment. What type of press are u using? Bodum chamboard?

I'm using a Hario pot. Don't think it makes much of a difference right?
Maybe I'm just not used to sediments in my coffee. Or I might try a slightly coarser grind.

My Starbucks French press is collecting dust. Been brought many yrs. but use not more than 10x.

I have a Krups GVX2, and me too can't get it coarse enough, compared to the pre-ground coffee I bought from Sanfrancisco Coffee.

We use Boncafe Morning Coffee brew at the office

the girl advised to get the ghostrider if having with milk

Ahhh... i miss Proud Mary latte so much~~~~~~~~~~~
Just take a look at their custom made six group Synesso Hydra!!!!

If u dun like sendiments in your coffee, i think Aeropress will suits u more. Very smooth result.

I think I might try to live with the sediments because I'm thinking of investing in a moka pot first.

But then again I was thinking of getting into tea making as well
Will the stainless steel moka pot at Ikea do the job?

If you wan to get moka pot, then try to get Bialetti Brikka. It is the only moka pot that gave you 'crema'.
But for me i nv use moka pot as French Press are more convenient.

my morning cappuccino made with proud mary beans, very smooth taste almost like melbourne one

Selling off my Aeropress. Anyone interested can pm me..

WTS Aeropress

Very nice topic, learn a lot about coffee here...
Tried luwak coffee from bali and malaysia(Paradigm mall), and found out Malaysia better, stronger taste and aroma...
Using french press, hario grinder and highlander beans, all just less than RM300... worth item

I love Highlander beans too. Love their strong aroma espresso base bean.

Trying out the pour-over method (using the lovely Hario Buono ) but I get much more bitter coffee compared to the french press. Am I doing it wrong (over-extracting) or are my beans stale?

they are located right above KK supermart, keep an eye out for that.
and they changed their name to Jin Yi by Ritual Coffee, still run by the same couple Chin & Ee Mei.
Do check out their burger, i like it

Added on December 31, 2012, 4:09 pmwould humbly recommend getting proper milk frothing machine, or a proper machine with the frothing arm if u are interested to venture down the route of espresso and espresso + milk based drinks.
after all, "almost" what you pay is what u get, if u start buying cheaper frother like that u might end up having to wait till cows come home before the milk is really froth to the level and the way u see it is done by the machines.

Added on December 31, 2012, 4:31 pmthere is this cafe call niche cafe in puchong (facebook page http://www.facebook.com/CafeNiche?fref=ts
address: 6-02 Jalan Kenari 18A, Bandar Puchong Jaya, Puchong, 47100 Selangor, Selangor, Malaysia) who sells blue mountain coffee via pour over.
during non promo period it is priced at RM25 per cup.
i am still learning to appreciate coffee and the fuss about the different flavors so i am yet to be able to gauge how good it is, to be honest.
