Matt Perger has a method which doesn't rely on high end meters.

It's actually on his youtube channel.

In my opinion, his tips are usually spot on and easy to understand. Doesn't echo the other things many people said before and is for one actually easy to duplicate IRL.

It's not really that "off". Just ask them for the dates.

Granted, the brews these "stores" have these days are not really worth paying for (considering how lazy they've become), Coffea is probably out of the many 2nd wave stores, the only one who still pours frothed milk properly.

One thing I realized when getting an espresso setup, is one can really appreciate why it is worth while paying 10 bucks for a cup and understand at the same time why it also isn't.

The oscar is great provided u mod it

It's basically a musica with some parts removed.

Once you get whatever's missing from musica's components you'd have a mini musica which performs the same.

P.S. shameless plugs, but whoever's too pussy to mod their oscar I can offer my services for a bag of coffee.

Horrible idea with the HX + grinder.

Two possible outcomes:
1. No one drinks coffee anymore. (most people may like coffee, but they don't like making them because it's a huge hassle)
2. The grinder/hx will die of a horrible death very soon.

I'd say get an expensive superautomatic and leave the maintenance to the service men.

EDIT: Wrong info, apparently Auresso has new packages for all array of beans instead.

Myespresso as in kfchan's shop?

IMO, having experience both shops:

1. Myespresso - quite efficient in sales, but afterwards he doesn't 'support' you anymore. Pretty much ignored my email asking him about removing the two poles on the k3 for maintenance.
2. cuppa - Incompetence to the maximum. My oscar was bought from them. They said they wanted to "test" it first before sending it out to me. When I received it, the steam knob is totally broken. Turns out some jackass "overturned" it somehow. I had to even escalate to his 'boss' to get shit done. Pretty much will not support them anymore.

IMO, get your aeropress from whatever local store you can find and then pretend their services are good.

Like many here, I'm also on the Auresso subscription.

Brilliant stuff. It's worth the money.

Just saying, some of these asshats (kfchan isn't exactly an asshat in this case, but cuppa definitely is) don't deserve our support. It's a niche enough business as it is. If they want to act like assholes, we should be rather paying more by supporting other shops.

That being said, the aeropress is sold in many places, available locally. You can always pay them a visit and decide if it's worth it.

I got my unit previously from Coffee Ritual. (it's out of stock now, so don't bother lol)

monjava beans?

> equipment provided not enough...

Really ka?

Maybe the beans you pakai no good?

>3 kg a month

>not already using auresso.com.my to reap maximum benefits


Use auresso la...

>latte

U literally piss inside their cups also they won't know the difference.

Crema is not a good indication of quality. It could be, but relying on it is misguided effort at best.

Weigh your shots, time them and taste them. This should ultimately be the benchmark.

try the Lelit PL53 from kfchan

wrong place liao, most here all snobs who don't like starbucks.

nice, now mod it

Oscar + mods = Baby Musica.
