QUOTE(coffee_kopi @ Apr 19 2017, 09:08 PM) dear......fresh milk in malaysia is about the same! except the F&B grade, otherwise most of the fresh milk in town is about that same....... to get good milk form...... Temp, milk protein and milk fat is the main key! Not all fresh milk is the same when you steam it up. some sweeter some creamier some watery some foamy, not all cows are fed with the same grass and not all are harvested the same?! i think what u say "milk suck" are refer to taste! QUOTE(dwRK @ Apr 20 2017, 12:15 AM) You still have lots to learn...you do realized that one has to foam it just right to pour what I did...the fact that it breaks down so fast... means this milk sucks for art...as well as taste... This i have to agree! some milk just sucks! stick with the "common" ones Farmhouse, farm fresh, goodday, magnolia (yellow box). ...window to stretch very narrow... microfoam not very stable... mouth feel not very good... not enough sweetness... not very fragrant... all my opinion of course... I didn't like it day one... still hate it on day two... worst fresh milk I've tried... |

QUOTE(felicious @ Apr 21 2017, 02:11 PM) ya. It has the black knob. I tried remove the black knob and try to froth, but I didn't get any foam. Will try again this weekend. Problem is, Tesco doesn't sell small box of milk, and I only make a few cups of coffee on weekend QUOTE(ymeng85 @ Apr 21 2017, 03:40 PM) If you remove the knob then you'll need to change the technique of frothing too To help you visualised what meng just said! Watch >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Suk60t1Bdhk...82C8005EBFCDEAF May have to lower the pitcher a bit more to get the psttt psttt sound. Keep experiementing!

QUOTE(junsuke @ Apr 27 2017, 04:37 PM) Hi everyone, Ahhh wait for the sette 30 its made for filters!! I'm also considering on getting a grinder for pourover. I'm currently using a hario mini mill, but I'm constantly getting a lot of fines. Have thought of upgrading. Anyone of you have any ideas between the Akira electric grinder, commandante hand grinder or precision hand ground? Initially wanted to save up for the baratza sette, but reviews said it's not as good for filter as it is for espresso https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Fi0QHUV0qo |

QUOTE(look.eye @ May 16 2017, 02:18 PM) Hi sifusss, Awesome but TBH the machine is not that important! any HX with E61 machine will definetly give you many generation to come if you take care of it well basically no service or repairs needed! they are build to last! be it bezzera or rocket or profitec or NV. I'm currently doing some research for my next coffee machine. Read a little about PID, want to ask if it is really that important for us home user? Also one of the factor in my next machine would be durability, would like it to last for many years. Checked out on Breville online, seems to be quite suitable but then IMHO it won't last as long as those Bezzera's type of E61 group head machines. The Rancilio Silvia is very simple and nice but it doesn't have a PID on it. The Rocket Appartamento is also very nice, with HX, but it also doesn't have a PID on it. Also it is a lot more expensive than the Rancilio Silvia. The service and repair for the machines also are quite important in case of things breaks down. I know Breville service should be quite easy to find around Malaysia since a lot of places selling their machines. But for those like Rancilio, Rocket, or Bezzera, anyone knows where I can get them fix if there's a problem? Any recommendations from all the sifus here? First thing first you need a grinder to match your intended espresso machine because if its a poor grinder it will give mediocre results even with a 10k machine. to start cheap maybe with pour overs V60 or Aeropress! have a caffeinated journey ahead! |

QUOTE(kenlui @ May 31 2017, 08:56 PM) Finally this has arrived. Nice!! Congrats!! [attachmentid=8863125] Still getting used to the more powerful steam wand. Anybody knows why why i'm getting a less silky milk compared to my old delonghi? There is only very minmal foam on the top of milk, temperature is actually already higher than the 50-60 degrees range. I'm thinking it's my angle issue. Time to make some good coffee!! on the milk you need to inject air earlier and then make the milk swirl. that will give u better foam, also adjusting the angle. 1-2 practice you will make it eventually!! @luvox yeah i think @d33 must be mistaken or maybe he have special source?! |

QUOTE(flowerhorn @ Jun 2 2017, 01:11 AM) Question. How much dry coffee do you use and what is the yield that you are getting? Traditionally I understand that a single shot yields 30g and double shot 60g of espresso. I assume dry coffee means the grinds? the "standard" yield is 1:2 for single or double. 7g in 14g out or 19 gram in and 38g out, but ofcoz its up to your taste. sometimes when the crema hits 60ml you stop but u don't get 60g out because of CO2, so i prefer weight base for consistency. Have fun experimenting, no right or wrong just preference! |

QUOTE(dwRK @ Jun 2 2017, 02:22 PM) I advocate stopping by color (blonding)... this way your coffee flavor will be more consistent, just either a bit stronger or weaker...never sour or bitter... Thats a good indication too. but when i wake up my eyes are not fully open to the colour so just depend on weight. hahaha I only weigh when changing beans to get my grinder to the ballpark...after which is just two scoops (16-18g) for my double (50-55ml) and runs anywhere 25-45s...sometimes even 50s when I overdoses... lol... |
