That ingredient sounds more like viet coffee simply because of evaporate and condense milk together and a lot of crushed ice. i might be wrong tho!! i bet the first sip is kinda "strong" with some caffeine kick and then the sweetness break through? then as the ice melts it gets better. well thats my first sip of Viet coffee in HCMC itself.

Btw any of you make pumpkin spice latte before?

Wow 1:8 Ratio for cold brew, interesting!! it should taste quite intense.... and but for french press grind size for 24H i think it should be good. IDK but good to know!! Thanks

How it taste?? i hate the smells of stale beans (Medium roast)!! so i can't imagine cold brew using them. maybe because you are using dark roast which i don't/never simply because i like bright/flavourful coffee.

Hey try em out and let us know it will be interesting to know!! haha else just ditch it in the garden!

My cold brew recipe is usually 1:12 and beans that are close to 14 days after opening because can't finish in time. Peak time before the beans go stale.... i don't go as coarse as french press more of a drip/pour over size...and only 8H brew time! do it before bed time and wake up the next morning discard the coffee and the brew last for 2 weeks. Basically you will taste all the notes stated in the bag of beans minus the acidity.... awesome experience to taste!!

Haha Malaysia boleh la!! but atleast bean shipper honour your deal, and am sure they will...

Wow interesting!! where you buy from? btw haven't tried magnolia milk....maybe should give it a go and see.. so far my best and favourite milk is still 1. farm house, 2. farm fresh, 3. pura.

Great to know!! thanks... time to pickup magnolia fresh milk then!! on cold chain breaking is true story..... sometimes supermarket staff treats milk and yogurt like on the shelf products, just put outside and delay placing it in the fridge which will affect its quality. have a great coffee week!!

when i started i use to microwave the milk for 30second! will get the milk to the right temperature then use the ikea milk beater to foam it up. do not heat up milk in direct heat, as it will over heat the milk and spoil the taste.

Have fun brewing!!

Woah HUGE difference. one is single boiler and another is heat exchanger. it will be better if you let us know what type of coffee drinker you are. Espresso or milk base, if Both then get the oscar 2 but then again at both the price better go for oscar 2.

Search on mudah.com for some good deals too.

@Luvox Hmmm how do you find the build quality and also the fit? u using standard basket or ?? btw good price that does the job well!!

Thank you for your honest review. I'm a single dose person too and no i don't dose till the lips like what most pros do.. so i do find getting lvl tamp kinda frustrating at times, as i usually shake and use a stick to stir and tamp. but i guess under rm100 its a good deal and if it don't work it will be my weight balancer on the grinder. haha

yeah sette looks promising!! an all rounder grinder

There are some really good 2nd hand grinders around, Doser or doserless:

http://www.mudah.my/Eureka+Mignon+MK2+espr...er-46654092.htm

LOL bro!! thats like overkill but i prefer the ceado E37S mainly for its cleaning and calibration which i think its the best!!

Hahaha #thestruggleisreal yeah the mignon is indeed frustrating but it does its job pretty well... yeah the Mazzer SJ is a steal provided the motor runs and everything else intact. a replacement burrs are not too expensive. i just don't like it being a doser but that personal preference.

Haha!! well if you want a stovetop espresso and steamer u know who to look for!! its a great learning tool and makes good coffee, plus u can practice latte art!!

i have one for sale!!

http://www.mudah.my/Eureka+Espresso+Coffee...er-49493867.htm

i believe this is the first generation but heck its still a good grinder for you to consider!!

ps: Im not affiliated with the seller! Just sharing!!

Ditto for me too!!! Burr size does matter in the flavour of the cup! but ofcoz if you want "multipurpose" (Limit to Pour over and espresso) grinder the sette is on the money!

one is proven commercial grade grinder while the other is new! or i should say just preference lah! coz i make espresso most of the time thus an SJ is a capable >10 years of performance.

Or you can get a stovetop espresso maker with a steam wand for steaming milk?

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3958529

YEs its my pre-love espresso maker!! super love it and makes good coffee!! unless u really want a machine <2.5K will be the one low suggested!

i have a spare fiorenzato Evo burrs (64mm) but i not sure does it fit in yours! LOL if you check and it fits then you can let me know!

RM170!!

Both should taste similar?

1 if you are using the same basket but different dose then yes lower dose will give u a wet puck because of the gap between the puck and brew head.

No the puck is not an indicator of anything except for messy cleaning, and whats important is the shot of yield and time.

Your tamp pressure will affect your yield time and also your grind settings nothing to do with the taste.

My recipe is dose 18-20g, yield 36-45g espresso - 28-32 sec into 8oz cup or sometime espresso 4oz cup!

Magnolia is damn hard to get most of the time sold out!! farm house damn expensive Fresh Farm OK but dislike packaging (Plastic bottle) HL damn its my worst experience because lazy to go out buy milk but now I'm using good day fresh milk which i think its OK and comparable to magnolia and more widely available.

Have a fantastic Coffee Week!! Shout out to Beanshipper.com Black Friday Sales!!!

Waliao not fair!! i always go jaya grocer the yellow box is either "none" or "one" box left!! don't even need to talk about the barista milk!

Btw are you home barista or owns a small cafe? the amount of milk!

@d33 i did use pura before too but its as expensive as Farm house so magnolia or good day still good value!
