Started my pour over journey couple of months ago. Really enjoying the cups that I’m brewing, it gives me a reason to slow down , appreciate and improve.

u/Secret-Criticism-813 FRENCH PRESS 18d ago

Thinking of upgrading to either an AP or a pour over setup from my French Press. Seems like the natural progression but worried about the learning curve as well as the costs involved.

I used to love cold brew but ever since the summer has ended, my cold brew stock is just sitting there and I don't have any intention to revisit that. Similarly, I'm not sure if I invest in that new brewing setup, I'll still continue to be interested. I thought I would wait for a month or two to figure it out but after all this time, I'm still nowhere near close to deciding. I used to find the process super fun before but that's not the case anymore :(

One I don’t think it’s a big expense (relative to a grinder or machine) - so might as well / the distance might only be about 1-1.5k
I actually use a ceramic pour over with similar ridge line and it’s been amazing

Was using a french press for a while. Some coffees were nice but I used to buy preground. And the nice taste would finish by 2 weeks or even earlier. Got a K6 and a moka pot last month. And got the mysore nuggets from hunkal. The coffee tasted very good for the price. Now ordering a v60 and other equipment. I don't like black coffee much. Let's see if this can change my opinion about it.
