How To Level Up In Coffee as a Barista - Coffee Roaster Warm Up Sessions Podcast
I love the coffee secret Santa idea! Unfortunately, I don’t have enough coffee enthusiasts around me…maybe I need to move to Bellingham lol! 😆
It would be a fun idea. Bellingham is always welcoming more coffee enthusiasts!
The ‘thought’ of Swedish fish…
I’m gonna use that from now on
Please do!
YES I WAS GOING TO SAY MY CHEMEX IS PROPAGATING PLANTS. Idk why I’m yelling 😅😂
because we've all been quietly doing it and it feels good to say it out loud haha
my water goes straight down the middle of the grind and forms a hole straight through, what does that indicate?
Are you pouring in circles or are you just pouring right in the middle? If you give the dripper a swirl in between pours like we mention here, that should not be the case.
I got the Onyx calendar for myself this year and I’m absolutely enthralled with it. 11/10. Definitely a top end gift item. Third Wave Water is the easiest hack for anyone to up their game and a packet fits easily inside a Christmas card.
The Onyx calendar is sweet! We have yet to pick one up, but really want to at some point. It looks phenomenal.
I dont know why but the way this dude is so meticulous to keep it all perfect to the gram made me violently angry. Like environmentalists who's ideas are ungrounded in reality. It a me problem. Lol. Great video, thank you! Sorry Im so....yeah.
Sorry to make you violently angry but happy to hear you still think it's a great video haha
amazing conversation folks! thanks so much sharing, learned a lot from this one and very excited about more content
Thanks for listening. We're happy to hear this one hit home for you. Always trying to share ideas that will benefit y'all!
I had this exact conversation today with my favorite local coffee shop - when do you know it’s better to serve what you’ve already pulled versus taking a few minutes longer to redial in? Sometimes a slightly unusual pull might yield a bonanza of desirable flavors even though it missed a time or volume window. A little bitterness or astringency in the background might not be worth the hold up. Great conversation topics.
Yes, and it's a fine balance. You also don't want to send a guest away with a poorly dialed in shot. That's why being dialed in with your workflow, systems, and gear is so important. The hope is you don't ever have to choose between the two. Thanks for listening!
So true on all points! Best take away, I think was for planning your time for scheduling tasks... just double it! Learned this one the hard way because you guys are so right, time just flies, and everything you need to do requires a lot of it.
Happy this was beneficial and resonated with you. We're considering making a 5 year update on what we wish we knew earlier. It's been a huge learning experience
lol is this for real?
Yes, this is real
If I double up this recipe, how long will my total time amount to???
Not really sure. We wouldn't recommend just doubling up the recipe, however, I'd guess maybe closer to 4:15 - 4:30min
@@MirrorCoffeeRoasters Thanks for the quick reply! That's about the mark I am hitting. I would love to see a video on how to do a pour-over for more than a cup.
What is that coffee scale you're using? I want to get one of those!!!
This is the Acaia Pearl scale
Watching a video like this after watching "CoffeeTok" feels like going to church after a weekend in vegas.
Haha amazing
❤
Right back to you
holy fuck this is so ridiculous. its 8 am i just need to be caffeinated
Valid
This was the first year I barely had the opportunity to drink Ethiopian coffees. A huge bummer, they’re always my favorite but I just haven’t had that revelation cup yet.
Yeah, it's been a weird year for Ethiopians. Like we said, maybe we need to try more of them to find the one, but strange.
Clear and simple. I especially appreciate the tips at the end.
That's what we were going for
For those worried about prolonged hot water contact with plastic leaching with the regular Aeropress, theres a fantastic solution I've been using with stellar results with an alternate brewing method using the original Aeropress. So simple and it's actually way more efficient than the regular way using a lot less grounds to get the same strength coffee. So simple, just boil enough water as if you were brewing to the 1.5 or 2.5 mark in the Aeropress but instead of putting it in the aeropress, just add about 1/2 to 3/4 scoop of grounds to a glass or stainless cup or 12-20 oz milk frothing pitcher and add the boiling water to the same vessel. What you're doing is brewing outside of the Aeropress in a non plastic container, and after it cools, then transfering and pressing it thorugh the Aeropress. The beauty of this method is you can leave the coffee brewing as long as you like and let it cool down to room temperature and get maximum extraction without bad flavors. Then after it has cooled, pour it into the Aeropress and press the cooled coffee. What you've made is a cooled down strong espresso type shot that had only a few seconds of contact time with the plastic. Now you just boil some water to add creamer to or steam some milk to dilute and bring the coffee back up to hot drinking temp. Seems to taste just as good as Brewing the regular way to me, if not better. The verdict is still out on that and I need to do more trials with various types of coffee. You can also use this method to Brew several batches in advance and store in the fridge for coffee concentrate always ready to use.
That's a very interesting approach! Thanks for sharing
This geisha variety is new to Papua New Guinea. Many farmers like it but hard to get the seed or seedlings
There are a few difficulties with the geisha varietal and you have mentioned one of them
Can you pour an espresso with this any possible way? Then froth milk and make a latte or cappuccino?
There isn't any way to make espresso out of this
Maybe the best coffee video on youtube
This is some of the most love we've received in a comment. Appreciate it
Tokyo ghoul coffee style😊
Yes, yes
what's your exact temperature for you water? and TDS as well
In this recipe, we're going 211F. Can't tell you the TDS since that can fluctuates depending on several factors. Also It wouldn't really help much since everyone is working with different equipment, water, and so on.
Why not ml?
Water is both the same in grams as it is in ml.
Love your content! We would be interested to have you on our podcast sometime!
I played with the breville barista pro for a while. It's a great machine for the price. I'm more concerned that if something breaks, its hard to fix and usually you're SOL. It was one of my reasons for going straight to a more prosumer machine first. Buy once cry once I thought. Though I ended up selling my pro 500 (though for $200 less than I bought it) and got a great deal on the Drive.
What did you end up getting after selling your Pro 500? The pro 500 is a great machine.
@@MirrorCoffeeRoasters I got the profitec Drive. The pro 500 is definitely great but I found my self making milk drinks more often then I thought I would to practice latte art (still no where close to Serge's level 😅). I found dialing ina. Coffee was a bit tough with the HX since some coffee I liked at lower temps, but I needed the higher temps for better steam so it was just a little annoying switching between the different temps on the HX.
Fellas, I'm half way through a bag of your WILDER LASSO-GEISHA... I'm shocked. Honestly shocked. Without a doubt the most incredible cups of coffee in my life. Angst is easily defined by watching the content of the bag shrink over a few days. So glad I tried this.
Yess!! We're excited you enjoyed the coffee as much as we did. It was a highlight coffee of 2024 and easily in my top 5 of the year. It was a stunner!!
extra tip: don't measure your coffee in a paper bag, use a cup instead.
Need a coffee filter? We are a manufacturer specializing in coffee filters for 15 years, you can contact me if you need!
Yall gotta get the Aiden. It’s so good. The brews are better than the bloom.
Better than the bloom. Wow...
The Aiden is easy to use, and the brews absolutely SLAP. Easier to use than the XBloom OG 🤣 brews are tastier too
So hyped on this elite batch brew life. We live in a glorious time
I’m rocking a bambino, with a dimmer, 2 varios. Cheap in cost, and I get some of the best espressos around. And it heats up basically instantly. Catering we use a spaziale Vivaldi, and I’ve worked on bar with LM líneas.
The varios crush. Especially the updated versions that are like baby Fortes which is also an underrated grinder.
So true. Varios are def underrated. The steel burrs are v versatile too. From 9 bar shots to sprovers, and filter, they slap even for being “small”
I started with a Hario v60, Hario stovetop kettle, a Baratza Vario, and a scale. I use the same setup to this day except I upgraded my kettle and scale. Next I’m looking to get the Weber HG-2. I think unless you’re willing to bring a cafe setup home, simply enjoy the espresso when you’re out of the house. Save that money to tip your barista.
Yup. We totally get it and you're probably getting amazing cups. Filter coffee is easy that way! Also true, very well said about saving the money to tip your barista
Plus filter is better 😏😉
Two new coffees dropped today! Check them out: bit.ly/36gPLRU
12 clicks on the Comandante is about 10-12 clicks finer than I use for pour over not a few notches finer.
Going a few notches finer than pour over was just reference point for those who are not using a Comandante. My pour over is at 16 - 18 clicks so for me it's not too far away
@@MirrorCoffeeRoasters Fair enough it's not that much finer than Comandante's own chart at 20-35 for filter. But I guess you go that fine if you have super light Scandinavian style coffee like for example from Drop coffee in Stockholm Sweden.
Thanks. Improved my technique with a shorter brewing time, taste is so much better now. Tomorrow gonna try it on Panama Geisha light roast beans😁
That's excellent! Wow, some Panama Geisha light roast. that sounds very nice!
Greetings form indonesia🎉, do i have to change the 13gr because im using Aeropress go
You might need to, because all the water won't fit
I can smell it through the screen ❤
Yessss!!
You explained that so well. Great job!
Thank you!
James Hoffman covered the aeropress and determined the inverted method didn't make the end result taste different enough to taste a difference. I confirmed the same in my own testing. Are you actually able to taste a difference to the coffee in a blind test?
I did watch that Hoffman video and although I haven't personally confirmed the test, I trust his pallet. On the other hand, I went with an inverted here due to adding water first and coffee grounds on top. If done regularly, you'll probably get water dripping before it helps extraction
For me, learning that I have the freedom to dial outside of what is the current suggested parameters ( 1:17, 205F, TBT 3:00-3:00) Cupping to know what potential a coffee has is helpful when brewing the coffee. Some naturals taste like brown water at 1:16, so lower ratios (and temp) can work well. The shop I worked at bought coffee in such a way that we always had coffee that was very fresh. I tried talk with with management, but they didn’t take any input. Trying to dial spro 3 days off roast is a challenge…
Lower temperatures and ratios seem to help naturals a lot especially since sometimes they need to be roasted a little further. That sounds like a disaster really. 3 days off roast and your espresso is pulling inconsistently and probably coming with some weird off flavors you have to settle for
Do I need to preheat the aeropress before pouring the water in
No, you do not
@@MirrorCoffeeRoasters tried this yesterday (3 times). Thank you
Gonna try tomorrow!! Thanks!!
Hope it treats you well! This is best for more developed coffees. I still resort to the original recipe for many coffees
lets go the chapion himself.
straight from the horse's mouth!
Just tried this recipe out with a more medium roast, more developed and actually worked quite well!!! I also diluted it a bit more with 10g of water and it tasted quite pleasant! 🙏🏼
Yes!! So pumped this worked for your more medium roast. Happy to hear that.
Brewing with your trophy?! First time I've seen that.
Only reason was because I didn't want to drive home from the office to pick it up after setting up the cameras and stuff haha.
@@MirrorCoffeeRoasters haha well it makes the video even better! Trying this recipe today.
False
ok
Tried about 10 different championship recipies and this is by far te best one. And you dont need to be in a hurry during preparation. For light roast my grind size in 52 (from dial 0, not absolute 0) on my Kingrinder K6. How would you start dialing in medium roast- going slightly coarser or lowering temperature?
Thank you! It is a very simple recipe that does let you relax a bit. You can also use just about any kettle with temperature control. That's a great question. Actually working on releasing a video this week. I had to dial in a medium roast for the 2024 US Aeropress Championship so I walk through my process in that video
yes please
It was so good out there!
I was shocked to hear you say that a filter could make such a profound difference in the cup. So I spent the last hour googling "Seabreeze" coffee filters. Don't I feel stupid. I finally deduced you were saying SIBARIST. I love this channel btw, Thx!
Filters are crazy that way. One wouldn't think paper would change the quality of your cup, but it really does! Haha that's funny and also not. Sorry, we should have put some links in the description! Thanks for listening and/or watching the pod.
