When I was using a counter top brewer I was using the Oxo Brew 9 cup. Great automatic coffee maker that sort of simulates a pour over method. Also I agree with Jesse on stainless steel mugs. Not a fan of the flavor it gives to coffee. Great video guys!
Great video. You guys are a pleasure to hang out with! Until I save up for the moccamaster, here is my Mr Coffee heck: ratio of 60g Joe to 1000g water, medium grind, start brew but remove the carafe below. This will hold the water in the grounds. I keep the lid open and gently stir the grounds until they are well saturated and bloomed. Then I put the carafe back and walk away. IMO the coffee comes out pretty nice. Thanks guys!!!
As always great videos very much appreciated! I'm brewing on a Cuisinart with a stainless-steel carafe. I've adjusted my coffee to water ratio, based on feedback from you guys.
I use a Bunn home coffee maker. I think it's been awhile since I've upgraded my coffee game. I find that the preground Don Francisco coffee in the coffee cans 12 ounce work well. I think the Bunn has lines for 10 5 ounce cups of coffee. I think it is the velocity style brewer. I think I use about 2 2 TBS scoops of coffee, per 50 ounce of water from my tap.
Well it sounds like you have a repeatable method and that is important. Glad you have it dialed in. I have a new video coming in a couple days of a coffee maker review. So subscribe and look for that.
@@BrewtusRoasting Thanks. It works for me. I am guessing that the 10 cup refers to 50 ounces of water. The Bunn holds water in the reservoir. I drink my coffee over ice most of the time, or cooled off from the hot temperatures. Maybe it is more uncommon that way, but it is what it is. I have been known to be fond of the frappuchino's from starbucks or whatever, even in the supermarket vanilla flavored was nice. Most of the time, it is not a big deal. I tend to save by not going to starbucks often.
Great video! Biggest improvement for me buying a cheap digital scale and measuring the coffee everytime to make it consistent. Of course grinding your own is also better (but more expensive) A trick i did too before with cheap coffee makers is what you mentioned with turning off the machine to agitate the coffee but make sure to take the carafe out first so the water stays in the brewer. Agitate and bloom for 20-30s, turn the machine back on and put carafe in. Possible improvement (not related to coffee) is probably better mics? Amazing content and i love your coffee. Can’t wait for the next one. Cheers!
Great informational and entertaining video. You can make good coffee with a coffee maker you just need good equipment, great fresh coffee (Brewtus!), filtered water. good burr grinder and proper dosing with a scale. Do what these guys say and you will be brewing great coffee. Always look forward to the Brewus videos!
Nice vid guys! Lots of great tips. I'm rocking the Breville Precision Brewer and it's pretty sick. Lots of customization features including a bloom. It can use both a cone, #4 basket for half pots, or a large basket style filter for the full, party-pot. Dialing in the right grind size is-as aways- the most important part of really nailing it.
I owed this coffee machine and honestly it is far better than the cheap me coffee maker, the water gets at least somewhat hot and the shower head isn't bad
if your coffee pot only has an on off switch, could you just turn it off when it starts to drip for blooming then turn it back on after about 30 seconds?
I have that exact coffeemaker. I start it for about 1:15; turn it off for 30s then restart. I make 500ml with about 34 g. It’s ok. Leaning towards the ozo 8 cup.
Jeffery that's a good ratio so as long as you are using a quality grinder and good coffee you are probably doing the best you can with it. Nice work! I don't have any experience with the Oxo 8 Cup but I've heard good things. In a similar price range check out my review of the Simply Good Coffee brewer.
im a new cofffee nerd all i have at the moment is a k cup machine and wanting to do better. i am starting to dabble in the chemestry of it all im looking into a v60 or a chem x for starters but im a total noob altho i am trying to learn....
I agree that The Bonavita is great! It’s the perfect size for my needs and brews a great batch of Brewtus. It was the perfect gift from my favorite roaster! 😉
Well, I heard,(wow, that's hot). You didn't measure the temperature of that “hot” coffee. It would have been nice to know what temperature the Cuisinart was brewing at. I must be the only one who hates fooling with Technivorm. I replaced the Technivorm with the Oxo 9 cup. I'd have to start with closing the brew basket off on the Technivorm, wait 30 seconds, give the grounds a little stir, and then open it up and let it brew to get a good pot. The Oxo 9 should be called the (auto bloom) drip coffee maker. For the 100-dollar machines, I always liked the Cuisinart and Capresso machines.
@BrewtusRoasting It seems to be an automatic (pour over), my opinion. Anyway, it makes an excellent cup of coffee. I had just received a shipment from Stumptown Coffee, just one of many great roasters, and I was very happy with the exceptional pots that required no effort on my part, other than grinding.
I believe the Coffee Maker you are using in the video is the DCC-1200 series. Cuisinart recommends using One Tablespoon of coffee per 5 ounces of water. When I was using my Cuisinart, I found that making a half batch or only however much water was needed to complete a brew cycle in the 5-6 minute range gave better results. I found that a normal brew cycle for a full pot on that coffee maker took over 9 minutes. resulting in bitter coffee. Also, you can lift the lid to reach in and stir the grounds during a brew cycle, but the water would end up dripping onto the hot plate I now use the Moccamaster KBT-741. I also purchased the flat bottomed brew basket and lid and spray arm for the Moccamaster Grand and use that with the 741 sometimes. I did have to modify the brew basket and lid a bit to loosely fit against the reservoir. Now I get to use a Flat Bottomed Brew Basket or a Cone brew basket. Lighter mouthfeel with a Flat Bottomed basket and not quite as strong. But, I only use it for a full batch. I cannot drink a 1-16 ratio. Much too strong for me. Unless I am doing a pour over of only one cup.. @BrewtusRoasting
If it was left on the burner for more than five minutes I guarantee I could. I'm always up for a challenge. Let me think of a way to try the challenge.

Sounds like you have your method dialed in! thanks for the kind words on the video. I need to get a new one out really soon.

It is better than a Mr Coffee for sure.
if your coffee pot only has an on off switch, could you just turn it off when it starts to drip for blooming then turn it back on after about 30 seconds?
Yes, you could try that as a bloom function. Let it run enough to wet the grounds, then turn it off for 30 seconds to a minutes.

Good luck! Get away from those pods and just buy any coffee from a local roaster or us!
What do you think of the BREVILLE , that’s what I use. Loved your
video and it reminded me to visit your place and have delicious coffee!
I think the Breville is a good Brewer. Thanks for stopping by the roastery!

You are right. I believe it's the burner that makes it so hot, not the brew temp. I've heard good things about the Oxo but I haven't tried one yet.

If you’re saying it’s too hot, please take the temperature. Hot is very relative.
Good point. I will do that in the future.
Actually, the Cuisinart's carafe is 5 ounces per cup for the coffee maker you are using.
Thanks for the heads up!
