- Hey friends, @jameshoffmann stopped by my apartment a few weeks back to help me upgrade my coffee set-up. James was adamant to upgrade me from my standard instant coffee mix to the ultimate coffee machine which will let me get a perfectly brewed cup of coffee every morning. If you want to get the same equipment I have, you'll find all the links below :)

I remember following both of them on RUclips years ago bc I was a student who need some organizational tips and was a part time barista. Funny I would have never expected them to collaborate but its super cool seeing them come together all this time later
Wow! This is the 1st I'm hearing of James' new book!
Congrats, James! I'm certain it will become a staple of every coffee obsessive for years to come.

You interview all the people I’d love to have a chat with. So satisfying watching these videos!! Great job Ali. 👏🏽👏🏽
Didn’t even realize I needed this collab. So cool and so informative. Never knew I could love the art of making coffee 😅
I see you commenting everywhere😂

Still love Ali tho
Yeah adding the productively, so the audience is not confused.
It's getting ridiculous >_
for real tho
@@ftfk7869 audience isnt just you. He's showcasing the best of the coffee world, if u know anything about coffee youd appreciate it.
Jeesus, I was waiting for this video for my whole life - coffee, which I love, and Ali's content!!! Thank you!
I'm waiting for the unhelpful summary of this video by Hames Joffman.
Pro tip for scales: if you're on a budget look for jewelry scales or budget specialty coffee scales. You can get scales with 0.1g accuracy and built in timer for under £20.
What are your thoughts on decaf? I hear it has all the health benefits but none of the sleep downsides from caffeine ? Can it taste good too?
I only have decaf now as the caffeine in coffee is crazy high and not good for you long term. And you're right, it has all the health benefits 🥳
Rewatching this a year later and still an absolute classic. It was nice to see James's coffee exceptionalism temper down to more of a regular joe's level (although the coffee grinder is stil too expensive). Looking forward to more videos with him if possible.
It's very sad that people in Syria can't join the giveaway, we have some of the most ones in need for a good push into success.. Thank you for your videos anyway.
The collaboration we never expect!! 🤯🤯

His content is amazing 🥳🥳
What coffee did you use?
There is no quicker way to hate a thing you love than to work like to work on it. A truer word was never spoken.
As a specialist in roasting and grinding coffee, James saying he was ground down was, I'm sure, entirely unintentional. 😊
A topic appealing to many many people - that elusive cup of strong, bold coffee and how to make it!!
What you saw being brewed would not be strong or bold, it would be delicious!
Congratulation for 3 million subscribers
i really didn't know about the clever dripper. that's an interesting way to turn a french press inside out, and save time compared to pour over like i do.
Hi Ali,
Hope you are having a great day. I was thinking about a quote for a very long time. It was, "If your business is depended on you, you are not the boss, you are an employee." So, my question was, how to automate every work so that even if you die, your company won't be dying with you?
You can't automate everything otherwise humans would be without jobs
Ali, I experienced the same conversion to freshly roasted, freshly ground (with a good grinder) coffee just less than 2 years ago.
Once you've tasted greatness, and understand why it's so great, you never want to go back to not-so-great. Rather quite the opposite. I've found myself only wanting to explore more to find even more super great coffees.
Hah! I'm even roasting coffee at home!
(I really like super fresh roasted coffee!)
hi i am type 17wpm can you help me plz
I don’t think I’ve ever heard James swear and I’m here for it.
I MUST know what that white ceramic cup with spout is for weighing and pouring the coffee beans!
It was a dosing cup sold by one of James’ companies called tens hundreds thousands. I do not believe it’s still made
Look up “cha he tea trays”
3 million is crazy… I actually started following you at 40K subscribers…. Can so feel like a part of your journey Ali…. Keep going!
3:21 when you try to impress your crush but your crush doesn't notice
Ali playing with the magnets is exactly the kind of thing I will do 😂😂😂
Did James include the ssp burrs into that grinder?
This was a really fun video - straightforward and informative. And now I NEED a Fellow Ode. NEEEEEEEEED. :)
totally luv your vlogs
Brother Ali, keep winning 🏆💚😊
You trully realize how fast Ali speaks when there's a normal person speaking at the same time.
I always double check that I haven’t upped the speed when I’m watching Ali 😅
I don't have coffee myself. Still watching it to make a good coffee for someone else.
My notes of this video with timestamp.
00:32
This video is all about the most productive way to brew an incredible cup of coffee every morning
Part 1 - The Grinder
01:47
That's good the asaya usb c rechargeable scales my god the world i mean it's you know my god everything has to be usb c
01:53
s a misting bottle and a fancy water filter because london's water bland tasting kind of coffee , kinda muddy
02:47 The tasting
02:39
Next up james took me through a taste testing process to find the exact type of coffee that i like and there's a bunch of different factors that go into creating the perfect cup of coffee.
02:55
So when we're doing a comparative tasting the easiest thing to do is pick an attribute yeah uh and it can be a very simple attribute like bitterness it can be an attribute like acidity and then just compare a to b b to c just one at a time.
03:30
So the interesting thing about coffee or anything really is that the hotter it is the harder it is to taste.
03:39
But as they begin to cool down a little bit they'll get easier and easier to taste.
06:10 The Brew
06:07
After we worked out what a perfect cup of coffee tastes like for me james took me through his brewing technique which includes having the correct electric coffee grinder instead of buying pre-ground coffee and water filtration so you pick some coffee.
08:26 Using the grinder
08:50 Smell after grinding
09:18
so what we're gonna do this is gonna be the weird bit so we're gonna put the water in first that's weird okay and then we'll put coffee in yeah i'm gonna stir it yep leave it steep for a little bit yeah and then we're nearly done okay so 300 300 mils.
09:46
So when you brew coffee this way it's called an infusion or an immersion brew
10:28
You've got a lot of things to get through in the morning routine so this is a yeah it might take four minutes in total but you're active for like 30 seconds here you're not active again for a couple of minutes quick stir
11:43
Please Reload/Refresh this tab.
12:04
Good coffee it has a really nice color it's very delicious it's good times all right and that's it and when you're done throw away your paper give the brewer a quick rinse not too much to clean and you're done that's it cleanup's finished .
12:24
I was hoping we could talk a little bit about the finances of this whole setup that we've got going on here yeah um yeah how much is the stuff?

Lol, you can see how their mood changes, and their speech cadence accelerates as they become increasingly caffeinated. Then the irritability sets in toward the end of the video
The collab I never knew I needed
All hail daddy hoffmann!
What were the different coffee beans that he had you try?
My fav collab!
This is the type of content that I didn't know I needed but thoroughly enjoyed. I'm a full-time coffee snob. 😅
never expected this collaboration
Great video LOL. Coffee-based content!
Great vid. When can James come round to my house and upgrade my coffee game?
I think a coffee with James can bend space time for me !
When coffee meets productivity. This is just the dream
welcome to the rabbit hole that is (speciality) coffee! 😂😂
Ali just completing side missions now.
Ali X James youtube duo......Dream come true lol
Beautiful B roll
Might be a dumb question, but can you still add milk? :D
You can, but most specialty coffee does not taste good with milk and milk will cover a lot of the flavours you are paying the premium for
Of course. That's the best part.
Oh man, you gotta see his review for the grinder he gave you 😅
Great stuff.
Of course it goes to 11! Perfect
Great video Ali!
I enjoyed watching this video while I slurped on my instant coffee!
Love love James. The coffee king for sure.
this is a great channel and worth watching and SUBBING ... thanks for the share :))))
What real estate books who you suggest for a complete beginner to learn how to invest (uk)
I like the chapter intro slides, very clean and clear!
Hey, nice vid!
I wonder why James didn't bring an aeropress. I thought he is a fan, and its super convenient.
I learned that it's harder to taste the coffee when it's hotter. That's fine but I still like my cup piping hot.
Impressive 😯 👏🏻☕️
two inspiring people, in the same video 👏😌

All good!
Only thing missing here is about beans!
Always misplacing my coffee appa'rah'tus in Oxford as well
Just curious, why no Aeropress?
Very cool! Any chance for a student/budget friendly version! I'm hoping to work up to this someday!
I'd do the following:
Start with an aeropress (super versatile) or a classic v60 decanter from hario (36€) plus the Boxed Filter Papers (10€), or a cheap moca pot - I went moca pot, aeropress - v60 decanter
Then go to a roaster you like and buy coffee there and tell them to grind it for you (they know what grind size you need for which brewer).
When you have saved up buy a good handgrinder. 1zpresso or porlex mini (100-160€). The grinder is the last part you want to go cheap, as it is the most important piece (I got the Commandante C40 back then)
And also a somewhat good scale with timer function (50€). Until you can afford a scale, get a 10€ digital scale rated up to 2kg from Amazon.
Last part is a gooseneck kettle (25-36€) or I guess everyone has an electric kettle at home, that works too in the beginning.
@@Caffeine.And.Carvings wow! Thank you! I've already started with the aeropress, so I guess I will carry on with that. Thanks so much for all the suggestions, I'm definitely going to try those! Cheers!
I've done aeropress, moca pot, french press and clever dripper. The clever is by far my favorite, and it's cheap. The hardest thing on a budget is a grinder, maybe a used one? I managed to snag a commercial grinder from a cafe that was going out of business for 50€. Otherwise a good manual grinder is manageable.
@@Caffeine.And.Carvings No, not a porlex mini. That is a terrible grinder priced similarly to MUCH better options. Moka pot too much work for someone starting out and the v60 is to dependable to technique. Aeropress or other immersion plus timemore c2 is the cheapest and best budget.
@@Adam-vx6to moka pot is super easy and can be used for espresso like brews until one can afford a real espresso maker.
And for what it is I found the porlex quite good, also for the price, but my last check into prices and performance has been 2 years ago.
Also one downside of the aeropress is the mass. Moka pot makes two Super strong coffees for 2, v60 can be scaled up.
But if we are going super easy and cheap a French press works in a pinch
What I would give to have James Hoffman come over and have a coffee tasting with me…
hoffmann is like a coffee apostle😂
"a wierd coffee person" James Hoffmann
@@ThePapaja1996 I just imagine him walking around the streets of London with a full on cupping set up waiting for his opportunity to bring proper coffee into people's lives
Many instant coffees give more caffeine per cup because they use strains of coffee beans that naturally have more caffeine

and also 1:39 , 6 year old Ali 😂
Really curious to know what the Indian coffee was.
but why the pearl??? I have a lunar myself and regret it cause you just end up not using any of the features. none of the multiple apps are good enough
Awesome video. You don't need serious cash to have an awesome cup of coffee thst really elevates life. My grinder of choice is an Eureka silencio 😎 keep these videos coming captain Ali
I have been waiting for this video ever since listening to him on the podcast. Awesome! 🤣 I was in London the other day and got the chance to try some of his company coffee - I'm no connoisseur, but damn do I know that stuff is good. Find myself unable to go back to instant stuff since getting a machine and purchasing "properly" roasted (whatever that means) beans. Quickly turning into a coffee snob thank to this guy 🤪
I keep trying and even use the salt trick to cover any bitterness.
It’s the heartburn I get, no matter what brand I buy….awful heartburn ❤️🔥 from brewed.
you need to try and buy roast-to-order whole bean coffee rather than whatever brand you're buying. Then try buy light roasted. I'd recommend natural processed Ethiopia single origin since it's never bitter and more to fruity.
‘If you’re within .5 of a gram there’s no reason to freak out about it…’
Me: 😬
James ruined my life also but in a good way 🤣
10/10 video
Man i would loveeee to taste that coffee 😍 hugeee coffee fan .. love to have a huge mug by my side while im editing 🔥 also congrats on 3 Mill Ali 💯
Thanks for sharing all that you do Ali!
I've signed up coffee workshop before but this is another level. Thanks for the educational content!
OMG this is the best crossing over all my life 😍😍😍
What grind size again for the infusion style?
the dripper is the only ting that is reasonablely priced everything else is rip off honestly, just buy ground up coffee and get a cheap coffee maker and call it a day
That’s literally the opposite of what this is and total ignorance on your part
@@Adam-vx6to there's a sucker born everyday
@@Adam-vx6to you can get all that shit at Walmart for under $50 lol
@@gmoney187 you literally can’t
Me also make moka pot We drink it together, me and my mom🥰
Please advise what grind size for clever coffee dripper?
There is no correct on fits all size. You need to learn how to adjust based on taste
Next episode, how to properly pour yourself a glass of water with ice.
The perfect duo!
James Hoffmann is a national treasure.
Excellent 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a great day everyone 🌻
It is so amazing to see two of my favorite RUclipsrs in one frame, Kudos man!
Thanks for this Ali and James always love a good coffee video lol. I also use a clever dipper but buy ground coffee since a good grinder is out of my budget. Now my question is how big of a difference did the filtered water make?
I think quality of beans you buy also makes a huge difference. Maybe you could use cheaper scale, or cheaper grinder while invest more in single origin and high quality beans!
Hey Ali, I'm sure you're bringing in a positive impact to many people's lives! Great content and keep inspiring millions! Cheers!
