I think I might need to step my game up. My Mr. Coffee seems inadequate now. Beautiful set up!

Thank you kindly. It was a slow path here, but each step has been such fun!

I have that same kettle, it’s so simple but great.

I’ve read that many others have had QC issues, but it’s worked a treat for me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, if you complain they just send you a new one. Didn't even ask for the old one back. They must be making money hand over fist.

The call of espresso is irresistible. You can't fight her off for long. She will have you.

Hahahaha she’s gotten me a few times, then reality of a tenuous financial situation got the better of her song. As soon as things are settled it’s number one on my list.

Lol I held out as long as possible but it eventually gets you. Also I just love the look of the fellow ode. Great set up.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Can you list everything here? On the top left, is that for drip?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Course: top left is the Fellow Ode grinder with SSP burrs next to the Fellow kettle. I made the little shelf myself with a cutting board and some shelf riser legs. Tucked beneath is a small black tray with the James Hoffmann dosing cup and spray bottle on the left (I believe the dosing cup has been discontinued, sadly) atop the Acaia Lunar scale, while on the right is the Hario V60 01 in glass with an olive wood holder. In the back of the tray are my filter papers in a generic black metal holder and my daily supplements. Also in the tray is a lone chopstick used for stirring. Photobombing on the right is my pride and glory KitchenAid stand mixer.

Top left is a conical burr grinder, the best way to get that perfect consistent grind.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I dont want to be that guy, but the grinder there uses flat burrs, not conical ones.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the correction, the truth is always welcome.

Never give in to espresso! Instead throw ludicrous amounts of money at filter stuff and tell yourself it's okay because 'at least you're not doing espresso'. 't is the way!

Also; nice setup. The fellow grinder is on my radar, for when my old Vario W completely dies on me. It's that, or I go all in and buy one of those mini EKs.

I'm stil a basic budget bitch with my v60, Krups grinder and Hario Air Kettle, jealous of how nice your set up looks!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Looking slick. Definitely jealous with my hand grinder and moka pot.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Hand grinder give a 10+ boost to taste receptors for 30 minutes

Enjoy what you’ve got and enjoy the ride. As long as you’re finding pleasure in your coffee you’re doing something right!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Incredible and super aesthetic!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ooh I like that little shelf!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Thank you! I couldn’t find one to the right specs so I hobbled it together using a cutting board and spare shelf riser legs.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is that an Ode or Ode 2? I have a baratza encore an just about pulled the trigger on an Ode but ended up backing off. How have you liked it? My encore spots chaff everywhere and I really hate adding water to the beans before grinding.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It’s the original Ode & I do indeed use a spritz of water before grinding (the little black tube in the white dosing cup is an atomiser). I’ve been super happy with the Ode but if you’re not going to add the water you’ll have a frustrating time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ha! It's not the lack of enjoying espresso for me, it's the lack of funds to invest enough where i'd be happy with my at-home output! But I can make a killer filter coffee for relatively cheap at home.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Love the set up, where’s you get that bowl for measuring beans (I assume) in the bottom left?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It’s from Hundreds Thousands, James Hoffmann’s merch brand.

Edit: Tens* Hundreds Thousands, sorry
