I was about to reply with 'i guess you will end up using spreadsheets', until this comment loaded.

I'm actually working on software to do this, with metrics, but it's far from ready for primetime. So this is not helping (only myself to see that there is interest ๐Ÿ˜).

I'm not sure how they compare between each other (Gabi and Hario), but I don't really see much difference from manually pooring. Basically going the immersion route makes your water touch the coffee longer. That might extract more fats and make it less healthy, and in my opinion not a better taste (I don't like other immersion products either). Taste is personal of course.

It might give you a slight improvement in comfort, but at what cost.

A faucet with a single knob for temperature instead of mixing them yourself. Many inner pieces are not cleanable and with calcium in the water they break easily.

 

Thanks for being such a great bunch of coffee geeks, starters and intermediates! In order to be a good netizen and to keep this community alive, there is room for a few (1-2) moderators here.

 

I've been ordering and visiting some of these roasters at their businesses. They're small, and very knowledgeable. They're worth a visit or an order to test them out.

Koffiestation - Groningen Small roasters that deliver by bike in the city of Groningen. They have a great starter pack and tasting pack.

Black and Bloom - Groningen Winner of several awards with a very cozy shop near the university. Also sells great baked sides.

Fascino Coffee - Weert Medium sized roaster with a great consistent set of beans that you can rely on.

Kahawa Pakaya - Norg Speciality coffee from the eastern countries in Africa. Great flavours in pretty packaging.

Giraffe Coffee - Rotterdam Roasters with an enormous passion for coffee, and you can taste it.

Moyee - Amsterdam Hip and vibrant packaging, they sell a coffee subscription that uses a different microlot every time. Their regular coffee is very reliable and well balanced.

Rum Baba - Amsterdam Bold and unique coffee flavours. Delivers by bike in Amsterdam.
