  • There’s the MHW-3 Bomber R3 Pro, with an adjustment fineness of 15µm per click (burr movement), the Timemore C5 Pro Esp (specifically the Esp version), 15µm/click, the Kingrinder K6 at 16µm, the Timemore Millab M01 at 12.5µm, the Kinu Phoenix (stepless). The Kingrinder and Timemore are the most price friendly, but the 1Zpresso J-Ultra is the one to get, inexpensive for the quality, and 8µm/click.

    Lance seems quite smitten. I haven’t used my RB much, don’t take me to the bank, but the soup shots I have tried are surprisingly espresso-like: thick, viscous, engaging. Most surprisingly, they have (edit: can have) that curious espresso flavour, but specialty bean characteristics are submerged in mud, to my palate.

    Maybe I’m not doing it quite right? Nor have I done it drastically wrong. The soup program seems to be foolproof on the RB at least for the basics. Personally this is not usually the coffee I want to drink. Pour-over is my mania, but RB scratches the itch for straight espresso pretty effectively.


  • Dunkin’ coffee is light(ish)? The very idea is shocking to me. More than shocking; this would shake the pillars of my world. I have never once drunk Dunkin’ coffee, but sink me if I don’t have to try it now. I won’t be expecting much, no, but the very idea that afterthought coffee from a major donut chain might be even one notch closer to righteous than char; that’s so intriguing that I think I have to hunt down a shop soon.
