HappyMartin Posted June 9, 2014 Share I sometimes get milk from Irene dairy. Unpasteurized and I would assume fresh. I find it hell to texture correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Werner van Aardt Posted June 20, 2014 Share I hooked up one of these for my Aeropress. It's really fun to use. http://capecoffeebea...-coffee-grinder Hi, I am looking to buy me the same grinder because I don't have the cash for a proper electric grinder. How well does this grinder perform in terms of grind consistency? I will mainly use it for my espresso machine. Do you think it will be worth the trouble?

How well does this grinder perform in terms of grind consistency? I will mainly use it for my espresso machine. Do you think it will be worth the trouble? I have one of those which I use on camping trips. The grind is not consistent, even at the finest setting there will be fine and course grounds. From what I understand, the Porlex mini will be better for espresso, but you will grind for about 60-90 seconds for a double espresso. For a great espresso hand grinder the Pharos or Lido 2 should do the job: http://www.oehandgrinders.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need an electronic one. You won't be able to get it fine enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Potgieter Posted June 23, 2014 Share Hi guys. I have been watching the show "dangerous grounds" on DSTV. This has got me wondering if i need to broaden my horizons a bit with some rare and international coffee varieties. I am considering one of those "coffee of the month" type of deals. Or does anyone have any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V12man Posted June 23, 2014 Share Import the stuff yourself - anything from a coffee of the month club is by default stale. Styles differ quite mardy around the world - so finding what you like might be quite tricky. I suggest you start with something middle of the road - like this one... http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.com/product/coffee/fruit-bat-black-cat-project-espresso Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weight Weenie Posted June 23, 2014 Share My 2c is depends on your market I would say - are the current clients big on coffee? Maybe there aren't any proper coffee places in the area? Then they will come! But if not I would say rather get a bean/blend that works for you and people like (that you can get consistently from a supplier of the same quality) and focus on perfecting that so people know they get a good cup there each time. Otherwise it's perfecting the ground, temp etc. each time with a new coffee that may not be ideal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR ◣◢ Posted June 23, 2014 Share So after my AEG machine blew the main seal I resorted to an Aeropress. Super impressed with it so far. A good dark, intense roast makes for a damn good cappuccino. Anybody know where to get the portafilter seal for an AEG machine? Local agents don't seem to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V12man Posted June 23, 2014 Share Take the Seal to HDS in Strydom park and pray the mad german can sort out something similar...... DR ◣◢ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
