Opened a Single Origin Costa Rica from whole foods. 26 Grind on Encore ESP, did both aeropress and V60. It's a nice light roast, but nothing amazing.

I haven't seen this, but I like that there are more options for whole bean in general at stores.

Thanks. Droid-ify has their repo in the list for repos to add so I just enabled it and reinstalled.

Nice. Yeah Kona is nice once a year. Lol too pricey to be all the time. I'm exploring the beans available at my local food stores for now after trying a few other mail order options.

I went through this debate myself and ended on the Encore ESP with a 3rd party bellows. I use the wet beans trick for static issues and the bellow deals with my zero retention needs. It is loud however otherwise perfect for aeropress and V60 duty.

Towards the end you could easily load custom kernels to try and make the os less laggy. Ahh those were the days ..

The pre 2 was the sweet version, but webos is all I ever wanted. 😭

I've been thinking about this some more and I suspect when you change over to metal filter your brew may be a lot closer to the French press. Let us know! I'm still rocking the paper filters.

Also, which coffee are you using?

Sweet deal. Yeah you'll figure out what works for your flow. It's fun to play with.

Yeah, a smaller mug for the aeropress for sure. It's only like 220ml I think

Ohhhh, I'll have a Wegmans near me soon. 👍
