@will_a113@lemmy.ml @coffee@a.gup.pe Until now I’ve always been using Porlex mini II, but sadly I broke the burr. I was pretty happy about it but I learned it is generally considered as an inconsistent grinder, so I looked for an upgrade in my setup and K6 seemed a good choice.
To be honest I did notice a certain range of dimension in the Porlex ground, but the resulting coffee always seemed good enough for me. I’m curious about the difference with the K6

About a.gup.pe, I’m using Sharkey to post, so I don’t really know if lemmy supports the following of users. I guess it’s not possible, since Guppe groups are technically bot accounts, Lemmy shouldn’t be able to see them as communities

@CCMan1701A@startrek.website isn’t 320ml a little too much? Didn’t it came out too watered?

@zabadoh@ani.social it’s not like the reality is less disturbing tho 🫠

@anytimesoon@feddit.uk well that’s impressive! Coincidentally I just ordered Hoffmann’s book so I guess it’s convenient pairing

@oreteau@lemmy.world cold brew stays fresh and good for days, I’d say a week at least, I guess you would probably need to worry about the safety factor before the flavour. However in the summer I usually make 1 liter and it get consumed in 4/5 days, but I think it can last more. Of course you need to keep the jar well sealed.
Note that after little time a thin white film starts forming on the surface. That’s totally normal and you shouldn’t worry about it, it is not mold (as it should need much more time to form) but some water and coffee minerals and residuals concentrating on top. It’s not aesthetically appealing but it’s totally safe.

@actionjbone@sh.itjust.works If I stick to the Porlex the tall could be my next step. The Mini is handy until you need to brew two cups or a liter of cold brew 🙃

@Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works Actually I literally just did it after tasting a V60 coffee in a local cafe. I got a 150g bag of the same coffee (a really good Colombian) and I managed to obtain a cup almost as good as the one they served me, even if I’m using a stovetop kettle without termometer.
However my main doubt is about the setting of the grinder, mainly because I can calculate how many steps it needs to obtain a theorically correct size of the ground, however I mostly end up looking for instructions online and finding the right setting by trying
