@Jacob Van Meter @Alec Tod- Jenny Tod Creative @Matt Whatley   They updated the FAQ section to include which bag is which under "If my calendar gets shuffled in transit how can I tell which c...

Hey all, I was able to pull 2 shots of 18 grams of espresso and although I didn't get the grind size perfect on the X54, It was an amazing experience. Clean, beautiful, bright. I do think It w...

@Chris Sully Despite me "messing up the recipe" (I went hard pour straight to 300 LOL) I'm enjoying the cup. I think this is my first time trying Framily at home (I've tried it once before where so...

@Stephen Brown With the clever dripper, I get very consistent results with the water in first method. There's a great video of this by James Hoffman. It's my standard brew method these days. You ca...

Hey @Christopher James and @Stephen Brown, Like @Mark Seipel's K-Max, I used 6.5.3 on my K-Ultra with my Aeropress using James Hoffman's Ultimate Aeropress Recipe with 14g coffee:255g water. For a...

First brew, already messed up the recipe. LETS GOO Cheers to 23 more days of great coffee everyone! :)

Is anyone here using a niche for the advent calendar? I tried it on 37 this morning and it took 4min30 to full drain, so trying a coarser grind this afternoon but interested to hear from any other ...

@Christopher James I just finished brewing this with an origami and K-Plus hand grinder. I did a 1:16 ratio as recommended (20:320 instead of 25:400 as I wanted to have enough for 2 x 18 g espresso...

@Onyx I'm having a similar issue as above. Day 1 (black bag) seems to be a PB of sorts (way smaller than past Gotiti I've had) Working the corners - assuming they got swapped on accident has me cor...

@Onyx Are the bag colors consistent for everyone? I really wish the bags were labeled because I have a strong suspicion that mine are mixed up. The black bag I opened for day 1 has beans that look...

@Alan Carpenter I'll let you know when I try again, thanks! 

1st brew: Espresso (Americano)decent de1: default profileP64: 0.4 @ 8 18g in 36g out / 210FMy grind was too fine so it choked and only 6g was extracted. I just hit brew again and stopped it at 30g ...

I don't think this advent calendar could have started off more positively. I recently switched from my hard, Kansas tap water to R.O. filtered + "Coffee Water" mineral packets a couple weeks back j...

Hi Onyx Framily! Happy Days of Advent(ure)!Been delving deep into coffee since 2020 and have been looking forward to this experience for a while now! Followed the recommended preparation for ...

@Joseph Mally How was the coffee on this grind setting? I have the Baratza encore and will be brewing with a Cemex or a v360. Wondering what the best grind setting would be.

I'm not a coffee expert but I want to use this forum to track my thoughts on each of these :) This one was lovely, the smell and taste are amazing. There's something smooth and elegant about it. M...

@Luis Campos @Matt Luniewski We do have an espresso brew guide for this Advent offering if you'd like to give it a shot!   Modbar EP Brew Temp: 198°F, Line Pressure: ~3.5 bars, Max Press...

Fantastic as espresso on my LMLM. Brewed @ 201 with 5s preinfusion for 29s total. 19.2g in and ~50g out.  Grind setting of 2.1 on my Kafatek Max

An interesting first cup but I don't think I did myself favors by 1) using a less-used grinder (DF-64 with multipurpose SSP burrs) and less-mainstream brew method (April brewer); I went in expectin...

@Hannah Barlow I used a very similar set up but I used a grind at 55. The notes as you mentioned all shine through but I get more tea than chocolate notes. I feel like I should lower my grind size...

My fiancée and I sprung for the advent calendar for the first time ever, and we aren't great at tasting notes or anything, but we have been counting down the days until December so we could ...

@Matt Luniewski Candied cherry is a GREAT description. Very similar to what came up for me as well.

Fantatic cup for me. The sweetness really jumped out. It almost reminded me of sugar cookie dough. As it cooled, the ripe apricot became clear. Excited to make another cup later today!Fellow Ode V1...

@Luis Campos The reason I decided against espresso is that I would probably take 1 or 2 tries to dial it in. That only leaves you with maybe 1 good drink from the day.
