Yea, multiple choice is always good. I try to finish a bag before opening another.i like having a variety as well!!! depending on the mood kinda thing!!
I’m not enjoying the 454 as much. Has that slight bitter tang at the end of each sip. Son and wife like it though. Haven’t tried the grizzly yet but I might tomorrow. I did buy more if the Kick Ass, still my fav for this brand.
I’m fussy about food and drink. Even quality items don’t always agree with me. I have a strong sense of smell which can make trying some things difficult.i've found that if it's a quality bean they don't get bitter with fine grinds...
Now that I haven’t done, yet.it was a foggy morning the other day.. scooped the beans out and dumped them in the maker without grinding them first.. i knew i forgot something!! hahaha
If you can make tea you can do this. You just grind to your taste first. You’ll need to experiment between water and beans but it only takes a few times to get it.OH this is way doable for me... i'd try that!!! for some reason i read somewhere that said it was necessary to "preheat" the carafe by pouring (wasting) boiling water through it first then load it up with grounds and proceed.. that kinda just bugged me so i never looked into it any further. but if you just grind, dump, and go.. i can handle that. don't mind a 20 minute coffee, just mind 20 minutes of full attention to make a cup of coffee!!
My grinder is just a hand held, no settings or level marks. I just know where to fill it too from past use.i grind to finest setting it has.. i think it's a 2.. i think i couldn't got that fine with press, correct? it needs to be a little coarser yeah?
The finer you go the more chance of micro particles getting past the mesh. I find you don’t have to go that fine but my grinder gives me a mix. I have a ritual where I shake and grind three or four times like I’m making a martini.
I save some of the beans and let it dry out for the worms. I give them some of the left over vaped weed too. Not just sand or egg shells.
