I made a post around a week ago that really took off, and figured we are probably going to see a small spike in activity due to the reddit migration, so I thought we could give it another go!

There are always tons of posts about what beans you are brewing, but my question is HOW are you brewing those beans this week? Sticking to the tried and true v60? Pick up a new Orea and still figuring out the best recipe for it? Pulling some particularly sweet shots on your latest beans haul? Let us know below! What's your brew method of the day/week?

Currently I'm definitely in that "got a new Orea" camp : D

I got my "negotiator" a couple days ago and have been trying to get the hang of using it with flat filters. (I got some of the hilariously expensive sibarist ones to try.) It's a little fussy to get everything situated, especially compared to the very easy workflow of the Mugen that has been my main brewer.

Today it's already pretty warm here so I did a batch of iced coffee using Rogue Wave's Doi Seket. 55 on the ZP6, 28 grams of coffee, 300g of water, 200g of ice, doing a simple 5 pours of equal size.

This coffee has been a bit tricky to brew for me, with a papery astringency that has been tricky to avoid, so I dropped the temp down a little bit in brewing, which seems to have helped somewhat.
