Hahahaha she’s gotten me a few times, then reality of a tenuous financial situation got the better of her song. As soon as things are settled it’s number one on my list.
Course: top left is the Fellow Ode grinder with SSP burrs next to the Fellow kettle. I made the little shelf myself with a cutting board and some shelf riser legs. Tucked beneath is a small black tray with the James Hoffmann dosing cup and spray bottle on the left (I believe the dosing cup has been discontinued, sadly) atop the Acaia Lunar scale, while on the right is the Hario V60 01 in glass with an olive wood holder. In the back of the tray are my filter papers in a generic black metal holder and my daily supplements. Also in the tray is a lone chopstick used for stirring. Photobombing on the right is my pride and glory KitchenAid stand mixer.
Never give in to espresso! Instead throw ludicrous amounts of money at filter stuff and tell yourself it's okay because 'at least you're not doing espresso'. 't is the way!
Also; nice setup. The fellow grinder is on my radar, for when my old Vario W completely dies on me. It's that, or I go all in and buy one of those mini EKs.
Is that an Ode or Ode 2? I have a baratza encore an just about pulled the trigger on an Ode but ended up backing off. How have you liked it? My encore spots chaff everywhere and I really hate adding water to the beans before grinding.
It’s the original Ode & I do indeed use a spritz of water before grinding (the little black tube in the white dosing cup is an atomiser). I’ve been super happy with the Ode but if you’re not going to add the water you’ll have a frustrating time.
Ha! It's not the lack of enjoying espresso for me, it's the lack of funds to invest enough where i'd be happy with my at-home output! But I can make a killer filter coffee for relatively cheap at home.
