You can't look at this and tell me that coffee isn't a drug. Lol. My stoner buddy has a set up just like this....except, bongs, vaporizers, several grinders, several jars of resin, a dab rig, and a ceramic knife laid out in similar, almost reverent positioning.
All jokes aside, it's a beautiful setup. I'm jealous. We just do a French Press and that's good enough for me at the moment.
So true! It all started with a $30 hand grinder and a Chemex, and it has grown to this. Luckily, the espresso machine seemed to finally scratch the itch and I haven’t felt a need to get anything new or upgrade anything since then. Between coffee, photography, and custom keyboards, I have enough expensive hobbies.
Well now you need to show the keyboards
Is the fellows kettle worth it?
We have a 5 piece vacuum storage set, a few of their mugs, and I’m always half in half out on. $200 kettle
It is expensive for sure. If you are trying to make better tasting coffee, not at all. A few degrees won’t really make a difference in the final taste. Honestly, I got it because it’s probably the nicest looking kettle out there. The money would be better spent going toward a better grinder IMO.
I have what I'm pretty sure is an Amazon clone, $30 and going strong in its second year of daily use...
The per degree temp control is a huge win along with the spout. Itll also stay warm for 30mins, optional beeps when done heating, and you can have it boil water automatically for a specific time. I really enjoy mine.
I could wish the build quality was better for the money, but they pour great and the temp is accurate. It does a weird thing where it kinda sneaks up on the correct temp…so it gets to, say 210F really quickly then takes forever to get to 212. Overall positive and it beats the crap out of my tea kettle for v60.
What issues do you have with the build quality? I have the one with wood accents, and as long as I use some wood oil on it occasionally I don’t have any issues.
Yes, that is unfortunately the trade off. I’ve seen some others that get up to temp super fast, but they overshoot it and you have to wait for it to come back down to your desired temp. For me, I prefer it slowly getting where I need to go rather than having to wait for it come back down, but that’s just me.
I can look at this and tell you coffee isn't a drug. It's just a great way to deliver the action drug, caffeine!
