Barista Bitch Dialing In

I brewed this in a Kalita wave using notneutral filters with a Niche Zero grinder. My recipe is 28g coffee, 400g hot water not necessarily aiming for any particular time, but somewhere between four and five and half minutes. I try to do a 50g bloom in the first 45 seconds then three or four more pours. 50. Bitter orange peel, jasmine, root beer, saffron and sweet. I don't know how I feel about this, It reminds me a lot of trying to make candied orange peel, there is enough sweetness there, but there is a bitter bite as well.

Lots of black tea notes, only slightly astringent, jammy stonefruit, floral vanilla, some orange and a little herby.

It was surprisingly clean tasting.

Using a Niche Zero Grinder and an Anza espresso machine at 19, 18.4g in, 22 seconds and 30g out. Dark chocolate, caramel, black tea, red grape sweetness and very creamy. I loved it as a daily drinker, despite have some black tea notes I didn't find this astringent like most coffees that are tea-like or with predominant tea notes.

I try to do a 50g bloom in the first 45 seconds then three or four more pours. 45. Smoked Chocolate, not quite dark or bittersweet, earthy, a strange vegetal sweetness (something like a sweet grassy jelly) and lightly acidic. Overall really good for a daily drinker.

Using a Niche Zero Grinder and an Anza espresso machine at 21, 18.3g in, 17 seconds and 24g out. Still surprising. Lots of woodsy notes, aromatic green vegetables, berry sweetness and malty. It still can use a little work, but it is very good as is.

Strong cedar notes, toasted barely, a lot of sweetness and green vegetables.
