You should have some Turkish Delight with your Bripe. Colorful kites are dancing on the currents of the ocean breeze. Beach blankets are placed strategicly upon the sand. As the sun is starting to set on the horizon, you hear the ever so distinctive sound of a child making bubbles in their drink. Giggling is heard over the roar of the ocean. As the camera zooms in, you see Morgan sitting on her towel. She is oblivious to the world. Her focus is soully on the experience one has with a Biper. Blow bubbles. Smile. Giggle. Sip. Giggle some more. With the ocean sunset in the background, Morgan takes a bite of a Turkish Delight.
@belindaandjoelvanbergeijk9377 without your comment...I would have thought the Turkish delight was a kind of coffee.😂😅 I had forgotten it's the English name for that dessert 😅
Skiing. It's great to throw in a jacket pocket and have a coffee on the mountain. I bought some cheap flexible plastic pouches for water that are about the size of the felt bripe bag. They are marketed for alcohol but honestly the bripe kit should have included one. They hold enough water to brew roughly a vial of coffee. I bought two bripes immediately after the hoffmann video, don't want to bripe alone. A great thing about briping while skiing is you can almost instantly cool it down by plopping it in the snow for 5-10 seconds. Dominican aged natural from a bripe on top of a mountain at night when it's 0°f (or less) is quite an experience.
@@UmbralWaffle I would not trust the flavor or quality of the snow. Water is too crucial a part of coffee to leave that to chance. Also, as someone who has done some winter camping, melting snow takes forever.
the hop up followed by conversational "hello there" really solidifies a picture of Morgan as a fey creature suddenly appearing behind your kitchen counter to infodump about coffee. I think they're one of the more benign cryptids you can meet.
I love my Bripe, and I have the same giddy reaction as you do every time I use it. I've taken it camping several times, and take it out on my bike often. It is a completely ridiculous little thing, and it brings me way more joy than it really should. So happy you have one, and are having the same reaction as me!
To me it looks more like someone rehabilitating from meth addiction needed a substitute for the habituation of puffing a bowl. Or clever PR team for a drug ring wanted to normalise puffing a bowl...
A crappy one. Those solder joints connecting the tube to the bowl are a mess. It shouldn't impact the functionality, but it's fairly offensive from an aesthetics perspective. My grandfather would have told me to do it again, but this time pay attention and take it seriously.
My father-in-law made similar comments when I showed off mine. It totally looks like you're doing drugs. Which, you know. Caffeine is a drug, soooo.....
I have a bripe! I really enjoy it. My use cases are normally if I’ve already had coffee that day but want a little more, if I’m craving coffee a little later in the day and just want a small amount, or if I’m going on a hike and want to enjoy some coffee at the top without hauling too much brewing equipment with me. I also really enjoy showing it to people just entering the coffee rabbit hole just to show how fun and unique the coffee hobby can get. Overall it’s definitely a novelty item more than a daily driver, but I have found it to be super charming and fun. It also looks great on my coffee shelf even when not in use :)
Indeed, Turkish coffee might be where this contraption had originated on the idea level. Cezve's are also traditionally made out of copper and heated up buried in hot sand, so I imagine the bripe is meant to be heated up buried in the embers of a camp fire (if using a camp fire), not over direct flame (that is, if using a camp fire). I'd also think that adding sugar and spices, for example, cloves or cardamom before brewing would work the same way as it does for Turkish coffee. Although, traditional Turkish coffee requires coffee ground to a flour-like consistency, so this seems to be a difference.
I’m a drag/burlesque performer and every year our local community goes on a “camping” trip (tents in a remote area but the area is a wedding venue so it’s very clean and level… barely camping but good for those of us who don’t do nature lol). I bought the bripe because i knew it would be a hit with everyone there and i enjoy every time someone asks “wtf is that” and i get to say “do you even f*cking bripe bro?”. Absolutely worth the price for a once a year gimmick LOL
When it comes to the lighter, the TRIPLE REFINED BUTANE. This very important and most people are not aware of it. Torch lighters need high quality butane or else the jet will clog up with particles that are left in cheap butane, killing your lighter after a few months of use. Triple refined butane is $5 at any smoke shop, don't cheap out with gas station butane. Good brands are Colibri and Xikar.
next time. aim the heat direction away from the hand and it'll hafve less radiant driven directly to your hand. like have both towards your body pointing towards the camera. Might work nicer? if one was doing a campfire scenario. I think you'd get a flat rock, place it off the side of the fire, and put the stand on the hot rock. (be aware of copper melting point, and soldier melting point). basically the stand and the rock is hot, and that'll transfer. albiet may not be super fast.
Looks pretty neat but I immediately worry about how hard it'll be to clean the straw part. Especially while camping, it'll have time to cake the insides before getting it to a real kitchen.
Wait! Wait! Do you hear that? It's the sound of Bripe sales skyrocketing now that the most well-known internet barista has given it her resounding approval!
I love your face and cute hair and bubbly disposition ! You’re too cute and besides that, you’re so knowledgeable about the art of making coffee! Because it is an art!!! As a coffee nut, I enjoy and appreciate all your videos! Keep it up girl!
When you "said 5 grams of coffee and 30 ml of water", the first thing that came to my mind was turkish coffee. I am Turkish and i know that we are more used to having grounds in coffee than the rest of the world. And believe it or not, some of us (including me) like it! I love it when my my last sip of coffee comes with a little coffee grounds and i know people that eats the grounds entirely, especially people who have iron deficiency tend to like more.
Not sure if you've tried something like this but I think it's called a vacuum coffee maker or a siphon coffee maker where there are 2 containers, usually glass, connected by a pipe and as the water boils in one container, it moves to the other chamber with the grounds. Then, once the original container cools, it causes the now brewed coffee to siphon back into the container, leaving the heavier grinds behind.
My wife gifted me with one of these about 1.5 years ago, and personally I love it. I don't use it "that" often, but it's so much fun with friends to pull it out when we're sitting around a firepit, or early morning or late afternoon at a campsite, or hiking. Sometimes, it's just nice to use it as you get an experience and part of the fun is the brewing itself and .... the coffee has almost always been at least pretty good. Glad you have added it.
I knew a guy in my freshman year in college who had one of these, and he would tell our discord server when he was “bripe-ing on the lawn” so people could join him. I think he would do the brewing process 3-4 times whenever he wanted coffee.
It feels like it could be so much better with slightly improved design! The little stand and lack of a handle is criminal. But i like the little quirkyness of it. It gives vibe straight out of Lord of The Rings
I think a really good selling point for the bripe, aside from it being a fun conversation piece, is to help sample coffees and dial in things like temp and grid size without wasting too much coffee. Obviously you would still need some fine tuning once you moved to the actual brew method you're using, but I feel like a bripe could get you in the ball park for just a few grams of coffee.
could be cool to see how you would improve/change this up in any way (different roasts of coffee, amounts, temps, etc) or your own use case for this product. Great video! I'm loving the new set, looks so professional!
Remember kids: The Surgeon General has recommended that Bripe usage is safe in moderation, and further strongly recommends a daily intake of puck consumption for maximum content provision! Also it will make Morgan happy so win win 😂
❤ my Bripe. I got my Bripe right around the time JH reviewed it. I always take it on any outdoor outings or night time shenanigans. It's definetly a party shocker.😎
Hello Morgan, James did a review of the Bripe a while ago and he did it outdoors since I believe the Bripe is supposed to be a portable type of brewer. It was quite funny as one never imagines James as being the outdoor type. Going for a ramble on the heath and stopping to brew a bripe as it would.
On the subject of camp brewing this could work if you built a stone nest for the fire and nestled the bripe between the rocks after they got hot as it wouldn't be right above the fire but could still get the heat from the rocks and the fire. You could also use this in a sauna for the giggles.
toys for us Coffee people how cute and another good video Thank You. Perhaps that water from the Columbia river and heated would bring similar results lol kidding
I have no idea if this makes sense to anyone else, and I mean it as the highest complement compliment, but Morgan reviewing fun coffee gear like this gives off some MAJOR Gale from Seattle Coffee Gear vibes
This inspired me to pull mine out - I picked it up a few years ago when James Hoffman reviewed it. It's not, in any permutation I can imagine, a practical item - one gets it because it's ridiculous. I don't think the resultant coffee is bad, but like you say, it's not a lot of juice for the squeeze. One very important warning, though: the lighter they give you will continue running for sometimes up to 10 seconds after you release it. Which means it would be very easy to put it down and accidentally set something on fire.
it's more like the coffee side vs. the weed side of the internet tea internet exists but it's not the opposition... I wish a cocoa existed too... cocoa is so good and should be over-enthusiastically enjoyed by weirdos just like weed and coffee 😭
I would be interested if you could review some handheld electric burr grinders. There are more and more of them coming out, and I'm interested in getting one because I tend to just brew coffee for myself in an Aeropress. For interesting brewers, there's the Varia, which is a combination French press, pour over, moka pot, and kettle (and can also brew tea). I've seen differing opinions on it, with some people saying that it's not as watertight as it should be (as I recall). They also make a handheld electric grinder, which hasn't released yet (and is like €230).
A few thoughts. In a camping situation, can't you heat the water on the fire, put grounds in the Bripe, then pour the hot water into the Bripe? It wouldn't have quite the same flavor--the grounds wouldn't be sitting in the water quite as long, and wouldn't go through the warm-up phase--but it shouldn't be a huge difference and it would be easier than carrying a butane torch. If we're going with this as a Turkish coffee maker, you could also heat it up on the hot soil under a fire after you've scraped it away. One way to brew Turkish is to heat sand and use that to boil the water. Would the patina affect flavor? I know that it does in whiskey distilling. The copper tubing in the still generates esters, which are flavor compounds. A patinaed tube makes better-tasting ones, the more buttery flavors. I know a guy who can tell you how old the tubing was when he tastes whiskey. This may have a noticeable impact on flavor. I don't know...For my money, and the camping trips I've been on, a mocha pot and the ability to build a small fire quickly are better investments. You're not getting as much control in terms of heat, but that's part of roughing it outdoors; if you want precision you need to be in a controlled environment. Though if I were in an office with a lot of smokers, I could see using this. "I'm taking my pipe outside for a Bripe break." :D
Hi, Morgan! I like the slide from the side, but this is fun, too. Is it me, or does this coffee brewer look like it might be impossible to convince your parents is perfectly innocent?
Actually it is surprisingly simple. Just show your parents the real pieces you have and point out the size/hole placement of the Bripe doesn't lend itself well to the task. They will be impressed by your reasoning.
to go full rogue mode you should have used a hacksmith mini sabre as heatsource. apart from that... great review! almost missed that brewer after mr hoffmanns vid some time ago ^^
I've had a Bripe sinse James Hoffman reviewed it. It's silly and fun and jt makes drinkable coffee. It's a lot of work for a little coffee, so i don't use it often, but it's fun!
Glad to see you bripe, Morgan! Now that you’ve had your blind first experience, you should definitely go see James’s bripe video, if indeed you haven’t seen it yet😂
