Me and my girlfriend are really looking forward to the "how to live with a coffee geek" video. Just in this video you gave voice to some of the compromises we have managed. Looking forward to both of your prospectives.
Yes!!!! The same thing happened to me , where before my stagg ekg arrived I was feeling death stares but once it was on the counter it looked beautiful!!! The acceptance came in later as we found out having two different kettles were wayy too convenient and useful in different scenarios. I'm hoping someday in the future the meticulous machine will also get accepted though my hopes are not too high for that one.
My wife doesn’t really drink coffee but she still enjoys hearing about everything I love about it - and it goes the same for my views of her hobbies and interests too. It’s healthy and normal to enjoy different things together. As for gear and even sponsorships, it’s always important to talk about it first because this living space we have is shared and this just honours her. It’s not asking for permission, more so talking to your co-CEO to reach joint agreements.
If I apologize is that too Canadian? 🤣 It's too funny because the name is designed for the american pronuciation of "z" as in "ODZ=Odyssey". I just feel the need to stay true to my Canadian roots lol!
Been trying to convince my wife for over a year now that an electric espresso grinder is a good investment… but here I am still getting a workout with a hand grinder every morning 😅
That dripper looks absolutely beautiful! Now I would like to know how much difference in the brew time compared to V60 and Origami with the same recipe using conical filters.
I often leverage pulse pouring to minimize the differences in draw down time vs something like a single pour. I’m guessing this comparison would be the most helpful with something like a single pour recipe + bloom? Let me know how you normally brew and I can ball park it later.
Interesting that their South Korean partner is selling their basic design for ₩98,000 (around $75 USD), which I also saw at a Singaporean retailer. While the dripper is undeniably beautiful, it strikes me more as a functional art piece than something optimized for coffee brewing. For that reason, I'd lean towards the Varia Flo, if I want another dripper in my collection. It's more affordable, and its design, while complex, seems more focused on functionality and optimal coffee extraction.
@@DaddyGotCoffee Yup, I watched that too. That's why I used it as a reference. I have been eyeing the FLO when it was on preorder. I was tempted to get one but told myself I need to wait for someone to review it before I get one. So I'm really grateful for your thorough review. I'm from SE Asia, so even the FLO is relatively more expensive for us. I was thinking of getting it as my ultimate brewer for my slow bar side hustle, but due to its complexity, I'll stick with my Origamis atm.
That’s kinda how I would add it to my collection. I have my daily driver which 9 times out of 10 is v60 lol but I want it to mess around with and to display with my other mass amount of drippers. The origami is always an eye catcher and discussion piece. I think this would be the same and I love that.
I definitely have a coffee hobby, fortunately, my wife and I met late in life, so we have his, hers, and ours, which means we have greater autonomy for our hobbies. Still need to negotiate kitchen space, but since I only do pour-over, it's not too challenging. Now I'm just trying to figure out how to get my hands on the ODZ dripper... squeaky.coffee only has solid color ones, which after seeing the ones at SCA and on your video, looks too plain.
The paint they use is imported from Japan and is both lead and cadmium free. I don’t have a testing kit but I did ask. The artist series is fired 4 times and is over-glazed. Testing this myself is a good idea for something to add to my review process in the future!
I'm just so impressed with your video production quality. It's just top notch. Also, where can I find that bean dosing cup you used @5:58? I absolutely love that look/design!
Justin hi, question please: I have a small bistro up in a mountain, with a relatively small solar setup. I am looking for the most energy efficient setup, and my searching has led me to consider induction or thermocoil units .If I sell around 30 espresso’s per day, would the Ascaso Steel DuoV2 be sufficient?
Any plans to review the Cafec Deep27 dripper? Maybe you might want to surprise your wife with a Baccarat 'Lucky Butterfly' in Blue Scarabee (or other colors) -- or a Dale Tiffany AV23130 Villa Cuzzano Murano Style multi-colored vase.
I should put the deep27 on the list. Feedback on dripper reviews is really helpful, I feel like there are a lot of these but I’m still wrapping my head around what is the most helpful to include in a dripper review. Feedback is welcome! As to the others… 🤣🤣🤣🫡🫡🫡
As a young married guy who loves tinkering with my coffee from the local roaster I have a almost worst situation where my wife has hated coffee her whole life. She loves tea but she will never even consider drinking coffee and as a result she thinks my coffee hobby is ridiculous
If your partner doesn’t back your coffee hobby then they probably aren’t the right partner for you. In the whole scheme of things a coffee hobby even if heavily invested is cheaper and less elaborate than many hobbies out there.
Hey I’m just here for the coffee reviews and have ZERO interest in relationship advice topics. Not my jam. I guess this video was not for me, No thank you.
