  • Sort of. I did it to fit a bigger basket and more coffee. But one of those needle jobbies did help with the spraying issue. And now I’m one of those poundshop Hoffman cunts I promised myself I wouldn’t be

  • Probably the easiest thing you can do is stop watching Hoffmann and you’ll enjoy drinking coffee again! I love watching the guy and have learned loads, but the more I watch the more it spoils my enjoyment of coffee.

  • I don’t watch him. I watched one video and immediately thought “fuck this”

  • Watch vids > learn tekkers > make better coffee > stop watching vids.

    Any time I fall too deep down the rabbit hole with the videos, I just end up feeling like they go too deep for what I can be bothered with, or just they're seeking a level of refinement that's not really possible with my setup without a serious investment of time and effort.

    Like, I can make what I consider to be a really decent espresso every morning. Occasionally it goes awry, but for the best part I get great shots with balance and body, and to make gains beyond this starts feeling frustrating and I'm never even really sure what I'm even trying to achieve.
