  • As recommended, picked up the Sage off @HatBeard.

    Anyone got any tips for the grind settings?

    Will be used for now on aeropress, but will be buying my Robot next week I think, which will become the main apparatus at home.

    I'm not looking for award winning quality cups, just a decent cup at home.

    This will mostly be with medium roast fyi. Not a fan of overly light or overly dark roasts.

  • Love how this is progressing! Wonderful little forum bubble!

    Robot owner here too, they are fantastic, you won't regret it. I would suggest getting a spare shower screen just in case and the silicon plug for preheating when you order as postage is quite high for accessories later on! Pre heating isn't totally necessary with dark beans but I think it is worthwhile when dealing with lighter roasts. Oh and get the hands!

  • Grind settings - find the one that gives you your preferred extraction (easy to start with 1:2 bean to brew ratio by weight) in about 30s as a starting point, then adjust up and down based on taste preferences. How exactly the adjustments affect taste I leave for those with finer palates than mine, but generally finer = longer extraction, more bitter/body, and coarser = shorter extraction, less bitter/more bright.
