1st Chemex attempt

This was the first coffee I ever made using a chemex. I used a 16:1 ratio to make this. I think the coffee grind I used were too fine, so I’m going to grind a much coarser batch.

Affogato

In this video I give a step by step process of how to make an Italian desert called Affogato. Simply put, its espresso over ice cream, and its delicious!

Root beer Espresso

This recipe I Stole from Doug at Because Coffee. It combines 2 shots of espresso with 1 booze o root beer. This tasted pretty good, but I feel like it would be better if the root beer was warm and the coffee was hot, and then add 1 scoop of ice cream to make a coffee root beer float. 

I

I did not make any coffee today. However, I have spent my evening researching Kopi Luwak. 

I’m definitely going to be making this coffee hopefully in December, but I am unsure if it will be before or after my final presentation. I personally will not want to make my first cup myself, I’d rather have someone more experienced than I at doing it. 

Who knows.. I may just surprise somebody with the rarest most expensive coffee in the world this Christmas. 

  I didn’t drink coffee all weekend. I’m kinda sad about it.

Coconut Carmel Latte

This is the most recent Latte I’ve experimented with. This latte had a cream of 2/3 milk 1/3 coconut milk w/ salted Carmel. I’m going to experiment with more creams in the future. 

1st Latte

This was my first attempt at making a latte. It turned out amazing, but I have been experimenting with it these past couple days and I feel like I can make it even better. In this you can see that instead of using a steam wand for the milk, I simply boiled it and then whipped it in a French press. This turned out to be a good method, and once I use whole milk rather then 1%, it will be better. I can’t do any real latte art, but I asked someone who can to do some for me, and this method works with it if you can do it.
