      It’s hard to recreate agitation, and with the Melodrip, we’re actually going for as little agitation as possible. We’ve also started trying WDT on the dry grounds for much more even saturation with less water for the bloom

    Works great with an Aeropress too, thank you! I live in a country where robusta is cheaper and more available, and I don't have an immersion dripper (or my V60 at the moment), only an Aeropress. Both the Aeropress inversion method and the 'James Hoffman' Aeropress method work great with a 40s cold water bloom, 2 minutes of still brewing, a light swirl followed by a 30s wait for the crust to be broken up and then a press. Drinking the robusta brew black is real nice (this comes from someone who regularly drinks Arabica with milk). Thanks again, this changed my mind about robusta!

      Not at all a dumb question! You can totally adapt it to a v60, stagg, kalita, melitta, etc… just bring your hot water temp closer to 93°C since the constant stream will be stripping more solubles as opposed to the partial immersion 👍

      Deveras depende. La Cascara puede ser trillada para llenar un saco de café a 20 kilos o un poquito más. De valor al productor, 3.50-7.00 dólares dependiendo de calidad. Los costos de importación son caras para el comprador. Ojalá esto los ayuden!

    Hello Chromatic Coffee friends, what a good result of the fermentation process you used, we want to tell you, we are a Colombian company dedicated to the production, commercialization and export of innovative coffees made with fruits, we use different processes of mixing coffee with fruits such as pineapple , lemon, mango among other typical Colombian fruits, obtaining totally different profiles. We hope to be in touch with you soon to chat a little about your coffees and our coffees. Greetings from Colombia.

    While this is an open vat fermentation, it occurs underwater and there isn’t much chance for respiration from the wild yeasts. Even with the slight bit that is exposed, CO2 is constantly being produced, and not much O2 is present. With a decent presence of sugars, the yeasts prefer fermentation over respiration. The biggest thing to take into consideration is the surface to volume ratio, where the rate of oxygen diffusion into solution is way too low to have much of an effect on the yeast (specially with that CO2). This is measured. The moment CO2 production ceases and most sugars have been converted, the batches drop and are set out to dry.
