Indonesian here, interesting to see hear your view of the indonesian coffee market. Yes, the common coffee trend in here goes more to the sweeter side. We kind of have a sweet tooth. Interesting note, so many people here use the ROK to pull the espresso for making the Kopi Susu.
The single origins are definitely around, just not as common.
Not that actual specialty doesn't exist. I can get fairly decent, recently-roasted 250g beans at... roughly 9 USD, I think. Selection is limited to only Indonesian origins of course, and I'm not sure how specific they are, but it's still fairly nice. Cheap burr grinder is 10~ USD, if you drink it traditionally you probably won't need french press (cheap ones can be as low as 10~ USD too if you're lucky).
Also, many stores has began to carry whole coffee beans, as opposed to pre-ground. And I don't mean big store - I mean independent convenience store, small supermarket, that sort of thing. Sure, they are all... not the best, but the fact they do it at all is a surprise. They usually never bother.
You can buy actual, brewed specialty coffee, but at 1> USD per cup imo it's generally not worth it, unless you want to try something new or you drink for socialization.
@@TheWeepingMan man, I think even 9 USD per 250gr is a bit too much for single origin coffee here.
I often buy some roasted specialty-coffee beans from online shops and cafe, they usually sells for about 4-7 USD per 250gr pack for decent ones like Arabica Sidikalang or Toraja, and even cheaper for robusta. The only beans that I think can reach above 9USD are probably Wine coffee, Luwak coffee and some other purposely process-modified coffee.
@@TheWeepingMan I think you're looking at the wrong place, there is a lot of great specialty place already in jkt/bdg and also a lot of great roasters. They charge more though, 18USD+ per 250g probably.
Yeah, 7 USD-ish. I still use the old rule of thumb where 10k IDR = 1 USD, sigh. I am not on Java unfortunately, but it's nice to know beans are also cheaper there.
Probably can't buy lot of 'em regardless, I prefer freshly-roasted beans :p
@@TheWeepingMan yeah, many stuffs will be cheaper in Java because most things would be shipped there first. But, where do you live? I think most main islands have their own specialty coffee, oftentimes multiple of them. Surely they should be cheaper on its source than in Java, aren't they?
Sometimes if you're lucky and try hard enough, you may find some good coffee from less recognized origins. I.e in North Sumatera the main sells are probably Mandheling and Sidikalang. But coffee from Samosir tastes nice too.
James: show a solid 20 second beauty shots of dolce gusto.
Also James: "Oh no“
the best and worst dolce gusto commercial XD
@@lautbiru2884 No matter how good they market it, instant coffee is still instant coffee. Rather than buying an expensive machine like that, do a favor and buy a decent Moka Pot or French Press and you'll have better coffee for daily drinking.
@@kyrios0307 is dolce gusto instant coffee? I thought the capsule contains ground coffee, not instant coffee. But I agree with your point, manual brew is cheaper and better.
@@lautbiru2884 it's somewhat "instant". Point is, you pay premium price for a machine that produces low quality coffee. Any other coffee gadget costs way less than the Dolce Gusto machine and produce better coffee
Ini pasti orng indo 🤣🤣
If you comb your hair in the other direction you'll become an extrovert.
This is true fact
hahshaha
Scientifically proven!
SO TRUE!
🤣
2:00 " I'll just wait. We'll get coffee later. " 😂🤣😂
So sincere so polite. 😆👍
ABCD is an absolutely amazing name!
The ABCD coffee school looks so fresh (and their auditorium at 2:09 really gives me Star Wars Death Star vibes)!
Apparently the design was directly inspired by by it!
YESSS! I came to the comments to say this also!!
...sorry for me it's the bridge in Trek hah
Ga nyangka Bang James main ke Jakarta! Keren!
Hi James, thanks for the short trip to Jakarta. Thanks for letting people know about coffee trend in Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia.
Mantul
Mantap ni si abang james nyeruput kopi susu
Bentar lagi udah gam capital of Indonesia lagi
James: I’ve got more travel coming up
Covid19: hold my coffee a sec
"It's probably a bad idea, right? It's a bad idea?"
*Inserts capsule*
James and his bad ideas, thanks for making me chuckle
Janice Yue I loved the fact it was filmed with the same artistic style and care as when showing more refined techniques!
And I was screaming nooooooo!😂
Yes! Absolutely more of the travel diaries. Well done!
As a fan from indonesia, I just wanted you to try coffee from around the island. My favorite was Sumatra and toraja coffee. The notes was amazing for me.
Kopi Kalosi (Toraja) is the best in the world...
@@DavidKearns4 If you have the money, Kopi Luwak is the best. Be prepared to spend $500+ per lbs tho..
@@DavidKearns4 Sapan Toraja. Hold my beer
The video editing is so fantastic here! 🔥 I like the: "What do I do today somewhere else?" format.
So great to finally can watch your video in Jakarta...
Wishing to be able to meet you some times in future when you have another trip here.
IMHO, you could show the viewers what's going on during the trip, may be like moments when you're having talk session(s), tasting some recommended local coffee shops, going to some local coffee roasteries, or even brewing coffee with local beans (if you have some more time to be spent on).
I love your vlogs because they are storytelling more than show and tell. Makes me appreciate that you don't take out your phone to vlog while socialising with other people. That is a rare gift in this day and age where everybody feels they need to be online all the time.
show me da cawfee icons o nu yoik
The best bit of the Aus/NZ one was when you sat down with Matt Perger, so more stuff about the people driving coffee in that city forward and what their ideas are would be very interesting.
I'm surprised that you came to Jakarta! I'm living in Malaysia, close to Indonesia. Hope there is a chance you will travel to Malaysia or any other Asia countries in future and meet you in person! And yes, it's interesting to watch your travel log, the shots are amazing. :)
Yay Malaysian here but I can't deny Indonesia has a much larger and more refined coffee culture than ours in general.
Me going to Bali, Bandung, and Jakarta. All of them are jsut incredible.
@@Iman626625interesting. I think it comes down to how much bigger Indonesian territory is. Different areas will have different terroirs that will produce different kinds of vibrant coffee flavors.
Which in turn will help the growth of coffee culture I think.
Yes, show us all your travels.
thank you for coming James :)
Travel vlogs are always enjoyable, it gives many of us a new insight into a life that we would never experience. Keep them coming!
Love it! Your tour diary is passionate, eloquent and fantastic from a different perspective.Yes more please
Great format! Please more or this. Thank you!
I am a big fan of "kopi tubruk" which I personally think is the ultimate and most simple way of making coffee. Just yesterday a colleague of mine and I stopped by a place in Jakarta called "Bakoel Koffie" in center Jakarta (Koffie is the Dutch spelling for coffee), where they served me a most amazing tubruk made from Timor coffee. They roast all their coffee themselves. A well made tubruk has a lot of body, the perfect cup bringing out all the flavors available in a coffee without changing it by any particular way of preparing your coffee. Tubruk grind is similar to Turkish, so very fine though a bit courser as true Turkish, finer as espresso though. Any medium or finer grind can make a nice tubruk, but finer grinds are preferred. After pouring your near boiling water on the ground coffee in your cup let it steep, then add sugar if you want (no milk), stir and wait for the grounds to have settled in the bottom of your cup. Blow the top of your cup (to have any ground coffee still present in the "crema" sink down as well) and enjoy.
Keep posting what you love to share. I hope to see you in Portland this April.
Wow.. i didn’t know you were in Jakarta! James .. after this corona pandemic resolved (hopefully soon) .. please visit back Indonesia and explore cities and villages that produce traditional coffee beans.. Indonesia is a coffee heaven
made me laugh as per usual at the 'oh no ' moment ..... 2.01 James drinks bad coffee better than anyone else.
Yes, more travel stuff! 👍🏻
yes please , more of your travel videos
Finally you are in my home town Jakarta..I missed the WeatherShot there..thank u for sharing this video..
I’ve just watched this video. I like this kind of semi-vlog. Looking forward to see this kind video again
Yes all these videos of your trips and of course coffee testing events! Thank You Take Care Cheers!
Love the travel videos. Love the perspective of coffee and the world, both equally intriguing
Love this! Keep the videos coming!
Oh wow! Would've loved to meet you in jakarta! Big respect for you james!
Love it. Thank you James.
Definitely more travel vlogs along with visiting shops and tasting local coffee!
Hope you enjoyed the visit. Definitely should visit again later and maybe do a longer trip around the country to taste the local specialties.
Really enjoyed the travel vlog. Thank you for taking the time to upload on your busy schedule.
Welcome to Jakarta, James!
Accidentally bounced on this vid and I gotta say that you should come back. So much to explore here and yes we need you back to experience the coffee scene down here in Indo.
I think these are great and keep making them! Seeing all the different places, and how coffee is a part of their culture in unique and different ways is interesting. Your knowledge of coffee would give great insights to each place you travel to, and what trends are happening there!
Yes James! We want more travel vlogs
Super cool seeing travel from this perspective. Love to know why you are going to each country you mentioned at the end.
Welcome!!! Thanks for coming! You should try Jogjakarta, there’s a lot of great coffee and coffee shops there. Have a great time!
Welcome to Jakarta , Mr. James 🙏
yes james we want to see more of these...
Yeah more travel! Italy, Vietnam and the egg coffee, Asia, Ethiopia, Kenya everywhere....
Please, more tour diaries!
Love to se what you do :D seeing coffee related content that is not machines or grinders is really fascinating
Yes to more travel coffee videos. So fascinating.
Try Jogjakarta James, its a kot more diverse than Jakarta. One of the reasons it's that lots of suppliers save their beans around middle java
Yes definitely more travel vlogs! Love em!
Great video, +1 and a yes vote from me for more Hoffmann Travel Videos please. And can you make it a feature of each time you travel to brew and taste the hotel room coffee. Loved that. Safe travels.
Jakartan here, 5:20 it is indeed what your vision is, well at least for me. Back then i drink only milky sweet coffee stuff when the craze about coffee started to take off in here. Then i started chasing that perfection, started to search for espresso perfection, build a home barista setup, watch youtube coffee videos like yours, upgrading my gears until i now have a big flat burrs grinder and a NS commercial machine. Trying single origin for espresso, trying various roasting profile for espresso. Now i want to learn about roasting but it seems whole other different beasts. I lost my time so much in this chase of a better coffee 😂
I’m glad you are taken care of in here, just jealous i didn’t know that you were here, would like to meet.
Btw about that traffic condition, i bet you’re here on a weekend ?, the traffic is so much different here on a week days 😁
yes, YES more travel! 😁
May I suggest one exploring the Italian coffee culture? 😁 (I withdraw my suggestion if you already have, I'm fairly new to the channel! ;) )
I really hope one day you'll be the Michael Palin of coffee - going around the world and sharing with us all the different and amazing coffee cultures.
Hope you enjoy your trip
It would be an absolute delight to follow your journeys be it coffee or otherwise.
Food and drink delivery appears to be huge all over Asia. People in China seem stunned when I tell them it wouldn't be cost effective to get bubble tea or whatever delivered in the states.
Yes, more of these travel videos please! :)
These travel vlogs are pretty neat
It is a honor to have U here in Jakarta
Yes Please James, more travels! You should go to Thailand they in the north a very interesting coffee production and Vietnam would be great too!
Keep up the good work!
Love the travel videos, want to see more!
If James expanded this travel series concept I could see him filling some of the void that Anthony Bourdain left. James is humble, inquisitive and genuine, which were all qualities that made Anthony Bourdain so wonderful.
Yes. More travel diaries are great. Mix it up!
Yes show more travel video and strolling coffee culture
Love the travel vlogs, please do more. Also great to hear you mention your introversion. I'm also an introvert who does a bit of public speaking. I found the stuff about Free Trait Theory in Susan Cain's book Quiet really interesting and informative. Safe travels.
Yes more vlogs please!
Have you ever thought about starting a coffee podcast? I feel like there would be enough to talk about and I love your voice!
I'm so sad there are no more of these Tour Diaries.
Welcome to our region!
Like these travel stories.
Love Jakarta
you are coming here to Saudi Arabia!!😍 this news just made my day. Can't wait to meet you ❤️
Keep creating this type of travel log video.
Really enjoying the travel videos! Would love to see more coffee shops and maybe some interviews in the places you visit.
Your travel vlogs are interesting; I like seeing the different and local coffee trends and culture. Most of all I'd like to see you being able to take a slower pace and enjoy the trips; it's crazy how you arrive at a country, visit cafes, give talks, attend events and fly off - all in 1 day.
I really enjoyed this. I definitely would watch more of these.
Glad to see that you had a good time! Definitely interested in seeing more of these vlog style travel videos. Would be really cool to see the coffee culture in Saudi.
darn, i missed your visit. would have been great to meet you in person. well, hope to see you next time, james.
James in February 2020: "There's gonna be more travel vlogs! I'm going to New York in March!"
Me watching in February 2021: "Oh, honey..."
Love the vlogs.
I hoped (but didn't really expect) you were going to compare the hotel-room coffee to the 70's coffee :-) Favorite part of this was what's *distinctive* here, what made this place worth flying all the way around the world for, what did you pick up that you'd never find in London. Please keep doing them!
All future travel diaries should have a mandatory hotel room coffee tasting included!
Woow, mantap gan!!! Didnt expect that you come here
Love the travel vids. Would be cool to see the tasting notes/beans/brewing method pop up on the screen like a little fact sheet when you're trying all the coffee you drink whilst traveling.
Glad to watch your vlog in Indonesia, hope you will come again and review our local coffee product that much more ridiculous than your morning nestle machine
These are fantastic. I would love to see a more in-depth look at the café culture in the the places you visit. For example, you could conduct interviews with local folks who can speak more directly about how coffee is prepared and consumed both in coffee shops and at home.
Love this 👍🏻
Hello welcome to jakarta!
Coffee industry is booming for last five years.
Holyy moly youre in my hometown
Yes more travel videos
James Hoffmann: Yes, please, to travel vlogs! Love your channel and I've started experimenting with pour over coffee at home because of you. :D
Welcome to jakarta. You must try & review some legendary (old) coffe shop in Jakarta, like "kopi es tak kie", "kong djie coffe", "kedai phoeman".
Really like the tour videos 🙂👍🏻 would love to see the New York one in particular! Do you know what the “Flat-White (TM)” brand is that one of the students at the school had on his hoodie is?
Welcome to my home country 🥰🥰 hope you're enjoying all of the coffee vibes here 😄😄
Honestly first time that make me so inspired is your coffee atlas. Thank you for introducing me with coffee through your book
Jelly as 🔥hell🔥😆!
24 hours in Jakarta beats a year in Michigan. Love the vid
Please please pleaaaaase more travel coffee content man. This was really interesting. I love seeing new trends and cafes, but I'd love seeing more discussion with the people behind them.

More travel content, for sure!
