  • I've been seeing a lot UA-cam roasts lately and I couldn't help but coffee-fy this trend by asking my subscribers to submit their bars to be roasted by yours truly. A big thank you to all those who submitted, I had to cut the video down drastically for a reasonable runtime, but if it's well received I may do this again in the future. Oh, and remember this is all in good fun.

    To me personally just love seeing coffee bars (like real ones, not from pinterest). Definitely inspiring and you roasting them kinda guides me towards what I should stay away from (minding personal preference, of course) Part 2 soon?

    • @Sprometheus
      @Sprometheus  9 місяців тому +7

      Glad you enjoyed, definitely quite a bit different than my usual but a fun break. I haven’t decided on a part 2 yet, just waiting to see how it all shakes out and the overall feeling from the community on it, but so far seems like the majority had fun.

    You definitely weren’t joking when you said you chose violence LOL I loved how you didn’t hold back and think that’s how these roasts really should go. I think an interesting concept would be a drink recipe submission/competition that requires to use 2 ingredients of your choice like strawberries and bitters. Submissions must include detailed recipe and photo of their drink. Then you could choose 3 recipes that stood out to you and recreate them to taste and choose which one you like best! Maybe the winner could even get a prize??? Love you Spro!

    Loved this video! I'm very interested in seeing other people's coffee bar setups. I agreed with almost all of your critiques. The only one that puzzled me was not liking the machine close to a sink--possibly because, well, my machine is close to my sink. I find that kind of setup very useful for keeping all my coffee equipment clean. Also, it's handy for, say, emptying the water reservoir on my espresso machine. I'd really enjoy seeing a part 2 of a similar video.

She has a foamer, some different mugs, colorful jars filled with sweetener and capsules etc. There are chalk board menus on the wall and photos of farm animals. She has a Minipresso NS2 on a V60 stand too (travel etc). Me, I put my Bambino Plus on my prep table and called it a day.

    As far as the book is concerned, the only thing I could think of that is in the book that isn't on his channel would be his page on cold brew, but he basically says he doesn't like cold brew and you could find countless tutorials online. I got it partially to support what he does, but also it is nice to have things written down and not have to comb through UA-cam videos to find what you need. He also has a page with different grind size examples so it's good to have a visual of the general target your aiming for.

    Very enjoyable episode. I was surprised by the absence of a puck disposal mechanism on many of these setups (knock boxes, etc). There has to be one, but many seemed to think they detracted from 'the view.' Also many of those setups looked jammed together and without a real work space. Those gave me the claustrophobics. OTOH, you'd be horrified to find the left-hand side of my GS3 only 8" from the sink. And my K30 flat burr grinder on another counter. Guess I'd might have a Spro Factor 3 if I'm lucky. 😁 Keep on truckin'!
