I can't help thinking an asmr cupping video would be great for April Fool's. The pleasant roasting, grinding, gentle tinkle of the spoon against the side of the cup. Then a Mach 4 shluuurrrp.
Although some might say that you can do much better magic after the first cup... so the first coffee of the day is more functional, while the second is the more magic one.
Awesome video. Went for the flair pro 2 myself, but the workflow is almost the same and it's always sooo relaxing. Might I ask if you used the coffee straight after roasting? I often read, that you should at least let ot rest for 4 to 5 days.
Thanks J! I love the Hive. It’s a company that’s a one man show, and he’s got some with now that can be hooked up to roasting software, and with digital temperature read outs. But for this one, I wanted to use the fully manual, “pure” version.
Are the beans roasted for need to use basis or as a batch and kept aside. Motivated me to brew own cup this morning after watching it. Truly pleasant and calming video.
@@Sprometheus Absolutely I did, thank you and it literally made my day using the flair Neo.

Does that textile bag of yours work for green bean storage? And if yes, for how long? I'm really concerned about humidity loss in green beans due to oxidation and flavor degradation. Have had problems with large jars, there's just too much air in there at the end of the month. Rn trying old resealable coffee bags as an alternative.
I don’t think that textile bag is all that great for long term storage, and that’s just the bag Royal sends samples in. I think though, the biggest factor in keeping green for longer is maintaining a cool, dry space for keeping it.
Thank you I appreciate that. I’m sure a lot of people do, but those folks deserve some recognition for the help they provide me in making these videos.
@@Sprometheus very valid point- suggestion, mix the recognition at different points of the video so viewers will be less inclined to skip. For example when you show your Niche or your Kruve glasses, you could subliminally insert “thank you to xxx xxx xxx for your contributions... »
Lovely video and may I ask two questions about your routine? 1 - You're getting really nicely even coverage on your portafilter. Are you doing any declumping in your basket? I'm doing a bit on results from my kinu grinder using a small balloon whisk with the ends cut off into prongs and think it might be doing more harm than good, curious if you're going straight in or dong any other puck prep. 2 - has your approach changed at all in terms of your ramp and pressure when brewing? It seems you're holding for a bit of a preinfuse (though this maybe be for portafilter porn) rather than a swift ramp up as you described in your initial review?
Thanks John, I appreciate the kind words. So, I do not do any sort of de-clumping outside of tapping the portafitler on the counter. This serves two purposes: one to settle, and two to break down clumps. From there is just about an even tamp and application of pressure. In terms of my robot method, I still use the fast ramp up and slow hold around 6 bar. I find that that the quick pressure build up tends to fill the screen more for me than the slow pre-infusion. But that's just my experience, and if you read the comments on my Robot video you'll find there are many who disagree...but we all rinsed our Aeropress filters too, so...maybe we shouldn't judge people for questioning the norms, haha.
@@Sprometheus I ask as I find the robot inconsistent for me - I went for some espresso training to get my taste better and the teacher said I’d chosen the hardest possible route for myself :D - it seems less repeatable than some other methods (even though channeled shots are still nice) so still looking for more places to refine!
The evenness of that roast, wow! At least from what I've seen it's pretty hard to get that over the stove, even with a rotisserie style hand roaster, and especially with that amount of beans. Was that all you or does the Hive really do that much better a job?
I can see some edited bits and parts here and there. I suppose the intention was to make this in one go for the authenticity of it yet some fiddling was required. Still pretty decent, the angles were good and the personal routine approach felt nice. It wasn't too drawn out either so good on you.
I could definitely put that together! Excited to see people enjoying this one, I wasn’t sure it would be all that accepted as it’s pretty different from my usual.
I did. That is popular opinion, but I like to question those opinions. I find the texture to be higher with fresher beans, which is one of the factors I enjoy about espresso.
@@marcochiasson2298 yeah, I cooled them all the way down and stored them for a bit while I got everything else prepped up. But, I did test grinding beans warmed up and frozen and if I recall warmer beans did extract a bit better.
I don't care if I didn't get any tingles. The video alone was excellent! Superb quality that reminds me of BBC TV shows/documentaries. Also was it just me, but could you almost smell the coffee through the screen?!
@ 2:50 I felt deceived, because I think you edited out the beans falling to the kitchen floor. @ 4:08 Ah you have regained my trust :) Beautifully shot and edited !
Excellent all manual coffee (porn) video. You do need to work on your hand grinding technique a little :) I keep thinking about the Hive roaster, but the volume is too small to be practical for me.
Thanks Jaime, glad you enjoyed it. Haha, well if in the end of grinding the coffee is ground I call that a win. The Hive is a great tool, but definitely could be held back a bit by its capacity. I tend to do 125-150g batches as they produce the best results for me.
Yeah I feel you. I did a lot of messing around with the audio in post to see if I could remove some of the fuzz. I found a balance that was relatively happy with, too much noise removal created weird hollow sounding audio. This was my first attempt at ASMR, so I figured if people enjoyed it I would dig more into the audio quality moving forward.
Everybody says it’s “too hard” to grind espresso in a hand grinder but it looks just as easy as I’d imagined? How lazy can ppl be! Especially for something like espresso that already takes a lot of extra effort why not spend 2 more second and a minuscule amount of energy to turn a lever
ASMR isn’t for everyone that’s for sure. Personally I haven’t been big into it, but I enjoy getting outside of my comfort zone sometimes. This one was fun to produce.
@@Sprometheus would love to see one with. I think the native sounds are super powerful, and should be the hero in the mix still, but a little something to carry it along would be 🙌🏼
@@thekingofleon7 I feel you! Definitely worth considering on the next one. Probably releasing two simultaneously with and without some music accompaniment.
On one side I'd love to do this workflow manually because it seemed so therapeutic, and on the other I just want to enjoy my coffee conveniently with the help of modern tools while I go about my other morning routines. So I guess I should have both tools for manual and modern coffee making. Sigh, might need to save more then 🥲😅
I didn't know what asmr stands for (I'm not really a social media guy, but did my research now) but watching the video I thought it must stand for "another soothing morning routine".
Okay but that's like really smart though
that's Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response...
It took you probably 10x the amount of time to write your comment than it would have to google the term "ASMR" and find out.
@@LucasCarter2It would have taken you even less effort to read that he said "did my research now" implying that he already looked it up and commented what he initially thought it meant
Damn 😂😂
I felt like at some point I was randomly going to hear “Stay caffeinated pony boy.”
It felt weird not saying it! First video ever, or at least since I started that kick phrase 2 plus years ago...
@@loscoiattolomaledetto500 that’s true! What a missed opportunity!
He could have just walked outside and rode away on a pony...
The sound of opening the Atmos - chefs kiss
I love that sound, had to include it haha.
I like how you kept it all manual. So therapeutic.
For sure! I was thinking it would be the best way to get all the sounds without machinery noise.
I love how mindful a coffee routine can be.
I love how specific, clean and pro looking the coffee brewing equipment is
I'm weirdly get Peaceful Cuisine vibe in this video.
Well he’s kind of the coffee ASMR champ, so I appreciate that!
I was thinking the same especially from the close up shots. Nice content regardless!
I can't help thinking an asmr cupping video would be great for April Fool's. The pleasant roasting, grinding, gentle tinkle of the spoon against the side of the cup. Then a Mach 4 shluuurrrp.
Haha, well I have about a year to plan it. April 1st is on a Friday next year!
i just KNEW your equipment (from film/sound to coffee paraphernalia) would be perfect for this kind of ASMR. PLEASE make more!
Thank you! It seems people have enjoyed it, so I just might! I think the audio could use a little work, but otherwise I was happy with the outcome.
Nicely shot, nicely edited. And you absolutely captured the magic of the first coffee of the day. Thanks!
Thanks Dominic! I appreciate the kind words my friend!
Although some might say that you can do much better magic after the first cup... so the first coffee of the day is more functional, while the second is the more magic one.
Ahh the serenity.
Soaking it up!
Just wonderful. So peaceful
Thank you, glad you enjoyed! Happy Friday!
I want all of this but done in a forest only using a campfire!!! Pretty please!
I could probably make that happen!
Perfect for a Friday!
It is a great way to move into the weekend! Thanks for watching and the kind words!
Everything is so quite and peaceful... AD IN YOUR FACE EVERY 3 MINUTES
Great shots. I like the medium-zoom, half-way detail frames. Thanks for a meditative, artistic piece.

After watching speed this relaxed the vibe.
Absolutely, impeccable and superbly done video, coffee poetry in motion. Perfect
Thanks Orrin! Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you for putting it in perspective.
Awesome work! When my day gets stressful, Ill simply time out and watch this video :) Loved it
Thanks David! Glad you liked it and glad it could be helpful!
4:15 the most beautiful part :D

Do you recommend the bee hive for someone's first step into home roasting?
Lovely video and may I ask two questions about your routine?

Nice work friend!
Thanks! Couldn’t have done it without the Hive!

Yeah it’s an interesting video to make. Definitely requires some extra thought to maintain the straightforward progression. Thanks for watching!
It would have been really funny if at the end you took a sip of the espresso then SPIT IT OUT! 😄. But really, nice work
ASMR Linea workflow please!
I could definitely put that together! Excited to see people enjoying this one, I wasn’t sure it would be all that accepted as it’s pretty different from my usual.
Did you pull a shot using beans you just roasted? Popular opinion is to wait 5-10 days after roast. Thoughts? Any difference in the cup?
I did. That is popular opinion, but I like to question those opinions. I find the texture to be higher with fresher beans, which is one of the factors I enjoy about espresso.
@@Sprometheus I've done this, only 5 hours in. And I agree.
@@Sprometheus good to know. It would make for a nice and relax bean to cup Saturday morning routine. 👍
@@Sprometheus do you wait for the beans to cool down to room temp before grinding? I would think so.
@@marcochiasson2298 yeah, I cooled them all the way down and stored them for a bit while I got everything else prepped up. But, I did test grinding beans warmed up and frozen and if I recall warmer beans did extract a bit better.
Anyone notice he collects the dropped bean😁
Have you been enjoying the robot’s shots without preheating like you did in this video?
I preheated in this video. I still always preheat.
@@Sprometheus any details to share around that? Would love to hear as I’m experimenting with different methods of preheating :)

What happens if you don't roast it? Nice vid brother
Lovely
Thank you my friend! Glad you enjoyed!
That one coffee bean that spilled out from the hand grinder. I wierdly noticed and felt uncomfortable with that.
The spinning above the flame is a bit loud but other wise great video.
How about adding soothing jazz in the edit…. That aside, enjoyed your video❤
Very nice video in all aspects !
This is how you start the day with mindfulness - nice that you also pay tribute to the one bean that fell down; =)
Thank you! Of course, no bean left behind!
Love the video. Reminds me of @eriknormark

You need a better control over mic gain between the different shots
Yeah, this was my first attempt. I rarely use the camera mounted mic, so that could use some dialing in.
no first crack? 😭
You didn't heart it? I included a bit of it, kind of hard to hear over the shaking though.
