      Please make a custom built espresso holder/maker, that can actually withstand the pressures, use thick steel & rubber seals & whatever is needed to make it work :)
      Maybe a longer/deeper "water cylinder" (whatever it's called) that the "plunger"(?) goes down through.

    Time for Finnish cafés to start springing up all around the world. You walk in, there's a 300 ton hydraulic press behind the counter, and a big, bald barista with a big smile asks if you'd like to try the "Espresso 5 million".

      I think it will be interesting if he make a giant scaled up espresso brewer, like, basket the size of a big bucket, and it brew into a giant tank with a tap. Really interested in seeing how 20kg of espresso pulled looks like. rofl The key to this is to have consistent pressure of 9 bars, but through huge coffee puck, there is no other way to brew such monstrosity without a hydraulic press.

    I had an idea for a video while building hydraulic lines yesterday and thought it would be a perfect project for you, use the 300 ton press to press a smaller diameter piston to generate extremely hight pressures, which has a small section of hydraulic hose which is capped off, it would be very interesting to see the different types of fittings and hoses pressurized to failure. 3000psi hose vs higher pressure hoses exploding
    NPT, JIC, ORB etc, (each types weakness)
    Also pipe tape vs liquid thread sealers

      Get an E&B labs competition moka filter! You end up having to go back to a drip-ish grind but the filter adds so much backpressure you end up with a way longer contact time so the extraction is much more complete than with a fine grind and the normal filter. It slows the brew time enough to make timing the brew to avoid under/over extraction much easier, too.

    Add a relief hole on the side of the water-chamber with a valve on it.
    This allows you to fill the chamber full of water, then align the piston and gently push it in with the valve open a bit so you can replace the water with the piston.
    Now you close the valve and make coffee! This also lets you reduce the total volume of water a bit so the coffee is not watery.

      I'm really curious if we crush coffee beans or extrude it through tiny hole instead of grinding them with burrs, would it turned out as good ground.

    My daughter, who is the Metrology Engineer for a large OEM oil filter mfg., walked through my room while you were pressing. She started naming all of the tonnages of their presses used in making parts for oil filters. From 10 tons to 600 tons. She is responsible for making sure all measuring equipment used is in calibration. She works in 10 millions of inches to much larger gauges. She is also certified to test and repair gauges used in measuring the measuring gauges. She has to go to their other factories to check that their equipment is accurate.

      But can she make coffee with a 600-ton press?

    • @bigun447
      @bigun447 7 місяців тому

      She said it looked nice but did not have enough tonnage to press as many oil filter base plates in one push as their production requires. She listed the number and tonnage of just the ones she remembers and it amazed me. I understand the filter can presses are fast and stout. Maybe I will remember to ask her sometime.@@DH-xw6jp

    As an engineer (albeit electrical) and a coffee lover I think you would need to build a portafilter and an espresso basket specifically for this application. The espresso baskets currently are stamped out of a really thin piece of metal and then drilled. They are targeted for 9-11 bars of pressure (standard for espresso is 9 bars actually) so they are not designed to handle a press machine. And besides the basket, the locking system of the portafilter to the espresso "machine" body is similarly not designed to withstand that pressure.
    So whenever you try to push the water through the espresso puck (which is insanely compressed after you pressed it with a hydraulic press) the water essentially finds a smaller resistance path through the sides of the portafilter rather than the puck itself. So you need to, at the very least, design the body where you mount the portafilter to, so that the steel column extends deep inside the portafilter and has a very good o-ring so that it seals shut the "puck" from the "outside" of the portafilter. Perhaps even have it go all the way down to the bottom of the basket itself and then load the coffee grounds and tamp it from the top. I.e. just have a big thick cylinder with an o-ring at the bottom lip that extends inside the portafilter and espresso basket and just use the portafilter as a way to "seal off" that big cylinder.
    I would be really curious what pressures you would be able to achieve then and how the coffee would taste. Perhaps Lauri could also make a super light roast to compensate for the extremely increased extraction of the high pressure! Would be a very exciting experimente

      He answered this one a LONG time ago -- he did some more research and he believes that he probably could do it but there would be no way to observe it, so it would make a terrible video.

    Probably due to the cold weather, one thing Canadians and Finns have in common is our love for coffee! Per capita, we are the biggest caffeine consumers in the world, Finland being at the top.
    To this, I raise my cup, and salute you friend! ☕💥 Thanks for making these. Stay warm, winter's almost over!

    Great video! the first thing i would improve is the coffe handle. Manufacture and machine an own "handle" that is way stronger and seals properly so all the pressure HAS to go through the coffe and cant escape.

    You should put a ton of ground coffee into your pressure chamber and force the water into the coffee! Then you can press it back out!!!!!!!!! That might actually be pretty tasty thinking about it....

    This is my favorite HPC video this year!
    It's the seal at the top of the portafilter that breaks down before the water is done going through the puck. I wonder if there is a way to make a stronger seal at the top. I think you should consider making your own version of an Aeropress out of steel. :D
    Perhaps a steel tube filled with a column of coffee and you can see what happens when you try to push the water through different amounts of compressed coffee 3cm, 5cm, 10cm! 10 centimeter tall coffee puck!

    I'm thinking you need a custom-machined portafilter. Could keep it at 58mm diameter, but with big beefy lugs, maybe an O-ring for where it seats against the brew chamber, and thick floor/screen with very small holes (maybe laser-drilled to achieve small diameter / high aspect ratio).
