This is a technique I came across in this video:

https://youtu.be/\_z8d8SLabTA?si=XJHInoLwiE0QkG7U

21gms Arabica in the V60 21 Clicks on C2S

15gms Robusta in the Drip Bag 18 Clicks on C2S

Both Medium Roasts

Robusta Bloomed separately first

Arabica bloomed and brewed over the Robusta in the drip bag

Slow circular motion for the V60 to create uniform agitation in the Robusta

Water temperature when starting: 93DegC

Result:

Heavy but smooth body

Fruit with dark chocolate taste and a lingering aftertaste

70:30 Blend of Arabica and Robusta

Stockholm Roasters Co. Bordeaux & Roastery Coffee House Harley Estate Robusta

Brewer: 1 Cup Moka Pot

Dose: 11gms Espresso fine grind

Brew Water: 45gms Hot water

Yield: 30gms

Final Drink: Americano 1:3 Ratio

Brewed with my Depressurized Nanopresso & Barista Kit 16gms Basket:

Dose: 14gms Medium Roast 80:20

Grind: 10 Clicks on Timemore C2S

Boiling pre-heat & brew water

Pumping speed: 1 Pump/sec.

Yield: 39gms

Using a dosing funnel and WDT really helps to get a good shot.

I wasn't able to bring out the same amount of foam as that in my last upload, but this is the whole workflow. I may have overdone a few things. The whole process takes 10 mins, brought down to a 5 mins video.

I have another pots base for the puck-prep, but during my weekend work travels I can't carry that much. Hence that small cap to collect the grounds that leak down.

The Camping Stove is necessary, as only my home stoves hob is as small. The focused flame also helps for a quicker start to the extraction. I almost always use it for Moka Brewing.

One out of the two Coffee packs is of TWC Monsooned Malabar but it is actually a certain brands 80:20 blend of Arabica and Robusta and other beans are Classic Coffee Rum Barrel Aged Arabica. The blend ratio is 9:1.

Ground at 6 clicks on C2S.

It was my first brew with this certain brand's beans and to my surprise this cup was an absolute bomb given how much hate it receives here. Made an Americano of 120gms with the extraction. Brewed 2 times at my friends places yesterday with the 2 Cup Brikka too. Very good cups again.

Enjoy the audio too.

I guess I had ground much finer for the brew linked above. Maybe as fine as Turkish Coffee. 4 clicks on my Timemore C2S.

The amount of fresh Robusta in the blend too may have something to do with that extra Crema.

I had carried the Americano I made with this extraction in my glass tumbler to the movie and generally they do not let you carry food and beverages from outside, but they checked and asked if its Coffee and just let me carry it in.

For the first time I was able to have great Coffee during a movie instead of the hit or miss cups from the in-theater outlets.
