Thx for watching! I upload at least once a week so plenty of videos to enjoy.

[@maximkrivov]

Enjoyable presentation and personality. Very balanced and user-friendly opinions and reviews. Keep at it...just as entertaining and watchable as the OG James Hoffman. Well done 👍

Thank you very much for watching and kind words!

Nice video. My favorite grinder? I sometimes prefere comandante c40, sometimes zp6. On competition level i prefere zp6. My recipie: inverted, half of water, coffee, second part of water, stirr few times with aeropress spatula, after 1 min close, reverse, push gently up to 2 minutes. Temperature around 95. Grindsize? Albout 25 on C40. On zp6 around 5.0. On competition I prepared recipie where i used 14g at click 6.0 and 3g on 4.0 click. Sometimes i prefere more chocolate, switness and agitate more, other time i agitate less and it comes more drip like.

[@mycoffeeshow111]

Wow, thx. So you are a pro Areopress barista. Why half water first? I didn’t want to over complicate the recipe for this test. Will have to try your recipes. Thx again.

[@svistaq2907]

@@mycoffeeshow111nah, not barista, entuziast. With half of water first: that's Sławek Saran's idea. He believes attacking coffee from two sides makes extraction more efficient and instant. It also helps with coffee particles that sometimes residue on plunger. I like this idea and it helps reducing agitation if you want more drip like coffee.

[@svistaq2907]

​@@mycoffeeshow111I can recommend also one more recipe. Make inverted, coffee first, pour half of water, stirr for few seconds, wait, at 1:00 pour rest of water, close Ap, ant push gently. It gives tastefull body with clear acidity for me.

[@bluemystic7501]

Hands down, my favorite filter coffee grinder is the Comandante c40.

[@mycoffeeshow111]

It is definitely one of the top grinders in this category. If you like C40 you should like C60. Very similar flavour profile.

@@mycoffeeshow111 Hi Jack, is the C60 a significant upgrade from the C40 Mk4?

[@mycoffeeshow111]

@@lrbrugby hi, not in terms of taste but usability is improved alot. 60sec to grind for espresso and easier to dial in. I have a full video about that.

[@AhmadQ.81]

I use c3 pro and I put it on 10 grinder degree for fine grind. It can can hold 18g and its fare enough for 250ml by the Aeropress. But the brew technique will play a rule here as well. 🎉

[@mycoffeeshow111]

C3 is surprisingly good for the price.

[@BensCoffeeRants]

C40/60 doesn't seem very nice to use lol. Have you tested more with the c3. Maybe it needs seasoning before it opens up some grinders / burrs are like that. I really like my c2 for pour overs (doesn't seem to work well for espresso just takes forever to grind but its super fast coarse grinding) and I've ordered a c3 now to compare. Surprised the Normcore seems pretty nice!

[@mycoffeeshow111]

I’m not saying C3 is bad for the price but compared to the others it seems a bit worst. K Ultra is the only one I spent some time and effort to season but each (apart from Normcore) seen a fair bit of action already.

[@陳成邦]

喜歡1Z K-Ultra！ 還在尋找等待新出一支1Z改款讓歸零動作能像泰摩栗子X-lite這麽簡單就更完美了。

[@mycoffeeshow111]

Well said. No idea what it means but sounds about right 😛

[@flrsilvestre]

I would have loved to see the Kingrinder K6 in this comparison, such a cheap grinder punching way above its weight.

[@mycoffeeshow111]

It has been on my list for some time. Was waiting for Black Friday deals but couldn’t find anything. Well, as you said, it is not very expensive so maybe next year.

[@flrsilvestre]

@@mycoffeeshow111 I think it goes down to 85 euros during black fridays and other special dates. Love your work and passion for coffee, thanks for all the content.

[@mycoffeeshow111]

@@flrsilvestre thx. Yeah, I saw it for around that but by the time I decided to buy they put the price up.

My favorite is the K Ultra but never tried the C60. 🎉😂

[@mycoffeeshow111]

C60 is a one crazy grinder for sure but I already sold it- too expensive to keep.

[@Daniel_Adam]

What setting do you use for the df64 gen2 for the Aeropress? I'm really struggling to get the right grounds

[@mycoffeeshow111]

Honestly I haven’t tried. Somehow I only use hand grinders for it. Still, go in between espresso and pour over. Try around 35 and navigate from there.

[@ariereynaldi]

actually with my budget i only go for timemore c3s pro. it will be my first 'good' grinder.

[@mycoffeeshow111]

It is a very good entry level grinder that can grind pretty much for anything and with a good results. Not perfect but great value for money.

[@themisfitoddity]

get c3 esp. as far as i'm concerned it's the most universal one-far-all from all c3 versions

[@ariereynaldi]

@@themisfitoddity noted, even though I use only for manual brew?

[@themisfitoddity]

@@ariereynaldi i beleive they all (c3) do similarly well here. esp can also do decent turkish and espresso. as the price is pretty much the same i'd go with what is more multifunctional.

[@cwills75]

You forgot the winner, 1Zpresso ZP6 Special.

[@mycoffeeshow111]

Hmm, maybe you are right. I have never had it and only tried a coffee from it once.

[@JOHNOSA]

what you think about 1zpresso Q air?woth it to buy?

[@mycoffeeshow111]

There are so many 1Zpresso it is difficult to keep up with them. Q Air should be a good entry level option. It’s body is mayof plastic but for that price you can’t go wrong. Don’t expect the same quality as K ultra for example and capacity is really low 15-20g

[@Eklektik190]

I think it's time you get a ZP6, sir!

[@mycoffeeshow111]

I know I know. Where to find money for all the items people request from me to review?

Yes! I recommend it! There is also 1zpresso X and Pietro! Test pietro please!

[@mycoffeeshow111]

@@svistaq2907 I heard some bad things about Pietro. Apparently it is difficult to grind on it and it is slow. I was eyeing Omega X but bloody expensive.

I only have C3 , not pro and at some point will compare it with K6 but I would believe K6 to be a winner of that duel.
