Watching from the Philippines

[@KimLechelle]

I am loving the coffee bar and all the cute accessories. Music is always on point. I can journal and chill while listening. lol

[@marcomorosino6081]

You guys are coffee pros !! Here in Italy we are traditionally obsessed with espresso coffee but in our kitchens we mostly only use moka machine or Nespresso machine with various coffee brand pods. Cappuccino or other types are commonly only to be consumed at the local bars. I enjoyed watching 👍Oh and I haven't seen a grinder since the death of my grand parents, at that time it was only hand coffee grinder.

[@nataliemariya2855]

by hand is the best

[@kimmyestrada2799]

I love this vlog! this is the equivalent of Sam's vlog about her CHANEL's hehe. Happy for Victor to have his own little nook.

[@ani9603]

The Aderia retro tumbler has my heart!!❤❤ And those babyccino cups!! This is definitely a cabinet of joy! Love this video. It's definitely educational and FUN!🎉🎉 Thanks guys.🩷🌸

Wow! This is incredible. Nicely done!!

[@JY-ft6ui]

Indeed a very well organized coffee bar, loving all the details in the video.👍

[@Cutchan88]

So nice! I could see you guys going crazy over the coffee in aus :)

[@user-rw3or4if2v]

Hi Sam and Victor, thank you for sharing your home cafe bar, loved it, and I feel so inspired to learn more about the coffee world, it is almost a ritual behind a cup of coffee, amazing! A quick tip from a plant lover: When the weather is more humid try to not water your plant as you usually do since it seems like the plant is overwatered, instead try to water it only when you notice the soil getting dry. Now, for growth and for the dying leaves a trim may be very useful. Great videos, greetings from Bogotá, Colombia

[@SamandVictor]

Ah ok- I haven’t watered it in 2 weeks though! Gonna go to the plant nursery for the second time to ask lol.. it really worries me XD

[@user-rw3or4if2v]

@@SamandVictor Let me know how that goes, I am also worried 🤣 Go plantie, you can do it x)

[@LisasCoin]

Love the tour, thanks😊☕

[@millicentliu4750]

Thanks for Victor's sharing. I would like to visit your cafe in person😂. By the way, I really enjoy this vibe.🎉 I look forward to Sam's sharing of her bags, outfits, etc.😊

[@stacyng7692]

Thanks for the home cafe tour, i really enjoyed it. Your coffee machine and tools are really cool. Loving some of the cups too. It did makes me want to set up one my house too 😅.

[@lidalovelove]

Thank you for this video! Got big doze of inspiration. Sending love and gratitude from Vladivostok, Russia.

[@leestoughton2312]

thank you for letting me visit exciting places with you. I just found your channel a bit ago and now watch for you. Love it

[@SamandVictor]

Thank you!!

[@devanshusharma4143]

I am obsessed with your channel! Been binging your content for the past week, great work! Would love to know about your backstory though, do you guys have a video on that?

[@TheYoyoma3]

Very nice video Victor, my wife just got me the micra and I’m loving it. Like a coffee dream come true ❤

[@cherylzzz4139]

hhhhh love the magic trick! It's sooooooo nice to watch this beautiful vlog on a tough Monday!

[@SamandVictor]

He giggles every time he watches that clip 🙄

[@vicklet6253]

Thank you for the coffee tour. It’s such a little cozy area in your apartment and very well-maintained and stocked.

[@SamandVictor]

Thank you!

[@richanegi7231]

Thanks for the recommendation. I went to the store, it was lovely. Bought some bowls. Whenever I eat in them, they remind me of HK

[@nasamanithorne2600]

Enjoyed this video, I was quite curious as to your massive calendar, now I know. I am getting adventurous with coffee these days thanks to you both

[@SamandVictor]

Been getting quite a few questions about it so thought we would roll it in here!

[@dianebaker5243]

Lovely video both.🥰🥰 Coffee lovers 🥰🥰

[@r-cdmx]

ASMR vibes. Niiiice. ✨

[@suettsui3934]

Thank you and see you next week. 😊

[@nisechigga]

Why isit so enjoying to watch 😅 but this coffee bar really great !

[@LuxuryCarsSeoul]

Great respect to you all from SEOUL! H.K is my second home and it’s always a joy to watch your channel. Being a KZbinr myself, I realized how hard it is to make such a high-quality video. Should you plan to visit Korea and/or need any help, I’d be more than happy to provide any assistance. Thank you.

[@SamandVictor]

Thank you so much!! We miss Seoul a lot. Just came back from Jeju too 🙌🏻 and thanks for the offer!

[@aRVeesBlog]

thanks for the tour

[@Normanabutler1]

It's the first time I have noticed that 'Espresso Yourself' print! It is so cool! ❤

[@SamandVictor]

Yes! We created that photo during lockdown periods and now it’s an official print in our shop at theaptstudios.com 🎉

[@keigisa]

I feel like since following you both I have been (unintentionally) inspired to drink more coffee haha

[@tangt4860]

Fantastic coffee bar ASMR actually moaned it was too short. Thanks to Victor's mention for maintenance, having 2nd thoughts about Philips Baristina just launched last week. Tip : Hopefully they will send you a set to try out.

[@moonlightnoire]

Ah yes, another store to send my boyfriend to when he visits Hong Kong 😆 I've been trying to find a tea cup that matches the bowls my grandmother had while I was growing up. I saw similar designs when you showed the Halfway Museum in an older video. One day they will be added to my collection 😅

[@ExpatNatt]

Love it when you post a new vid! Love from Shanghai!❤

[@SamandVictor]

Yay! Thank you! It’s been a while since we visited Shanghai! 🫶🏻

[@ExpatNatt]

@@SamandVictor you should definitely pop back! There’s cute new cafes and spots popping up all the time ❤️

[@yesyesoopoo7066]

this became my Monday habit.🥰

[@SamandVictor]

Glad we can be part of your routine ☺️

[@juliesemczyszyn5015]

You really love your coffee. I have one strong espresso every morning and that's it. Was getting heart palpitations in the past when I drank more. Enjoy. Just don't overdo it. ❤

[@katec.6530]

I Love it. Enjoying my overly priced latte as I watch. Would love to have this setup in my home, but my housemates... one doesn't like coffee or tea (IKR) and the other is not choosey when it comes to her coffee, whatever K-cup we have on hand (sadness). Thank you for all the wonderful videos.

[@claudial1614]

Haha your face when you pour the coffee beans ‘over us’ 😆

[@popneo2007]

日本から見てます。素晴らしいビデオに感心します。

[@SamandVictor]

Did you see our Japanese coffee bean stash? 😅 we love it! Miss Japan too

[@izyza5251]

Just when you think the day is over :) ❤ from rainy Amsterdam!

[@SamandVictor]

Hope it gets sunny soon! Thanks for tuning in early 🥰🙌🏻

[@SHIBASANAKE_]

now I want a coffee from Victor! :D

[@Nami-ww8ns]

Bonjour, Je vous suis depuis peu et j’aime beaucoup ce que vous faites. Continuez comme cela.

[@r-cdmx]

Great shirt, Victor. 🤌🏽✨

[@nika4short111]

love

[@jillianvestil8099]

You guys do this aesthetic so so well!! It's very natural 😊 also...what brand is your LP? The wood finishing looks very nice.

[@gillc2654]

that magic trick got me 😂😂

[@aslikargi4605]

the magic trick !!!:D

[@docizzy7917]

Being a KZbinr sounds like a lot of effort to me. You have to keep up with trends and look cool. I personally like to make the money I need elsewhere and buy what ever I want and not to worry about other people. That being said I do enjoy your videos lol

[@miku4936]

I'm sure that if you really put your mind to it, you'll be able to take care of your plants easily. Things take time, and we're humans so there's nothing we cannot learn 💗🙌🏻

[@serinakhor2727]

Not surprised both of you will own a cozy coffee shop one day!😂😊❤

[@_corstiaan]

Satisfying to watch, makes me wanna pour a cup at 02:03AM ;)

[@Normanabutler1]

I’ve got my coffee! 😊 Raining in London so let’s have some fun elsewhere…..

[@SamandVictor]

Wow you’re quick 🎉 hope the weather gets better soon!

[@marce277554]

Gracias Victor. Amo el café, ojalá conozcas el café Mexicano 😊

[@pentagon5083]

What a set up

[@DDadoma]

Love your homecafe! 💗 What size is the light pink loveramics cups?

[@gundare733]

Perfect timing! Looked for inspiration on how to improve the setup after speaking with the guys at Koffee Mameya about what gear is needed at home earlier today.

[@SamandVictor]

Ooooh the Tokyo branch? They’re experts. Still missing the bag of beans we got from them a few months earlier 😂

[@gundare733]

@@SamandVictor Exactly! Stood in line for about an hour at the one in Harajuku close to Coffee Wrights and it was worth it and super professional - We learned about them from your videos and mentioned you both when they asked where we knew about their shop from! Hope you both get the chance to go back soon to get those beans 💪

[@665Iron]

Hi all, I just wanted to say I love your passion for coffee and the entire desk you built for it. Unfortunately I decided to stop drinking coffee. It made me anxious and I ended up more tired by the end of days, so yeah, not for me anymore so I can't screw up my circulatlry system.

[@ajgalosmo8510]

11:41 We have the same cups!!! 😂

[@SamandVictor]

Retro Coffee cups! 🎉

[@Fragilisticexpialidocious818]

Love your gadgets, only using automatic machine myself😅

[@user-fm2gb8bb2n]

Waow!?What amazing talking from Jenniffer!I like Jenni;She is so great.

[@nukmanjais351]

sostrene grene sells a set of stained short glass straws on their website (if you’re outside of Europe) AND if you’re still on the hunt of short straws 😅

[@kymt0709]

thanks for sharing your coffee set up, love the video! btw, how long do you normally store the unopened coffee beans for? I love trying out different brands of coffee beans as well but always worried they won't taste as good if theyre not used within a month of their roasted date :/

[@Its.birdperson]

Tip for your plant: cut the dead leaves off. This will ensure all the energy of the plant goes to all the leaves that are doing well or new :-)

[@netflowcybercafe5129]

about time

[@SamandVictor]

Haha 😂 thanks for tuning in early!

[@jennasabraart]

Here patiently waiting for Sam and Victor cafe to open 😗☕️

[@SlockSounds]

Please do a full home tour!!!

[@sabrinachoi382]

Hello! Such a nice video :) Just wanted to ask where you got the transparent storage dividers in your tea cabinet (around 17:04), thank you!!

[@mrchrstn]

Watching here from PH

[@tinydreamerrr]

Can you share your job/how you can afford to travel and any tips to prepare before a trip? Your lifestyle is my dream 🥹

[@beebeebee05]

The most random 2 Green Stanley's in the mix is of all the pieces 😂😂

[@r-cdmx]

🙌🏽✨

[@stellawong3422]

I do love the vibe of your video 🎀 btw, may I know if you storage that much bags of coffee beans, do you still use it even the "Best Before" already expired? because I found the "best before" period is really short for coffee beans.... like 2-3 weeks... and also, where did you get that spoon for coffee beans? :)

[@SamandVictor]

Yes I do! I put them in the vacuum sealed canisters after opening a fresh bag of beans 🫶🏻

[@lsamoa]

This is so aspirational. And I don't even drink coffee!

[@KahnJi]

Updated apartment tour pleaseeee ❤

[@OlaBelinda]

Can never say no to a new cup😂 Have a nice week ahead guys!

[@potatotv2310]

Juan Marcel & Rhylan mentioned you in their Tokyo vlog!

[@marinarizova]

It would be really nice to have a little counter space to actually perform the coffee making presentation. Most of us pile up all the gadgets and then there is literally zero space where to even lean the portafilter. 😂

[@user-zt5rw5ky7c]

💝💝

[@ebboy5]

Absolutely LOVE your videos! You folks are impressive mass consumers. But let me ask you this.... where do you put everything? Your closets must be busting at the seams! ;)

[@levanymalka]

Amazing video... Weird question but for me you're queen and king of japan. Do you have any recommendations for nail salon in Tokyo?

[@SamandVictor]

Haha “king and queen” Sam says she wanted to try this place some time called “Nail Sucre” look it up 🎉

[@joisisonvlogs7581]

Can you tell me where do you exacly bought the giant calendar in tokyo??

[@AgnesPeii]

Please consider visiting Malaysia for a wider selection of aesthetic dinnerware and good cafes too😬❤️🇲🇾 *Yat Hang Trading @ Chinatown, Malaysia + Niko Neko Matcha Cafe (same row)

[@alisonhuang3499]

Hi what record player do you guys use? And is it hooked up to another sound system?

[@filausopoako]

that's a fancy home coffee... looks better than the shop barrista

[@wc4808]

Great vid!! how much is the annual servicing for the la marzocco machine?

[@daxharper7170]

$200 - $300 if i remember correctly

[@SamandVictor]

Just for him to do a site visit HKD 700 and then depends if he needs to change parts, that might be another HKD 1000

[@alannahtaylor5957]

Do you find your fellow canisters work well? I constantly pull mine out of the cupboard to find they’ve like “unvacuumed”. It’s so frustrating!

[@jamesandciri]

you guys are inspiring my girlfriend and i to start making videos, do you have any general tips?

[@SamandVictor]

Just shoot on your phone and upgrade gear slowly until you establish rhythm, aesthetic and posting sched!

[@AlexFrenchWoman]

It's lovely! Your cups are stunning. I'll be honest though, I don't get coffee bars in living rooms. Isn't it far from your kitchen? Everything is scattered and, throughout time, the surfaces end up all marked.

[@AlexFrenchWoman]

The shelf addition as well is 🤩

[@mileskane100]

Hey man, just wanted to get your take from one coffee nerd to another. The WDT tool, seems to me to have little to no purpose, an even tamp distributes the grinds and undoes anything the WDT does anyway? Would be happy to know if I'm missing something. TIA greetings from HK
