I absolutely appreciate the care and time LTT allowed for Tim to explain his coffee hobby, especially the editors' notes explaining stuff when Tim mentions something that isn't common knowledge. A lot of the difficulty of getting into a hobby is not having the prior knowledge to talk about it -- it's overwhelming to hear someone talk about something you don't know anything about -- but Tim explained the basics really clearly and concisely, and the editors supported him on everything that might be confusing to a casual viewer. It's not what I expected from a tech channel, but I appreciate the time and care LTT put into it!

Understanding how it tastes, comparing flavors, and understanding how different things effect the taste so we could change it to suit our personal preferences. I would totally watch more videos about brewing if he was the host. Also, I now know the importance of quality equipment and why it's better. Truly enlightening and I would love to see more.

Wasn't expecting a coffee related segment on LTT. It was explained very well, without getting over complicated! As someone who brews their own pour overs at home as a hobby, it's always nice to see it getting more exposure to a wider audience. More people should know how interesting coffee can be! And props to all the presenters showing off their cool stuff. I love hearing people talk about the things they're passionate about!!

reaally curious which of the steps/tools/procedures he mentioned actually cause a recognizable taste difference that he could spot at a blind tasting.

[@elchad0]

This video has to have been deliberately conceived as a series of back door pilots bundled together #GoLTT

[@johnmarklowry]

@@RandomUser2401 As with anything else, what you can spot in a blind tasting will depend on how sensitive your taste is and how familiar you are with coffee in general. A relatively new coffee drinker might not be able to distinguish all of these, but I'd assume someone who's brewing a V60 every morning and is into coffee as a hobby could distinguish quite a few of these factors. A list in order of appearance: coffee sourced from a local 3rd wave roaster, grinding the coffee fresh right before brewing, a good grinder with consistent grind size output, using precise ratios and measuring in grams for accuracy, type of filter used and speed that the filter allows water to pass through, pour technique that allows for bloom time. That's the big stuff, but there will also be some minor things like washing the filter beforehand to remove paper taste, etc. You'd be surprised what can be detected through triangle tasting, and if you're curious, I can almost guarantee that he's been watching another KZbinr who explains all of this in extensive detail - James Hoffmann.

Ok Linus, you have struck gold here, becuase it doesnt matter what was brought to showcase, but the passion in each topic being shared is contagious. Congrats.

[@PaladinofRealm]

Tim is super good at presenting and being educational while explaining coffee. Very cool

[@MaxApocalypticGaming]

Holy shit, Tanner is amazing. If this becomes a series, he needs to come back.

Hell, he needs to present on a regular basis.

[@tunezjunkie87]

I have always loved how y'all let the staff's personalities shine. You can almost tell who edited the videos by their styles. The different hosts have different specialties, so you get slightly differing POVs of different tech. And like this, we get a peak behind the curtain at the real people behind LMG and their special interests, not just the figureheads on the videos. This channel makes everything you talk about so relatable, and I freaking love it.

Tim's coffee segment was so interesting! It was very informational and fun to hear him explain about something that he's very passionate about

[@saashR]

I have to say at first I was quite disinterested in the coffee part but the passion with which Tim delievered it made me love the part and I enjoyed his honesty when he talked about his growth as a person from gatekeeping to letting everyone just enjoy what they like. awesome personality!

Have been watching LTT as a meal companion for a long time. Learning techie stuff, enjoying the content and getting sound advice for my buyings. Never had I thought I’ll be willing to get into coffee brewing culture from HERE. 😂

More of this please. There's nothing I enjoy more than listening to someone talk freely about something they are truly passionate about.

I really love watching people talk about things that they genuinely care about. It's one thing to have a hobby that you dink around with, but the true care and expertise that some put in is super inspiring.

I love the dedication they all have and the time they give to their personal interests, especially with something as simple yet meaningful as a coffee routine.

As a coffee nerd with as many, or maybe even more coffee stuff, I feel seen! Loved the segment! He's so well spoken and articulate, while keeping everything easy to understand to the masses. I was the same, from not really drinking coffee and didn't really care, to the other end of the spectrum. Love that LTT is showing off different things of the staff! Keep it coming!

[@tristanxxxx]

Wow, Tim's segment was amazing. I haven't been a coffee drinker for years (and it was always just your standard Folgers or whatever was the first thing I saw on the grocery store shelf), but I found myself totally absorbed in his every word. Learned a tonne about coffee. Didn't think I'd be that interested in the subject, but his presentation was captivating. Thank you for sharing all of that!

I’m glad he took half the video, it allowed him to fully explain every part of the process and he presented it very well

I would never have thought that the most enjoyable part of an LTT video would turn out to be a coffee-making tutorial :) Thanks! As someone who only drinks awful, instant coffee in a rush it was fascinating! :)

I loved this upload. Not only get to see the real side of people but also their passions which im sure they love to share. Id be down for more of these types of videos! That dude with the coffee needs his own channel lol.

[@chilio94]

Tims' coffee segment was pretty interesting and I rarely drink coffee, I never realized how complex coffee could be down to how to brew it and how the cup can affect the taste. Tim should make his own KZbin channel and call it Coffee Tech Tips!

[@-Juniperiia]

You should check out James Hofmann's channel. He was a barista world champion a good decade or so ago and now he shares his love for everything coffee with the world.

[@s.i.m.c.a]

taste is quite subjective thing...

[@sporemaster97]

@@s.i.m.c.a Yes, but explaining the different techniques and such, and how they effect the coffee's taste gives you the ability to make coffee to your *own* preference. If you don't understand why it tastes like that, you won't be able to adjust and make something you like more. Taste is subjective, you're not wrong, but it's completely irrelevant to the topic at hand. I can make a video showing how to make Chicken Parm, and there's absolutely nothing that would stop people watching it from doing something differently than I did, or using different ingredients they like over what I chose. Like swapping the brand of sauce used for one that they prefer. Food and drink tutorials are more of a loose guide as to what to expect. If you follow it to a T without any of your own input, it probably won't taste how *you* want, nor expect.

[@slartibartfast2649]

Do whatever suits you, but I find all the equipment pretentious. Countries with coffee as one of the centres of their culinary culture, such as Turkey and Italy, do not bother with rubbish about angles of different filters and weighing to the 0.1g. Get a macchinetta. Forget the rest of that bullshit. Winetasters would swirl it around their mouth becuase it "technically gives better aeration of the fluid which releases more flavour" or equivalent babble. You would look like an uncultured tool if you did that on a day-to-day basis. If you get a beautiful wine, the purpose is to enjoy it, not dissect it.

I got really excited about the Zune segment. Such a great player. Plus their subscription model was unlimited music for $10 a month and you could keep 10 songs for life each month (something like that?). It was wild and sad to see people never gave it a chance.

[@scottcol23]

Yeah, It was $15 a month, and getting to keep 10 songs reduced the price of the subscription to a mere $5 since the price of an mp3 at the time was $1 a song. It was a great feature on a mediocre device. I had the original Creative Nomad Jukebox 6gb mp3 player in 2000 and upgraded to the ZUNE when it launched in 2006 just for the service and smaller footprint. The Creative Jukebox was the size of a diskman and had abysmal battery life. At the time I worked for a ski resort full time and having an MP3 player was so useful. I went to the iPhone in 2007 so the zune went back in its box where it sits today.

[@MattMusky]

Windows Phone dragged Zune with it (though it was rebranded to Groove which I'm sure didn't help). Loved both, but Windows Phone was Zune/Groove's last hope to survive.
