New to specialty coffee, my setup so far
(lemmy.nz)
Picked up an Aeropress and a Comandante C40.
Also pictured is my very cheap kitchen scales, has been accurate enough to measure beans and water.
I know Comandante are expensive, my justification was they are a very well regarded brand and I wanted something I could rely on as I played with different brewing techniques.
Been having a great time, producing some lovely cups, and all cheaper per cup then the Nespresso I was drinking before
I quite enjoy my Timemore Black Mirror Nano. It's definitely not cheap (around 100€) but is much better than any cheap, wildly inaccurate kitchen scale or any cheap, painfully slow dealer's scale.
Tiny footprint so it fits under most machines, 0.1g accuracy, super fast (but has a tendency to settle +-0.2g about 1s after stopping pouring whatever), has a few cool modes like an auto timer for espresso and Aeropress or real time flow rate for pourover. I think you can connect it to a phone too but I've never tried it.
