A place to discuss all things coffee, from an Australian perspective.

Are you a fan of espresso, cold brew, aeropress? Do you try new beans and roasters regularly, or stay with what you know and love?

I generally prefer filter coffee (with a re-usable filter, no oil sucking paper!) or plunger, but currently have only the plunger because of lack of space. A good syphon can also be supurb. I've also started roasting my own beans - I'm definitely a long way from expert, but am getting pretty solid results and am am slowly improving.

I tinker with roasting my own coffee (tend to go on the lighter end, highly recommend a hive roaster).

I then grind it (used to use a hand grinder, but doing that for espresso got somewhat painful after a few years) and use a manual espresso press (cafelat robot) to make the coffee.

If I feel like a milk drink I'll use a bellman stove top steamer to steam the milk.
