Measuring Brew Water Properties

This post describes some available tools for measuring water properties relevant to coffee and presents ways and a web tool to hack aquarium kits for a better precision.

A Tool and Videos for Crafting Custom Brew Water

In this post, I present a new tool to create custom brew water recipes, which can be built from any soft water rather than distilled water.

I'm happy to announce I have teamed up with @flairespressomaker and @weberworkshops for a nice giveaway this week; you can win a Flair 58 + Weber Workshops Unifilter along with my book :) follow the link in my bio to enter the giveaway !
I just published a new blog post on my Patreon (link in bio) about particle size distributions, with a discussion of how burr spacing, rpm, burr geometry affects them, and how to characterize different styles of particle size distributions. This is one of my most data heavy posts so far, thanks a ton to @weberworkshops for sharing their data.
I just posted a new blog post on my Patreon (link in bio) about my updated understanding of the mechanisms that I believe cause astringency in coffee, with hints about avenues we might use to reduce it. The post is immediately available on Patreon and will become publicly available in about 2 weeks !
@pullandpourcoffee created yet another awesome visual to convey some of my recent understandings of espresso physics ! I think this phenomenon has often been misconstrued as puck erosion or degradation, whereas this will happen in even the most well behaved espresso shots !
I will be teaching my second class on the physics of coffee during WOC Milan this summer ! The class will be on June 24, 8-11 AM in a beautiful room owned by @bwtglobal.
