Just a heads up to all my fellow coffee heads: if you like espresso, never order iced espresso in Laos.

I've ordered twice now and what I recieve is a white coffee with ice. Those of you who like coffee black, will undertand my pain right now.

I've ordered iced americano a couple of times and all good, but when you fancy an espresso... americano just doesn't hit that spot.


I'm now realizing that I yeeted this cast into the ether without much context. so, here's an overview of what this gadget does for normal well-adjusted people who don't have a coffee lab at home:

* basket preparation
when preparing espresso, you're grinding beans in order to fill a metal cylinder called a basket. your goal is for the coffee grounds to be perfectly distributed such that an equal density is achieved throughout the basket. ideally, you want the resulting espresso to be equally extracted from all of the grounds.

if one area is less dense, then water will naturally flow through the path of least resistance. this is called channeling and means that the grounds in that area will be over-extracted whereas the surrounding areas will be under-extracted. as a result, your coffee will be less balanced and can veer towards bitter or sour, bright or dull, etc.

First time to try vietnamese drip coffee ~ but with less syrup😂 or else they're always putting tons of condensed milk in. 

Taste is so strong for me who love light-roasted bean and fruity flavour. This is like burnt intense 😅
