Yep, makes a damn fine cup of coffee
I leave mine to brew for about 3-4 mins then a slow press.
I find it makes a great strong cup of coffee. I do also have the Fellow Prisma attachment which comes with a metal filter.
I find it better with medium to dark roasts than light roasts but that’s my taste in general.

Been using one for 7-8 years now. I really like it, and the value proposition is fantastic imho. I tend to do the brewing upside down, so it can be as long as I like, and then just flip it to plunge.
Also, if you travel a lot, it makes for a very portable coffee setup.

Thanks gents. I will try one and report back.
I just prefer a V60 for the clarity. I now use a Switch, which allows a combination of percolation and immersion. Both are straight into the dishwasher afterwards, no hassle cleanup.

That Black&White looks fucking terrifying

How close it is to funky?
Let’s hope it’s drinkable as it’s a 340g bag 
Juicy red fruits pulled me in.

It’s just me, nearly everything at Black&White scares me

Have had a few now and they have been alright, but I went for the less funky ones.
Just looked at sigma and they currently appear to be sold out of almost all coffees 
I saw that, wondered if the website was just a bit fucked.

Did you see the experimental coffee offer from Gustatory? I also went for that.
Strange thing with all these three I’ve bought is the tasting notes: winey, white sangria and liqueur - at a time when I’ve decided alcohol is not for me.
All-in on coffee these last few days.
Been drinking the Black & White and feel it was roasted a bit too long for my liking. Still decent but not making me look at their other offerings.
Today though, I changed over from the Blue Bottle dripper to my V60 style with the Lily drip and found a much clearer cup.
Maybe the grind setting I settled on just works better with these beans in this dripper but I’ve got no idea how this happens now. I can’t seem too measure it.
So I tried this at the most course setting on my grinder but it drew down in 2m 45s. Tasted a bit meh without much flavour. Will try another cup later before my shift a few clicks less course.
In the video they use a comandante grinder at 45 clicks, whatever that translates too I don’t know.
Did you see the grounds in the video? They were fucking massive!
Yeah mine aren’t as big but it flows too quickly for his timings, either way dropped it down a few clicks and it was better and time went up 20s. Will go finer again tomorrow when I get up and see how it goes.
Edit: this is all with a melodrip, so might try it without.
I just tried it. Grinder set to max (Fellow Ode 2), 22.5g coffee (end of bag), so 10 pours of 33.3g so I could do the maths. Finished at 3.20, so the timing seems ok. I didn’t use the Melodrip - I think it needs the agitation to slow it down.
It’s an interesting coffee. I normally like a very fast brew with a nice acidic zing and fruitiness, this is much less acidic, and has loads of body. I’m now confused, and don’t know which I prefer!
Did just try it direct pour on the max setting on mine. Took the time to 3m and seemed to work better. So not sure if it goes course enough for this. Might get my niche down and give that a try.
Similar to yourself it’s different and nice, but I need to have a few cups to get used to it/form a better opinion.
