I’m wondering if we should start a sticky post which contains everyone’s collection of Bean/Grinder+Setting/Brew method information as a reference. It’s always good to have a nice starting point.

I will update as comments come up.

    For my V60 pourovers I mostly set my Encore to 16, sometimes varying by +/- 2 for different beans at different ages.

    I think this is neat idea, but some days I’ll just vary it based on what I’m feeling, nevermind any fixed variable, so I personally just like knowing the starting point to play with for different grinders/brew methods.

      I just ordered the V60 number 2 kit in brown. Should be here this week. I’m excited to take a try at pour over at home.

        Hope you enjoy! It’s a very satisfying way to make coffee, even on those days where something doesn’t taste quite right.
