Chestnut C2S

If you’re only doing AP, I have the Timemore Chestnut C2s. It’s around $80 and does a great job. Only had it about a month so can’t comment on longevity, but I read a lot of reviews before buying anything and the reviews were great. I just use a small digital scale I got on Amazon for general cookin

I started with the Timemore C2s and honestly really liked it. My two complaints were the internal adjustment and non-folding crank handle, but those were nitpicky and the handle I didn’t really notice it until I upgraded to the 1Zpresso J-Ultra.

I’m assuming it’s a light roast and speaking from personal experience Fermented coffees are way too intense and muddled if I don’t rest them that long. There is no separation of flavors I’ve seen people recommend resting them for as long as two months on the r/pourover sub and in my experience that

This is one of my recent favourites. I prefer brewing it using pourover methods(v60 mostly) and you can actually taste the notes. Grinder: Timemore C2S. Experimented between 16,17,18 clicks and loved it best at 18.
