An Easy Way to Make Good Coffee | Nick Delgadillo

Nope. Hot, dry heat is the idea for roasting. Baking and roasting are the same method, just applied to different items. Not sure where you're getting the fat idea at all, except that, of course, a nice roast has a nice bit of fat.

I'm the only one at my house that drinks coffee, so I roast on a small scale. I use a late 80's era popcorn air popper and I can roast three or four days worth of coffee in 15- 20 mins...

But roast potatoes are not the same as baked potatoes! I'm even more confused now.

Roasted potatoes are pieces of potatoes. Baked potatoes are whole potatoes. English is an odd language, but useful.

It is more correct to refer to baked potatoes as roasted, but "baked potato" is a common use. The distinction between baked and roasted is supposed to hinge on changes to final form at the end (dough --> cookie vs potato, beef), but baked is the same method as roasting : relatively high dry heat. Some phrases get slotted different ways by patterns of use. How often do you hear "wreaked" these days without it being tied to "havoc" or less commonly "vengeance"? Read literature and you'll find different patterns.

The grinder is a Bodum Bistro burr grinder. The stove is an Imperial commercial stove with double ovens and 26" griddle. It's badass and 100% the reason we looked at this house when we were shopping.

I light the burners manually because it's designed to have the pilots burning constantly.

Thoughts on Bialetti. I find pour over takes to much patience at 5:45 am.

The Bialetti is an even bigger pain in the ass. Too much trouble to clean for my taste, but I like using it.

Is it Nick who did\does BJJ? If so he's like a bigger version of me in every way - larger, stronger, more skillful (everyone is), and way more diligent in his coffee making!

Forget the coffee. Let’s talk about that range/oven. ‘Cuz dang!

Helpful video Nick. Thanks!

I know! envious of the griddle.

[Eric Schmidt]

Thanks. Like the bodum bistro grinder. A friend of mine who used to work at Sweet Maria's turned me on to the behmor and the clever dripper, so that's what I use. Gonna try that hario

A good time hack for the bialetti, boil your water first in a pot, then pour it into the bottom of the bialetti. It wont 'cook' the coffee and it makes it a little faster. I think it tastes better myself. It's about 5-10 minutes faster then making it the normal way.
