00:08
hey this is bear from porter keeper
00:10
today i'm going to do a v60 drip
00:12
comparison between the nish
00:14
zero and the turin grinder
00:17
i'm not going to do a blind test because
00:19
i don't have two v60 funnels and i
00:21
wanted to make them as similar as
00:23
possible so i'm going to brew one we're
00:24
going to
00:25
graph it on a little coffee graph that i
00:29
use
00:30
and i'll show you the comparisons at the
00:32
end
00:33
i've already pre-ra weighed 25 grams
00:36
of beans it says ethiopian it makes
00:39
really good
00:40
espresso as well so if you're looking
00:41
for a good espresso bean this thing's
00:43
pretty solid
00:45
but i've been enjoying it for aeropress
00:48
and v60
00:49
so we're going to start with the niche
00:52
and i've already pre-weighed 25 grams
00:56
lost one i wish that funnel was bigger
00:59
on the niche i have it on
01:01
setting about 35 that's where i've been
01:04
running it and been really happy with
01:06
the v60
01:07
i know everyone's going to be different
01:09
and have a different opinion
01:10
the turn i'm running on about 65 and
01:13
that's
01:14
really what i feel as a
01:17
apples to apples comparisons for this
01:26
[Applause]
01:31
okay take a little break the niche kind
01:33
of a slow grinder
01:35
ground out 25 grams of beans
01:40
there's some static
01:43
it's mostly just the chaff and
01:47
we're gonna make our v60
01:50
it's probably better to wet it i don't
01:52
like wetting it personally but
02:00
we're going to do three drops
02:04
and let it bloom
02:19
so i just made a cup on the niche
02:23
on setting 35 let it draw down
02:26
and we're gonna set it aside it's still
02:28
too hot to drink
02:30
it smells like a good cup of coffee hard
02:31
to see
02:34
uh what we're going to do next is we're
02:35
going to use this turn
02:38
and i pre pre-weighed 25 grams
02:52
it's pretty minimal mess but
03:08
if you haven't checked it out yet i'm
03:10
making these turn
03:11
adjustment rings it lines in the front
03:13
and shows you a little bit easier where
03:16
the setting is it has this little bean
03:18
in the front
03:19
i find it really hard to see so i made
03:22
that ring and people
03:23
seem to be liking it
03:27
let's tear this out and i'll probably
03:30
stop the video again so it doesn't get
03:31
too long
03:44
and
03:53
i'm gonna stop it while i brew this
04:01
so a visual comparison between these two
04:03
i thought the
04:04
drawdown on the niche was quite slow
04:07
and it was really muddy the turn the
04:10
drawdown was a little bit more what i'd
04:12
expect from like a flat bur grinder
04:15
and the drawdown
04:19
you didn't have a lot of sludge on the
04:20
outsides meaning that there's less vines
04:22
in it
04:23
and then i thought it was just like a
04:26
much cleaner
04:28
v60 process at least for me so
04:32
i did 15 or 25 grams in each and then i
04:35
did about 300 grams of water i did it in
04:37
three
04:38
drops i let it bloom then i added some
04:41
more and then
04:42
i did the final to bring it to 300 and
04:43
let it draw down
04:45
so that was my method on brewing
04:49
so the first thing that i want to do is
04:51
just do a
04:52
taste test of the niche so bear with me
04:55
for a minute
04:56
this has been cooling for a few minutes
04:58
so should be about right
05:04
actually really good with this ethiopia
05:06
like amazing
05:12
so we're gonna go through this wheel it
05:15
is
05:16
quite sweet we're gonna give it a
05:20
i can't read the numbers we're gonna go
05:22
pretty high on that the sour
05:24
is not sour at all spicy it has quite a
05:28
bit of spice to it
05:30
salty i don't really get that salty but
05:34
it's kind of in the middle
05:35
berry fruit it's kind of in the middle
05:39
it does have like a jammy
05:41
citrus fruit very low stone fruit
05:45
it's there
05:51
yeah it's there chocolate
05:56
it's there it's in the middle caramel
05:58
it's kind of in the middle
05:59
smokey it's fairly smoky
06:03
but not really better
06:06
not better at all
06:09
savory it has quite a bit of savoriness
06:12
to it
06:13
body
06:17
it's fairly full bodied it is not very
06:21
clean i'd say it's
06:23
i mean it's not a bad thing but it is
06:24
not clean
06:27
and the linger finish is quite a bit
06:31
so kind of all over the place
06:33
distribution we're gonna
06:42
i'll show better pictures of these this
06:46
time
06:52
oh i missed one floral
07:00
now
07:02
there's the distribution on the niche so
07:05
very good cup
07:10
okay so let's get over to the turn
07:15
a little bit hot
07:21
this is totally different
07:27
it's pretty sweet
07:32
it's not sour
07:37
it's a little more floral
07:41
quite a bit of spice no salt
07:46
berry fruit really stands out
07:51
really no citrus on this pardon me
07:55
stone fruit we're gonna go kind of in
07:57
the middle chocolate
07:59
actually get a little bit more chocolate
08:01
in this
08:03
i might even go up a little caramel
08:06
middle of the road
08:08
bitter or smoky let's do an order i
08:11
missed one smokey
08:13
not smoky bitter it's really
08:16
not bitter at all savory
08:21
middle-of-the-road body
08:26
hmm probably a little bit less than the
08:28
niche
08:30
clean it is very clean pretty much pull
08:33
our opposite from that one
08:35
and the linger and finish is kind of in
08:38
the middle
08:40
so again let's do all the lines together
08:58
in a way they're kind of similar in
09:01
shape
09:02
but
09:06
well let's give it one more just taste
09:09
test see
09:10
where we're at
09:16
this is very clean very bright i like a
09:19
brighter cup
09:21
cleaner cup when i use my ditty and it's
09:23
just
09:25
so clean the drawdown you could see it
09:27
in the filter there were no fines
09:30
this has the bimodal burger so you have
09:32
quite a bit of fines in it
09:33
and let's give it a taste test
09:41
is this totally different i would say if
09:44
i wanted to give
09:46
a qualitative difference between these
09:49
two
09:50
this is more everyday i think everyone's
09:54
gonna like it
09:55
and it's a little less complex
10:01
this is like an amazing cup of coffee
10:04
this one i think it really brings out
10:07
some of the
10:10
the things that you're not going to get
10:11
out of that bimodal burr
10:14
you're really focusing on the one ground
10:17
ground size that's consistent
10:22
it's good and clean you're getting all
10:23
or nothing here so it's either going to
10:25
be really good or
10:26
maybe not so good i would probably give
10:30
both of these a five star
10:32
cup today it really came through these
10:34
ethiopian beans are
10:36
fantastic it's a light to medium
10:40
washed bean
10:43
no complaints i thought it was going to
10:45
be a little bit more cut and dry on
10:47
which one i would like more
10:49
but yet again at the end of the day
10:51
they're just totally different grinders
10:53
and what you get out of them is really
10:56
your personal opinion
10:58
i still think people are going to like
10:59
this more because i think it's a little
11:01
bit easier to get
11:03
a middle-of-the-road cup of coffee i
11:05
mean it's good
11:07
you don't have to try too hard you just
11:09
make your cup and it's good
11:11
the flat burgers i think they're going
11:12
to make you work for it a little bit
11:13
more
11:14
but i would say that the little bit of
11:17
effort is worth it in the long run
11:20
so let me know what you think down in
11:23
the comments i'm sure
11:24
everyone will have an opinion on what i
11:26
did wrong but
11:28
just leave them down in the comments and
11:30
i'd like to hear from you thanks
11:44
you
