Re: Neru/sock pourover thread
I wash it in Cafetto EVO when it gets bad. It seems to be the goods. I rinse it in hot water right away, sometimes boil is if its bad, then fridge it in a zip lock bag. I washed it with detergent once and NEVER again.... unless you like the taste of soap in your coffee. Theres a lot of comments around warning against this. Oxy clean seems to be the goods though too.

Re: Neru/sock pourover thread
I rinse immediately with hot water then soak in Oxy clean for 30-60 minutes then rinse in hot, pat dry firmly and store in fridge (stays white).
22gms coffee to 300ml, let bloom for 30 seconds then slow pour about 1 minute then another 20-30 to filter through. I will be adjusting grind to slow the brew process a bit after watching James Hoffman recommending 4 mins total brew process time with Chemex.
Just keep experimenting as you are and youll hit your own sweet spot for each SO etc.

Re: Neru/sock pourover thread
Give it a rinse in caffetto every so often. I guess you could put it in the wash with whites?

Re: Neru/sock pourover thread
im finding it hard to go past around 240mls cos the coffee starts getting too weak afterwards. This is with the 1-2cup brewer and roughly 20grams of coffee. Been also letting it bloom/infuse at the start for abt 10-20s now, it helps alot with the flow imo
been playing around with the grind lately as well ! im finding that i am grinding coarser on brighter fruitier beans to get the sweetness and going coarser on the darker beans to get the body
how are u storing ur sock ? im just giving it a good wrinse and pouring boiling water over it but its already beginning to stain

Mine arrived this week and it really is a clean cup. I took Yeezas model and actually ground quite course and the whole thing was very impressive. I would have to say this is my fav method at present. I get 300ml from the smaller sock and its probably close to max IMO with the bloom effect at the start coming up quite high.
Enjoy

Neru/sock pourover thread
i got mine today from jack at sorrentina! along with my replacement parts for my syphon filter !
brewed a quick cup with it using vella neros designer blend on a finer than drip grind. Used a longnecked teapot with boiling water to pour and followed yeezas tutorial !
the result?
Its good
Much cleaner than the plunger with no sediment and all the sweet fruity tastes come out well!
brewed a second cup and it wasnt too good cos i overextracted the coffee. I think i might have been overly optimistic on being able to make a full 2 cups with the sock.
The first was closer to 1 1/3 cups, But i will prolly just cut it short and dose the same till i get it perfectly right. better safe than sorry i guess !
anyone else played with one yet ? i cant wait to try out some more beans on this thing !Tags: None
