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.

Speckled Ax - Early Bird	Encore ESP	20	Aeropress 11g - 200ml
Speckled Ax - Bird Dog Espresso	Encore ESP	23	Aeropress 11g - 200ml
Speckled Ax - Early Bird	Encore ESP	21	V60 15g - 280ml
Light Roast	Fellow Opus	4.5	Moka Pot

I found this site as well for a good point of reference for starting my V60 journey: Coffee Grind Chart

Formatting of link was off. I was going to recommend the exact same site

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.
