Franco - Copenhagen | Home Coffee Brewing with April #33

This week, we’re bringing you the latest video from a series that we call Home Coffee Brewing with April. We join Franco in his bright Copenhagen kitchen to brew some filter coffee together.

We believe that innovation in coffee brewing starts at home, and that some of the most special and meaningful interactions with coffee can take place within your own kitchen.

As we are frequently travelling visiting our international partners, we decided to introduce this format as a way to interact with you on a different level whilst maintaining the frequency of our videos.

In this video, Franco brews a Sudan Rume from Los Pirineos in El Salvador. This lot was black honey processed and roasted by local roasters Prolog. Franco uses a Plastic April Brewer, April Paper Filters and a Wilfa Pouring Kettle. We have featured many different styles of grinders on this channel during this series, this time around showing how Franco uses a blade grinder and his own technique to grind the coffee for his pour over. He kindly shares his techniques and motivations with us whilst discussing his approach to coffee at home.

We hope you enjoy this episode and we look forward to bringing you 2 more episodes from here in Copenhagen, before we head off to Chicago for the next chapter of the series.

We're always interested in hearing what topics you're most curious to hear us discuss, and Patreon is a great way of reaching out to us if you would like to make a request.

We welcome your thoughts and feelings on the topics raised in this week's video, as well as other ideas you would like to see us discuss in the future. We really appreciate your feedback and support.

I loved this episode, it's great to see how people brew coffee and it's important that you can enjoy it without having all the fanciest of coffee gadgets in the world

It’s fun to see how people go through different processes when brewing coffee. I used to pay very close attention to the timer. Lately, however i’ve been brewing based more on visuals. It makes it a little difficult to be consistent, but I seem to enjoy it more.

Cool to see someone use a blade grinder. Lance Hedrick was asking people in his Patreon about this, and how we could use blade grinders to make coffee more accessible. Again, love to see a home brewers approach and intentionally with different aspects of coffee brewing.

Nice to see someone using a blade grinder. I still occasionally use my Krups 75 blade grinder from the 90’s just to see what I can get out of it. Really enjoy these videos

So coffee channels are just straight up buying subscribers now??
No way you have 214k followers and videos get 5k views and 163 likes.... this is sad coming from a brand I respect
