Thanks for the article link! Would never have thought to search for "bypass brewing".

a weaker v60 without extraction change (lemm.ee)

Let's say I'm brewing perfect v60 cups for my taste and don't want to change the flavor as its not too sour or bitter. However I just want it a bit weaker. What parameters would I change? Could I just add a little water after the brew? If I used less beans or more water during, I'd think it'd mess with the extraction.

Just came in the mail. Ground at setting 3 (somewhat randomly) and did 16g coffee, 50 bloom then 4x50 v60 in 30sec intervals with 105f water. The grind is definitely more consistent than my hand grinder and at this setting was finer than what I've been grinding at for sometime. What stands out in this first cup is the great mouthfeel. But taste is too strong, muddled and not sweet enough. Looking forward to experimenting. Next time I'll go a bit coarser and see what happens. The grinder itself is a work of art with excellent build quality.

Just ordered my first electric grinder yesterday. Got an ode v1 refurbished for like $150 from fellow and free shipping. Seems like a decent deal and can always upgrade the burrs later if I'm itching for more. Will let you know how it compares to my usual hand grinder and v60.
