It honestly feels like a wizard is telling me their secrets
😈😈😈
True!
This is our second K-Classic. We had our first one for many years, so when we had to replace it, we wanted nothing else but this exact th-cam.com/users/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf model. We use it for about three people everyday in the morning. The taste and quick brew is one of the reasons we like it so much. There are so many choices of brands of coffee that we would grab what was on sale and test the different brands from there. I would definitely recommend trying different brands of coffee to find the ones you like the most because there are brands that quite frankly taste horrible.
The Fellow Atmos canister, due to its vacuum will pull CO2 out of the coffee beans and other absorbed/dissolved gasses within the beans. This is normal. It happens with most negative pressure food storage containers but is more noticeable on the non-displacement containers
And, with coffee beans, the CO2 offgassing is a well-enough known phenomenon that coffee bags in the retail market have a special one-way valve on them, specifically to allow that offgassing to occur without rupturing the bags.
@@michaelarighi5268 I was just about to say this! James Hoffmann addressed it in his comparison of coffee containers.
I thought it was fresh beans off-gassing which releases the vacuum. But I tried it with super stale beans I had left out and it still loses the seal within 24 hours... this is with me twisting the pump until I can't twist anymore.
Even if it's beans off-gassing, it makes this product totally useless. It does not hold a seal for more than half a day. It fails at the one job it is designed to do.
AirScape is probably a much better use of your $40.
@@Koofteh The point is *not* actually to make it vacuum; the point is to remove as much oxygen as possible. As the CO2 off-gassing from the coffee won't negatively affect the quality of the beans, it's fine that it loses it's vacuum as long as it does not allow oxygen into the canister.
Jeah James just talked about this in a recent video th-cam.com/video/_Py8JOi3REg/w-d-xo.html
Thank you so much Morgan, Ive been wanting a gift list for my family for coffee, so i stop getting the same bad coffee mugs from everyone.I feel like this has a great selection of gifts and a fun look at what a connoisseur uses on a day to day. Ive got some idea on what I want to get to upgrade my setup
I have the breville bambino, based on your review last year. I love it. I use it multiple times a day, super easy, and very much in my price point and experience level. Thank you for the reviews!
I didn’t know I was interested in coffee until I subscribed to this channel lol. Or that I would have this much guilt when my brewer says descale and I ignore her ;-; just a few times I promise
Perfect timing! I just got a bunch of great ideas of what to get my partner for Christmas. I like that there were a variety of items at different price points so I can save up for the expensive ones but get some of the more affordable options now. Just in time for Christmas.
I'm just starting my research into espresso at home. You're very knowledgeable and easy to learn from. Plus I love your energy and enthusiasm. Shows your passion! Thank you for sharing!
I LOVE the Stormlight Archives by Sanderson! It's one of my favorite book series, and I always get so excited when I see someone else getting into it. Lol I hope you enjoy them too!
This is super high on my list. Currently finishing Dresden Files and Wheel of Time. Where would you put Stormlight in regards to "heaviness/slog" compared to other fantasy series?
@@BarbeqdBrwniez
On a scale of 1-5, strictly in terms of quick readability
If Harry Potter and Eragon are a 1, A Song of Ice and Fire is a 4, and Wheel of Time and Tolkien are a 5, I would say it's about a 3.
@@LarrietDarling that seems like a pretty reasonable scale! Definitely makes me more excited to read it!
You are the best! I’m not a barista, just love coffee and appreciate all your videos!
This is the video I needed! I love talking about this stuff, like the pleasure of a nice mug or cup and pouring things nicely, and this made me really happy. ❤ Thank you for sharing this with us!
also heck yes gonna get that bonavita
you're gonna love the Stormlight Archive, and the audiobooks are incredible
What grinder are you using? Do you like it?
Also, are you planning on upgrading? If so, what are you planning on upgrading to?
Looks like a Rancilio Rocky to me.
I was wondering about a coffee grinder, I need one.
Honestly I use good quality 30cal ammo cans for coffee storage. It keeps in the freshness and looks cool in the meantime.
I also use a 50 cal can for my portable coffee kit if I'm going out for the weekend.
My favorite however is the portable barista kit I made from a 20mm ammo can. I made a fitted insert for it that holds my Fellow ekg, a French press, a milk frothing wond, my 1zpresso KPlus, an aeropress, and a mokapot all security looked in place. It also has storage above for cups, filters, a tiny scale, an even a plastic v60 amongst other things. Through a computer tower carry harness on it and it's ready for a long caffeine filled vacation.
Morgan, I think you’ll really like the Pump-n-Seal for coffee storage. I use mine with mason jars. It has the benefit of creating the strongest vacuum when compared to every vacuum container and FoodSaver type of vacuum sealer.
A... coffee break?
Happy holidays, Morgan. Thanks for the videos.
Loved the video Morgan! I always love seeing your videos and they always make my week better. My mum has recently gifted me a breville barista pro espresso machine and I love it to bits! I'm a aspiring barista at my part time job, I work as a barista and waitress. You have inspired me day to day and have encouraged me to try latte art. I have just mastered my tulips :D.
I feel that its high time someone does a compilation of Morgan sliding in.
I’ve been looking forward to this video forever!!!!!
Your videos are simply awesome, Morgan!
How apropos that this drops the same day I get my shirt! The long sleeve version of the hoody worn in the video. Super excited!
For brewing I love my Aeropress! One suggestion, if you get one ignore the recipe in the manual, it gives a weak and disappointing brew. Instead go to TH-cam. There are a ton of options, something for everyone. I use one that I have tweaked for my taste buds.
Time for more of the loveliest content on TH-cam
I love my bonavita coffee maker. Clearing the ratios to water and coffee that make it the way I like it
I adore the Way of Kings, it was the first one I listened to on Audible so I hope you enjoy that and the rest of the series too!
love that kruve espresso glass!
I'll miss you Morgan but happy that you'll post
That IS the review I've been looking for
yes!!! im reading all of brandon sandersons cosmere and i got in through the stormlight archive books too! i hope you love them!
Awesome exhaustive review! Thanks so much!
P.S. Regarding the ember mug, baking soda (or BarKeepers Friend) will take care of that discoloration easy, and won't damage the ceramic (coating?). Just make sure to not use the abrasive side of your sponge for extra security.
great choice of book, the Stormlight archives series is very good!
Your exhaustive review exhausted me. Now I need a coffee!
I don’t even drink coffe, it gives me too much anxiety and insomnia. (Don’t really andle stimulant really well)
But I just found your chanel and I love your soothing voice and personnality. Can’t stop watching!
If you like the airscape action but with the atmos look, you could check out the evac. It's what I use at home and it looks great and has a VERY similar action to the airscape. I definitely wouldn't use it with large hands though.
You're amazing Morgan 💕
This just shows that Morgan is a tried and true coffee connoisseur! Please restore this relaxing Music soundtrack, I missed it! Love ur vids! Try Japanese coffee jelly with sweet Cream! It is bomb! Also like Trader Joes Coffee Haul, plz try Aldi Coffee Haul!
Oh! the Way of Kings is so gooooood. I've just finished the main Stormlight series and Mistborn series.
Loved seeing all of your cool stuff! Feels like behind the scenes 😂 Also have you ever tried or reviewed nespresso?
Hey, and as this is your last upload before the new year - Happy New Year! May you never get ground down and your tamper never tarnish.
Woah your subscriptions have rocketed recently! Well done 😊
Thank you! TH-cam Shorts is the cause I believe
I seriously enjoy the slide and hello there star wars reference way too much! Lol your content is awesome, but I definitely look forward to jus the silly opening every time!
Morgan: "Hello there!"
Me: "GENERAL KENOBI!"
Love the video , thank you for sharing this with us x😊
I'm excited for whatever cursed content is coming on friday
Cool coffee stuff and better book you're reading!!
Just an aside: don't store spices in the light. It actually does degrade the volatile compounds over time.
Not a criticism. Just a tip.
My favorite hack to clean white/light-colored ceramic mugs - denture cleaner tablets. I add a drop of dish soap, and it wipes clean any of those old coffee and tea stains.
Finally finished the video now I am wondering about all the coffee brewers you have also the fact I have more than half of these tools
They have done tests on those "vacuum seal" products, and they don't do much because it is SO far away from a real vacuum. Protecting the inside from "new" air is important, of course, but that doesn't require the slight vacuum, just a tight seal. Which perhaps this does.
I'm so jealous about your demitas spoons. I just missed the drop.
And the humble knock box? Seen on every vid and doesn't get a look in I only say this as mine is used constantly. Seriously great content Morgan, keep em coming.
Very cool coffee collection :)
Also.... Was anyone else keeping an eye on the moving white splotch on the cabinets?
We love our Bonavita. We have had 2 now.
I am still using the glass lined thermal carafe from my 1800TH. Fits in the Connoisseur perfectly and no dripping!
You're content is great
An amazing vid and it's posted on my bday
Thank you so much Morgan i never got a heart by a channel the best bday gift.
I have been looking forever for a month that would keep my coffee hot!
Im glad i am not the only person with several different coffee machines in my kitchen.😂
Really cool videos. Hi from Montreal, CAN!
Brandon Sanderson's "Skyward" series is fantastic on audible! If you like his stuff, I highly recommend it. Just finished the 3rd book a week ago
As far as the Atmos losing its seal goes, mine only does this when the coffee is most fresh and is doing the most off-gassing of CO2 (right after roasting).
I have found that the best way to combat this is to just make sure I'm being vigilant and re-tightening once or 2x per day during the first 5 or so days. After that the rate of off-gassing isn't fast enough to call for re-tightening.
uMMM THIS IA SOMETHING I DIDN'T KNOW I WANTED YEY!
scrubbing with baking soda and a little bit of water to make a paste is really good for cleaning stains off ceramic
Love this
nice video. Love it!
The atmos doesn’t actually lose its seal. The coffee degasses as the pressure from the vacuum applies negative pressure on the beans. The gas in the chamber after the degassing is CO2 and doesn’t degrade your coffee beans.
Thank you for the information. Would you have suggestions on a good coffee grinder?
The loss of seel on coffee can also appear to be broken as the coffee de-gasses and the presssure inside equalises, however this does not mean any air has gotten in.
I have always assumed that the Atmos looses its seal because the beans degas CO2 so, for its purpose, there's no air in the container to affect the beans… and the beans stay fresh. I should test the theory by sealing an empty Atmos.
The Atmos will still lose its seal even if empty. I returned mine as I found they don't hold a seal for very long at all and didn't really live up to the marketing claims from Fellow.
@@jonathanfaber8113 I tested mine and it keeps the seal when empty.
I am more than ever convinced that it is CO2. Especially because I witness the same behaviour with my weck glass jar (like Masson but EU brand).
However I recently ordered a second Atmos and it was failing to achieve a proper seal. I returned it (thanks Amazon) and the replacement had the same fault. I asked for a refund. Fellow may have problems with its QA :(
About the vacuum container, you could see if is really letting air go inside or is the coffee still losting air, it is nota problem ir the pressure is equal again but because inside air from beans for example
The Fellow Joey seems better-suited to being placed under a bottomless portafilter, since there's only (usually) a single stream straight-down the middle; therefore, the opening doesn't have to be as wide.
I've been using a Fellow Atmos for a few months now, and I've never encountered it losing its vacuum seal yet (over a 24-hour period), and I only twist until I see the green ring pop up. Yours might be suffering from a factory defect?
Wow your videos are so cool
I want to make a coffee storage suggestion. Based on my education and experience as a chemist, I highly doubt that any of the air evacuation/minimization storage products sold for home use can remove enough oxygen to significantly retard staling.
Based both on that chemical education and on direct experience storing my own coffee, I suggest the most effective thing a typical home coffee maker can do to retard staling is storing the coffee in a freezer. My coffee comes in those laminated bags with an aluminum layer in the lamination and a wire fold keeper. I put the bag, unopened, in the freezer as soon as I get it home. Then, after opening the bag for first and subsequent uses, I fold it tightly closed, secure the folds with the keeper and put it back in the freezer. This suffices to minimize staling for the usual two week life of a pound of coffee in my kitchen. I know from experience that it will not suffice for a month after opening a bag. After a month, I can taste the staling. If you’ve got a deep freeze handy, probably all the better, but an ordinary kitchen freezer seems good enough for two weeks past opening. If your coffee comes in more environmentally friendly, but more permeable bags, you may want to find a more impermeable container, but first I’d just try it with the bag it comes in to see how well it works.
I am aware that lots of coffee advice says storing your coffee in a freezer will ruin it. Both my education and direct experience call this advice into question. I suggest you try it for yourself.
Thawing and refreezing it is less than ideal - it creates condensation on the beans, which is... not great, to say the least. Better to freeze until you're ready to use it, and then let it thaw slowly (like, overnight before you need it). Resealable bags are also a better choice than those aluminum bag closer things.
@@davidfuller581 For me, storing in the freezer has produced slower staling, as judged by my taste buds, than storing at room temp. I never have the beans out long enough for them to thaw. It’s true they may pick up a bit of condensation, but they are never noticeably damp after I weigh out the portion I intend to use. In fact, I sometimes dampen them slightly before grinding to keep down static cling, a trick I learned from James Hoffmann. The fact that I get static cling unless I add a bit of water is pretty good evidence they haven’t collected much condensation during freezer storage and use. (One N or two on the end of his name?) Do your own research is a common bit of advice these days. I don’t approve of trying to do your own medical research. It’s too complex a field. But I think trying different coffee storage methods is something one can do. For me, the freezer is better than room temp.
@@markholm7050 I agree, I keep my coffee in the freezer until I'm ready to use it. It keeps longer that way, which is always nice. I just don't keep it in the freezer after I open it - I don't want my coffee getting freezerburn nor do I want it picking up smells from the other stuff in my freezer. There's some idea that frozen beans make more fines but I'm not sure I believe that it makes any difference.
@@davidfuller581 Freezer burn refers mostly to dehydration that happens with temperature cycling in an ordinary freezer. To dehydrate, a frozen product has to contain significant water to start with. If the product is already dry, it can’t dry out much more. Coffee roasting heats the beans well above the boiling point of water while blowing air through them. There can’t be much water left in them. With other foods that I have definitely freezer burned in my freezer, I have seen the water that has migrated out of the food as ice crystals separate from the food but still inside the packaging. I have never seen that with coffee.
You can get the Airscape containers with coloured ceramic walls. Much prettier, although more expensive.
Morgan, what do you drink most days? Espresso, french press, pourover? I have always been curious.
Have you tried cleaning your Ember mug with Cafiza or a similar coffee focused cleaner?
You cant just tell us you got an entire closet of fun coffe stuff and not show us!! 😂 And i must ask where is your Hoodie from? Best holiday wishes from Sweden 😊
I love your videos
I dont think the atmos is losing vacuum. I think what is happening is the off gassing from the coffee which pops the thing up. But no additional air should be going in
Any recommendations on a coffee grinder? I thought you made a video but I can’t find it now, so I may have imagined it 😅
saludos desde Chile!
0:01 General Kenobi. Nice slide today
I need to get merch!
Hello Morgan, do you have grinder recommendations?
Cool video, the exchange i had to do from oz to ml or grams, killed me lol
Oh no, I’m so sorry 😣 I’m trying to be better about converting but completely forgot here!
@@morgandrinkscoffee don't sweat it, it happens, thank you:))
This is a great video, but I do have one question. Where did you get that hoodie?
Hey Morgan! Love to know where I can get a hold of your metal espresso cup/metal measuring cup. Thanks!
What tamper and distribution tool are you using? Pros and cons?
Suggestion: buy a bunch of the Loveramix mugs and then sell the extras that you don’t need on eBay. 🙃
The Atmos container is probably working fine the co2 released from beans is removing the seal , after a while the co2 will be removed from beans and it will stop doing it. To prove this put something else in it and see if the seal remains
Cheap life hack for anyone who wants the Ember mug but can't splurge on it right now or can't justify it: get yourself a candle warmer. They're like $8 CAD from Michaels (maybe less at other places? I dunno) but you can plop a mug on there and it'll keep it nice and warm. If the liquid to mug ratio is low enough it'll even re-heat your drink for you, but it'll take a while. Down-side is: since it's non-programmable, it just keeps heating your mug, and the heat only comes from the bottom of your mug, so you gotta keep an eye on it. I've legit left a mug of coffee on there long enough and completely forgotten about it that it all evaporated and dried out.
the atmos container might not be losing vacuum. nature, much like me and most dogs, hates vacuums and weird things happen in them the most likely thing that is happening is something called surface deabsortion where water molecules that are stuck in and on the coffee is now able to escape and enter the chamber raising the ambient pressure, there is also outgassing witch could be occurring. both those reasons are why caned goods are cooked in a pressure cooker to seal them.
I know this is an old video but do you have any recommendations on coffee grinders?
Whenever i use the ember mug, it creates a film on top of the coffee when i am drinking a milky beverage
The atmos container is just filling up with CO2 from degassing, it's not actually loosing it's seal.
Answer please
Between graef cm 702 vs gaggia md 15 whos better for first grinder?
The degassing of the coffee beans makes it appear as though you are losing your vacuum on the Atmos.
Hey Morgan, James gave a really good explaination in his latest video about why your atmos may appear to be losing pressure. I of course don't know if what he describes is the case with your atmos, but it could give you some peace of mind that it's not oxygen coming in if it is the case. th-cam.com/video/_Py8JOi3REg/w-d-xo.html. timestamped with his reasoning.
He of course could also be wrong, but thought i would share
Thanks for the link! This was my gut feeling when she mentioned it
What about a good coffee grinder? I’ve seen grinders range in price from $30-$330. Can you give me some recommendations?
What grinder do you use?
Note on the ember mug. on android the software is super super broken. do not sync or update your mug. it will break things
