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.

    Neat. I don't vary my grinder settings normally. Fellow Opus 4.5 Moka Pot

    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.

    Thanks for starting this. I almost exclusively brew light roasts via Chemex. I'll vary my grind slightly depending on how many cups I'm making, but for my standard two cup (32g of beans) recipe: 20 on Encore for Chemex.

    When making one cup I'll use ~18, and for three cups I'll use ~22.

    I guess we should add grams and cup information to the chart

    I'm not sure how much it matters to anyone else - might just be something that I do. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else adjusts grind based on weight of beans, though. Or maybe it's more common just to always brew the same amount with a particular method?

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