My workplace has restaurant-style drip coffee makers and they use a paper filter. But are all paper filters equally effective at blocking the diterpene boogaboo?

Still sounds strange but I'll try it out ; )

I packed my pour-over things, and… was wildly unsuccessful…

Did you figure out what went wrong while travelling? (I'd suspect the local water first.)

Baking soda?! I found alkaline water gave terrible results, do you add it after brewing?

To minimize bitterness with a fast brew as others have mentioned, try out CTC black tea, it's machined ("crush-tear-curl") tea that comes in a coarse powder/pellet form and extracts completely and quickly due to enormous surface area. You'll be sure to find it some an Indian grocery store. Brooke Bond Red Label, Lipton Yellow Label, and Wagh Bakri are the names I remember seeing, IIRC I've tried all of those and they're all about the same. Terrible sounding process name but give it a chance!

If no more sugar will dissolve I'd take that as a sign that it's time to stop adding sugar. I mean, the water is saying so.

But wait! I just discovered that the Pipamoka is made by Wacaco! 🤣🤣 Absolute gold mine, this thread.

Even just saying the name is intrinsically funny.

My whole family got a hotel when our delayed plane made us miss a connection and that was five years back.

I don't fly much and sleepable benches helps me feel like that's the right thing to not do.
