Baby Beluga

Well, it makes excellent brown water!!!

= Human error. We have to figure out the right proportion of grounds to water. We used to use a heaping 1/3 cup grounds for 40 oz of French press and it was perfect. So we used the same with this and it was very weak. Next time we’re going to try 1/2 cup grounds for 6 cups. It’s unfortunate that we’ll have to use MORE coffee each time! But maybe we can also cut back on water (we each usually have a 12 oz mug filled to the brim, so probably 30 ounces between the two of us).

Perfect oatmeal?

IMG_1593 (640x427) (2)

After being without our oatmeal ingredients this summer and moving to a new kitchen, I have YET to make a perfect bowl here. I like my oatmeal runny and VERY creamy with embedded chunks of stuff and crunchy toppings.

IMG_1610 (640x427) (2)

With all the ingredients I needed in house,this bowl was pretty darn close:

IMG_1604 (640x427) (2)

IMG_1605 (640x427) (2)

The Mix
  • 1/3 cup oats
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water ( <— a bit more water helps keep it from drying out)
  • 1/2 tbsp chia seeds 
  • 1/2 banana
  • Pinch salt, splash vanilla, sprinkle cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup cottage cheese, stirred in at end (Organic Valley is my fav!!)
  • 2 tbsp wheatberries, stirred in at end (pre-cooked from fridge)
  • Toppings: Sample Galaxy Granola + TJs Sunflower Butter

Reader Jill sent me this NPR cast with a funny song about "Oat Groats" at the 1:23 mark 🙂

 

Which led me to be singing Raffi’s Oats And Beans And Barley

Which led me to Baby Beluga!

Larbs and I LOVED Raffi when we were little!

    Cute songs! I usually use 1 heaping tablespoon for every 6 oz. or so of water – I think that’s pretty standard for coffeemakers! Unless I’m making really strong coffee to make cafe au lait, then I use 1 tbsp for every cup of water.

    I am all about the creamy oats! I use unsweetened applesauce in mine, flax, cinnamon and almond milk. I was sad this morning when it was over. As for coffee, we like it strong! We use a tablespoon per cup when we brew coffee at my in law’s house in a regular pot. We love the Keurig because every cup is perfect. We stopped using a regular pot due to all the waste. I am sure you will get the coffee figured out and I am glad your oats are getting closer. I hope you have a great day Kath!

    Hi,
    I have the same coffee maker, it’s so funky. The perfect ratio of coffee to water is 1 less scoop (the one that came with the cofee maker) of coffee to the number of coffee cups on the coffee pot measure. It’s perfect every time, doesn’t matter if it’s 4 cups or 12.
    Take care,
    Koko

    Probably everyone has their own ratio, but I take how many cups water, divide it by 2, and use that many tablespoons. (10c. water = 5T. grounds). Plus you always have to add that half T. at the end, as a kicker. 🙂

    I’ll jump in on the coffee ratios 🙂
    I have a similar Cuisinart. I use the scoop that came with it – and use 1 scoop of coffee per 5oz. water. So for my typical morning ratio: it comes out to 6 scoops of coffee to 30-32 oz of water. It comes out strong – but that’s how I like it. Having some now as I type this….loving those sbux flavor infusions! Caramel is divine….

    When I make coffee in the coffee maker it 1 scoop (about a tablespoon) of grounds to 1 cup of water. If I make extra I’ll store in the fridge for an iced coffee or just simply reheat it. That way I’m not wasting extra filters by brewing every day.

    For coffee … we do 1 tablespoon per 6 ounces of water – so for 24 ounces I do a 1/4 cup grounds! We do this because 24 oz = the 4 cup line on our coffee maker, giving two people one nice tall cup of coffee 🙂

    I loved Raffi growing up as well, and one day during my freshman year of college, the topic of childhood songs came up with my roommate. I thought everyone knew about Raffi, so I was shocked when I learned that she had never heard of him. She thought “Baby Beluga” and “Down by the Bay” were straight-up weird. I suppose if you don’t hear Raffi songs until you’re 18, you take a slightly different view of them 🙂

    Hi! I recently got the same exact coffeemaker, and I think it comes with a scoop. I do the ratio of one scoop to one cup, maybe a little less water if you want stronger coffee. Also, I am not sure if you regularly go to Trader Joes, but they have some really good coffee (whole beans and ground!).

    Kath, I have a question for you if you don’t mind: Got a DSLR (Canon EOS Rebel t2i) on Thursday and am blown away by the GORGEOUS photos it takes. WAY too much fun! But when I post them onto my blog, the pics don’t look NEARLY as beautiful as the originals. Your blog pics look to me like they are every bit as clear and sharp and amazing as the originals. Can you tell me how you get your photos to keep their gorgeousness when you put them on your blog? I would be SO GRATEFUL. I thought you’d be the best person to ask since your blog is the main one that inspired me to bite the bullet and get me a DSLR. 😉

    One of those small scoops that comes in grocery store coffee cans is actually about 2 tablespoons. (And a cup is often considered 6 oz. for some reason!) Like Estella above, we use 2 tbsp., or 1/8th cup of ground coffee per 8 oz. cup we want to brew. Works perfectly!

    Hi, Kath!

    Are you grinding your own coffee beans? I know there’s a big difference in coarseness between coffee used for french presses and coffee used for drip brewers. You might just need to grind it finer. If you do it at the grocery store, there are usually little tick marks for “drip,” “espresso,” etc…

    I have noticed that using the French Press requires less coffee, and I like that it’s easier to clean. Your new machine looks great, though, and I’m sure you will figure out the right ratio of grounds to water soon. Also, thanks for the reference to your Charlottesville category for restaurants. Got another question for you… my husband is curious about a gym. Any in the area have 1-month memberships that you know of? If not… no worries… 🙂 Thanks!!

    RE coarse grounds: We never used them in our French press. I am always one to take shortcuts, and that would limit the types of coffee we could use. So I always ground them fine so it would be extra strong.

    HOWEVER, the coffee that Matt used today was one we got in whole bean form and he ground in our grinder and he ground it WAY TO COARSE! He was impatient. when I went to remove the grinds from the filter today, I noticed they were too chunky. So that was the problem!

    I looooooove Baby Beluga! My sister and I were such big Raffi fans — we had a video and we even saw him live in concert! Lol, such nerds. I loved the “apples and bananas” song the best. 🙂 Happy Saturday!

    The coffee ratio typically should be 2 Tablespoons for 8 ounces of water. Give that a try.

    Raffi reminds me of car trips as a kid! We have that coffee maker and use one heaping tbsp for every cup line on the carafe. Grinding it at the finest of the drip settings when using the “self-grind” machine makes for really delicious coffee.

    I don’t drink coffee much (maybe once a month max) so I always have trouble with measurement when I make coffee for others 😀

    My husband also loves Baby Beluga. I have it on a mix CD with other non-kid songs, and it always throws me when it comes to this one, then puts a smile on my face when I realize what’s going on 🙂

    The size of your grounds also matters; for French press, usually a larger ground size is used than one would prefer for automatic coffee makers – also, smaller grounds will give you stronger coffee. I don’t know if someone already made a comment to this effect, but it might help you save a bit on coffee!
