Poll Update, Zerno Contest, and Aiden Winner
Added 2025-03-14 16:49:49 +0000 UTCHello everyone,
Thank you for your opinions and comments on my last post. The majority of respondents did prefer a Patreon post for every YouTube video I post so we’ll aim to share some updates on the making of each video along with a link to the video or an upload of it (minus any ad reads).
The winner of the Aiden from the last contest was Josh in the UK, congrats to him! I’m sure it’ll brew many a delightful coffee batch.
As a thank you for your patronage, I want to open up the contest for the Zerno Z1 grinder for you before the video goes out on my YouTube channel. It’s still in the editing process now but I like the idea of it already being allocated a winner before the video is public. So, here is the Gleam contest link if you’re interested in the possibility of winning it:
https://gleam.io/SQGuF/win-a-zerno-z1-grinder
The only requirement to enter is that you answer the question we ask on Gleam, and it helps us if you can enter using the email address linked to your Patreon account (if that’s not possible for some reason, send me a message and we’ll make a note!).

I am a Patreon member but I needed a little time to think of a good answer. I was a couple of days too late... Sigh!

2025-04-02 22:44:17 +0000 UTCSuch a shame the competition closed so early :( baby life made it so hard to keep up with everything…

2025-03-27 20:50:54 +0000 UTCHello. Why did the competition finish so early ?

2025-03-25 23:56:08 +0000 UTCI am also slightly frustrated that the competition already closed at the time of the video release. Would have loved to have a chance to win this…

2025-03-22 11:16:40 +0000 UTCI’m annoyed that it’s no longer open at the time of the video release on YouTube which is when lots of supporters notice. This is a great prize.

2025-03-22 04:15:34 +0000 UTCAww, did the competition close already? Shame I missed it, but congrats to whoever gets it, it looks lovely!

2025-03-21 20:16:43 +0000 UTCis it already closed? I'm sure I was able to enter :( is there a chance to extend it?

2025-03-20 12:52:37 +0000 UTCThis is very exciting!

2025-03-20 12:49:13 +0000 UTCThank you! Will message you about this to make sure we have your entry
James Hoffmann
2025-03-19 15:20:37 +0000 UTCI can't tell if I've entered. When I got back to check it says 0 entries but also says I've logged into Gleam. I don't understand 😞

2025-03-19 12:10:36 +0000 UTCYou can send me a DM on Patreon, but if you entered with your name as it is here then it'll all be good!
James Hoffmann
2025-03-19 11:35:43 +0000 UTCI can't access the mail I got on patreon, and entered with another mail address, how can I message you about it?😅

2025-03-17 21:25:42 +0000 UTCAnd as an aside for any US people entering the Zerno giveaway, you can purchase a 750-1000w step-up converter that will allow you to use this grinder. Because of the way the motor is setup for 220v, you wouldn't want to simply change the cord. Optimistically, I already have my eye on the Litefuze LT-1000. 😂

2025-03-17 02:17:16 +0000 UTCSounds about right.

2025-03-14 23:30:16 +0000 UTCAs a “Josh in the UK” I’m now frantically checking my emails to see if this was me 👀
Josh Farrant
2025-03-14 21:14:40 +0000 UTCFor some reason this one was logged in with another of my emails and now I can't take the entry back (so I have 2 entries, one with each email, and I obviously intend to enter only once)

2025-03-14 18:41:27 +0000 UTCGlad for the updates on your new videos, and how exciting we get to watch them without ad reads! Although your transitions to ad reads are hilarious sometimes. 😂 This is my first content entry! :)Thanks for the opportunity, and love your Discord community as well. They’ve helped me decide on a couple drippers I’m interested in.

2025-03-14 18:23:04 +0000 UTCJust to confirm. As this is a 220V grinder it is only open to EU entrants, correct?
James H
2025-03-14 18:11:28 +0000 UTC:D nice one 👍

2025-03-14 17:51:49 +0000 UTCCongrats! Hope he'll have fun with the machine. Can't miss the Z1 competition, though!

2025-03-14 17:50:48 +0000 UTCSame here, Imagine having grinder from this calibre for your morning coffee.
Nedzhatin Dzheman
2025-03-14 17:50:44 +0000 UTCI don't think I've been this excited for a giveaway yet! With how long the wait times are and how expensive it is to import it to the EU it feels like purchasing a Zerno is impossible to justify.

2025-03-14 17:37:32 +0000 UTCHi James & Team. I can’t see a way to message you on Patreon, but my entry is under my name. However it asked me to link my Apple ID so it’s possible somewhere in the mix it has used a different email. Fingers crossed it didn’t!
Kirk Watts
2025-03-14 17:22:20 +0000 UTCThis grinder looks stunning. Beautiful design P.S. same issue as last time with the Apple relay email address; I used the same alternate email that I had used last fine

2025-03-14 17:10:48 +0000 UTCI think I love you, Sir James of the Brown Water, first of his name.
