Home Brewing
I use a Hario Mini-Mill which I bought from Ebay. I do not know any local shops that sell it. When I find them I will list them here. I used to use a phin but nowadays I just use a press. I bought my press at around 200php from Robinson’s Galleria’s department store.
Where to Buy Equipment
Here’s a list of local stores in Manila that sell coffee equipment like pour over dripper, Chemex, filters, grinders, etc.
