Coffee at home

Maybe...

Following advice from @MarvB @jlong17 @wllm1313 works well:

1. Find a scoop that you can figure how many it takes to equate 20g of coffee. I use a ratio of 20g coffee : 300g water
(Me, 3 scoops whole beans to 1 coffee mug of water... easy)

2. Fresh burr grind the whole beans of your choice roast

3. Pourover at 195-205 F water (just a minute or two off the boil) using proper bloom technique, yadda yadda

4. LEFT pinkie out

Enjoy! Damn fine cuppa joe

LEFT pinkie out?
What the.....?
I'm RIGHT handed!
No wonder my coffee tasted like crap this morning!

Oh, I was totally there too, used 1/2 & 1/2 in every cup... when I was in high school. But then I grew up.

If you spoil your dog that much, pray you don't have a little girl...

The real rabbit hole is when you start roasting your own beans. I look at it like reloading for coffee.

Edit: my current powder below. Load is 21.75g coffee with 300g water at boiling in a v60 pour over. And I can make it in 5 minutes.

......or three...

Also let me reiterate. Folgers, is a hate crime.

The beauty of low standards is that it’s so easy to exceed expectations.
Plus, low standards for a cup of coffee have much less negative consequences than traditional applications of the “low standards” criteria.

 

[MarvB]

True @Gerald Martin BUT... who wants to start each morning with low standards?? Though I guess it can only improve from there....

1. IN HIGH SCHOOL... BRO... REDBULL... what are you a BOOMER GTFO

2. I can't read that an not think of your hunt write up

 

[geetar]

Staying with your in-laws and being subjected to their Folgers...

The best part of waking up is definitely not Folgers in my cup. That could be construed as false advertising. I mean if Red Bull got sued because they didn’t actually make people grow wings I think we have a case against Folgers too.

Accurate compulsion analogy.

Marv nailed it. You might end the day on low standards, but no one wants to wake up to them.

 

[MarvB]

......low standards, but no one wants to wake up to them.

Oh god.....just had a flashback to college

“The best part of waking’ up...”
Is knowing the best woman I ever laid eyes on is grinding me a small batch of Costco’s finest as I stumble into the kitchen.

What brand the beans are is waaaay down the “shive a git” list.
