coffee standards and rulebreaking
I'm a pourover coffee person. No fucking coffee machine for me. (Had one. A box elder bug crawled in and perished. Don't need.)
equipment
- Janky plastic HarioV60 knock-off
- Real HarioV60 #2 filters (no substitutes).
- Low tech gooseneck spout kettle, stovetop deal.
rulebreaking
- Coffee's always preground: for the laziness, for one less thing to clean. Sometimes Cafe du Monde, sometimes Starbucks bagged, sometimes Dunkin, sometimes good shit bagged from our fav 3rd wave shop.
- I don't temp the water, I don't usu time after the first kettle pour for the first bloom/extraction.
- At the end I ruin it with some no sugar coffeemate in some garish flavor. (Love real heavy cream, but the shelf life sucks.)
