The Fundamentals
Great Coffee Is Simple
Fresh Beans
Buy whole beans roasted within the last 2-4 weeks. Pre-ground coffee starts going stale within minutes.
Grind Right Before Brewing
A decent burr grinder matters more than a fancy machine. Even a $40 hand grinder transforms your cup.
Use Good Water
Coffee is 98% water. If your tap water tastes bad, your coffee will too. Filter it.
Weigh & Time
A $12 kitchen scale and a phone timer are all you need for consistent, repeatable results every morning.
