You do not need a laboratory on your kitchen counter. Start with a few repeatable habits and make your morning cup your own.
1. Keep equipment clean
Rinse brewers after use and clean accessible grinder parts as directed by the manufacturer. Start every brew without yesterday’s residue.
2. Grind fresh. 3. Measure.
Grind shortly before brewing and weigh both coffee and water. Find a starting ratio you enjoy, then change one variable at a time.
4. Consider water. 5. Take notes.
Use clean drinking water and follow the brewer’s temperature guidance. A short note about the beans, grind and taste makes your next experiment easier.
