Take Your Pour-Over Coffee Game to the Next Level
Skip the line at the fancy cafe. Make the best coffee in town at home.
Modern civilization is fueled by coffee. It creates a people who are alert and energetic, ready to take on big problems and solve them. Both the American and French revolutions were planned in coffee houses.
If you think about how important it is to our culture and productivity, you might find that you want to treat this noble beverage with the respect it deserves. Do you stop at Starbucks and wait in line for your fix? Do you let an automatic brewer make a less-than-adequate cup in your kitchen?
Won’t bad coffee fuel a bad civilization? How about if we all promise to drink better coffee? Maybe things will get better?
You don’t need a $5K espresso machine for this. The best cup of coffee, according to serious coffee geeks, is a pour over brew, done well. And to be done well, it has to be the right temperature, poured at the right speed, through a cone brewer.
The cheapest way to do this is by hand. But that takes some skill.
