Inspired by excellent Japan pics from @marauder & @mikeodea, BOOM I busted out the #Hario V60 & made a stellar cuppa ~ Here’s what I did: Using 1g coffee : 17g water ratio taught to me by @sherpakid, measured 18g of @madcapcoffee #Gacokwe, ground course @ 24 on #Baratza Encore burr grinder, & brought 317g of H2O to boil then down to 208F for the pour over - note: the filter was pre-wetted with hot water, water was filter via #Brita, grounds were fully moistened to “bloom” for 20 secs or so & the cup was warmed with hot water ~ try this set up & let me know what you think + would love to hear your fave #coffee extraction set ups ~ #OhSoGood #AlwaysChasingThatPerfectCupOfCoffee #CoffeeIsMyCrack #DripperV60 (Taken with instagram)

It’s 2013, and you’re probably making lots of resolutions for the new year. Personally, I’m making goals, and if you need a good goal or resolution for 2013, might I suggest this one: Makeover your home coffee for 2013. It’s very easy to do, and I’m going to show you how. This is not only…

Great points as always by Jason Dominy. Read his complete post. It’s so worth it.

DISCLOSURE #2: Making a great cup of coffee is chemistry class. I sucked at chemistry class. I make great coffee at home. If I can do it, so can you!

Ride your bike. Drink great coffee.
