    cutting off the extra 10 minutes that it used to take me to make coffee

    What!? How does it take you 10min? I weigh, grind with a manual grinder and brew with a manual-lever espresso maker (that I also have to preheat with hot water)…it’s about as slow as it can possibly be and I still don’t take 10min to make my morning espresso.

      It takes me 10 minutes to do anything when I first wake up in the morning, coffee or no, to be fair. I’m not a morning person. I also manually grind my beans (using one of those older hopper-and-box grinders), and do a V60 pourover with water slightly cooler than boiling (somewhere between 80-90°C, based off vibes I don’t have a temperature controlled kettle).

      Or at least, I did, before I switched to a machine. Still do the V60 later in the day, tho, it’s a nice little ritual.
