As a nurse, I can tell you what my first thought was, but no (also walnut would be a terrible material for that).

James Hoffmann has a ceramic one and he’s pretty popular so it’s fair that someone might recognize a wooden one :)

edit: his is from loveramics

I think James uses this- KNODOS Bean Dosing Bowl and RDT Spray.

Do you notice a substantial difference? I boil Gatorade to make tea.

Yeah, just a single little spritz really cuts down on the static noticeably, so I can keep everything a lot cleaner without having to actually wipe everything down every time I make coffee

As a coffee nerd, that was way too easy 😅

Spritzing your beans helps reduce the static charge, and you end up with way less retention in the grinder! I love mine haha
