Coffee

A place about coffee for coffee people. An alternate home for the Specialty Coffee weirdos and normal folks alike, united by a shared passion for coffee. This is a space for folks from industry insiders to casual consumers and everyone else in between.

Specialty coffee has it's own wild suite of dogmas and rules; there's all sorts of things we're "supposed" to do - or not. Many of these have all sorts of very good reasons and even some have scientific backing.

But we all have one or two we absolutely deviate from, despite all that. What's yours?

The most common breach of norms is that I brew almost everything at far weaker ratios than is considered normal; I use a 1:22 or so.

My other big sacrilege is that I tend to enjoy almost any coffee I get my hands on. I can tell the difference, I can appreciate fines coffees from finest farms and roasters - but I can also enjoy far more casual coffees and drinks that would be sniffed at by firmest Specialty sacraments.

Instant is fine sometimes.
