Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

I've just reached the point where'd id say I have full control of the process (just bought a grinder, kettle has temp, I've got an accurate scale)

I've got a basic understanding of how for example water temp affects the taste, but not how to combine the right grind size with the right temp with the right beans at the right ratio

I do pourover

thank you all

The only thing that really matters here is to find a bean you like the taste of. When you have that, you can't really make a bad cup from it.

I think most of the techniques we read about in forums are for when you have a bean that is either OK or bad for you. At that point, you'll appreciate the techniques to help elevate the coffee to something you find palatable
