My stepson is leaving tomorrow for Kazakhstan and the thing he is most excited about is the apparently great "coffee scene".

I’ve been going to a third cup for the day lately, and that’s got to stop.

I’ve been considering scaling back my coffee intake, but the kid has started to wake and come to our room in the middle of the night again.

Must be very picky about the government 'round your area ;)

Was gifted ~12 lbs of coffee from Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf for my birthday, all of it whole bean... guess I'm in the market for a grinder.

These are standard issue here in Commonwealth land. They’re handy for quickly boiling water when cooking too.

crazy what a different way of making coffee can do to the caffeine and effect on a person. we had been using our ratio maker that simulates a pour over but is really closer to a drip maker here in Michigan. every time i drank a cup i felt jittery because i was used to our breville at home. we switched to the same breville which is an Americano (with a double shot espresso but same exact coffee bean) and the difference is crazy. i dont feel like i just threw in a lipper of kodiak.

What’s a pour over?

just a snobby way of saying slowly and intermittently pouring hot water over grounds so it’s absorbed and filters through into a cup (or other vessel).

envious that you live in the third wave capital of the world. you also live in a land with super large creatures, so I guess it evens things out for me.

this. some places refer to it as a hand brew as well, mostly Europe.

biggest difference is you get to control the rate at which the water is poured over the grounds as opposed to a drip machine just constantly dropping water over a bed.
