I dive deep into why context matters more than anything when it comes to coffee equipment recommendations and brewing methods. Throughout this episode, I share my personal coffee journey as a pour-over enthusiast, occasional espresso puller, and coffee roaster who's tried just about every brewing method out there. I break down my honest opinions on the Kase Six grinder, discuss why I'm not sold on light roasts, and explain why medium roasts hit that perfect sweet spot for me. I also reveal my surprising take on dark roasted African coffees that might change how you think about darker roasts entirely.
By listening to this episode, you'll learn how to make better-informed decisions about coffee gear purchases by understanding the reviewer's context and brewing preferences. You'll also discover why your grinder matters more than your brewing equipment, gain insight into how different roast levels affect flavor profiles, and learn to trust your own coffee preferences instead of chasing trends. Whether you're a French press loyalist or a pour-over perfectionist, this episode will help you cut through the noise and focus on what actually matters for your coffee journey.
