Hi Telegram friends!
It's been a busy summer. 😅
Let me share with you a new hobby/habit.
I never used to drink coffee - because I didn't like it much, thought it's not healthy and didn't want to get addicted to it/depend on it.
My wife had a habit of drinking coffee and usually I would just take a sip to taste if I felt like it.
Last year we got a moka pot (brikka) and a bean grinder and started to brew coffee at home. After trying out different beans, we preferred the fruity and acid flavor of light roasts and I started to have a small cup when my wife would have a coffee - which I quite enjoyed.
Only recently, we learned more about brewing coffee (through youtube) and I must say that it's quite fascinating. It's both science and an art / skill and the taste can change quite a bit depending on the beans, your equipment and how you prepare or brew the coffee.
I became the main coffee brewer at home and also share half of the coffee with my wife. 😊
Regarding our method: We have an induction plate and don't heat up the water first, despite many youtubers recommending it. I heat it on a slow heat to slowly increase the temperature and when it's hot enough (coffee started to brew) I turn off the stove, but keep the pot on the plate to use the remaining heat.
We have it 3-4 times a week and it has become a relaxing and enjoyable habit now.
It also turns out to be cheaper than store bought coffee or coffee from convenience stores. 😊
Do you have a habit of drinking coffee? Or do you brew your own coffee?
