Trying to dial in a new grinder for my morning pour-over took me a solid three weeks of daily tweaking.

I was chasing a balanced cup from these Ethiopian beans, but every morning was either too sour or too bitter until I finally landed on a 22 on the Baratza Encore and a 3:30 total brew time. What's the longest you've spent fixing one specific brew problem?

Man, that sounds so familiar.

Honestly, is the background music just the same three ads on repeat for everyone? My life's soundtrack is that one insurance jingle, a podcast host reading me mattress discounts, and the sound of my own frustrated sigh when the wifi drops again.

Yeah, we all live the same life with different background music.
