Cupping vs Brewing: Stability and Variation
Cupping is built for stability.Brewing is built for expression. In cupping:Same grind.Same ratio.Same temperature.Minimal intervention. The goal is to remove variables —to understand what the coffee is. In brewing:Pouring changes...

Same Parameters, Different Hands
Same coffee.Same ratio.Same grind size.Same temperature. Different results. Brewing isn’t just numbers —it’s how those numbers are executed. We’re exploring:• How pouring speed changes flow and extraction• Why agitation varies...

The Science of Coffee Cupping
Cupping isn’t about preference.It’s about control. Same grind.Same ratio.Same temperature. By removing variables, cupping allows us to evaluate:• Aroma before extraction• Flavor development over time• Acidity, sweetness, and bitterness in...

Brewing Light Roasts with a Traditional V60
Light-roast coffees demand more from extraction.Higher density.Lower solubility.Less margin for error. The question isn’t whether the V60 is outdated —it’s how we adapt it. We’re exploring:• How grind size compensates...

How Fast-Flow Drippers Change Extraction Fast-flow drippers don’t just brew faster.They change how extraction happens. Same coffee.Same grind.Different structure in the cup. We’re exploring:• Why faster flow reduces contact time...

Tamping, Distribution, and What Actually Matters Force-based vs gravity tampers.Cross vs straight distribution tools. Same coffee. Same machine.Different results — and not always for the reasons you think. We’re breaking...
