I once tried brewing my own cup of coffee from scratch. I used a spices grinder and the smell of the beans reminded me of a corner shop we used to go to that has coffee and spices and the random childhood favorite lollipops. I didn’t bother weighing amounts nor cared about the water temperature. My first cup was very diluted it made me wish I just used my Nespresso to make a cup of strong black coffee. I’m definitely going back and giving it another chance with more patience. Coffee is a lifestyle on its own.
