Brewing Better at Home

Weigh your coffee. A cheap kitchen scale is the single highest-impact upgrade in home brewing. Sixty grams per litre is a sane place to start.

Grind fresh and grind coarser than you think. Most home brews are over-extracted and bitter because the grind is set for espresso.

Use water that tastes good on its own. Very soft or heavily chlorinated water will flatten even an excellent coffee.
