This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

How Most Coffee Pros Brew Their Morning Pots. The pour-over, requiring a handheld kettle and a funnel dripper with a conical filter that sits on top of the cup to catch the coffee. (www.cnet.com)

Brew method is about control and experimentation. Not a big difference, but cheap, easy and controllable. V60 is basically BIFL.

Oh I think roast is primary. Too dark or light ruins any beans. I'd rather have well roasted ordinary beans than fancy beans badly over or under roasted. I'd rather have no coffee frankly, in some cases.

Respectfully disagree. Beans are everything. Shitty beans and you have no where to go but shitty dark roast for shitty coffee. Good beans, and you can go to amazing places depending on the roast or shitty dark roast for shitty coffee.
