In this episode, I dive deep into the 10 unmistakable signs that show you're truly growing as a coffee brewer. I share my personal journey from someone who followed every rule religiously to discovering that the best coffee comes from trusting your own palate and breaking a few rules along the way. I discuss how growth in coffee brewing isn't about impressing others or having the perfect gear - it's about developing your taste, understanding when something goes wrong and knowing exactly how to fix it, and embracing the ritual rather than just going through the motions.

Throughout the episode, I explore how my own preferences have evolved, including my changing relationship with light roasts and why I now treat them more like tea. I emphasize that better coffee is completely subjective and that real growth comes from curiosity rather than competition. By listening to this episode, you'll learn to recognize your own progress as a coffee brewer and gain confidence to trust your instincts when crafting your daily cup. You'll also discover why flexibility with ratios, appreciation for the brewing ritual, and willingness to experiment are key indicators that you're on the right path in your coffee journey.
