Can Every Specialty Coffee Be Great?

Send us a text

In this introspective episode, I dive deep into one of my biggest challenges as a coffee enthusiast and professional: the quest to make every specialty coffee taste exceptional. Drawing from my engineering background and problem-solving mindset, I share my recent experience with a Sumatran coffee that led me to question what truly makes coffee "special." I explore the frustrations and revelations that come with trying to perfect each brew, discussing how I navigate between technical expertise and accepting a coffee's inherent characteristics.

In this episode, listeners will learn about the mental and technical challenges of coffee brewing, gain insights into a professional's approach to problem-solving in coffee preparation, and understand the importance of balancing perfectionism with acceptance in the coffee journey. I also share my thoughts on personal growth in coffee tasting and how our current perspectives shape our coffee experiences.
