First time looking at one of these in a while but unrelated thought - are moneygram/oracle getting their money’s worth with whatever sponsorship dollars they’re paying to be part of the official name? I never hear or see them referenced in that way.

Just about the only contention I have with James hoffman is his disregard for ratios as my brain just tends to do that math easier so I start with a 17:1 ratio of water:coffee

Agreed which is so wild that the other two edits from this weekend (driver radios and race highlights) were noticeably lower quality than typical

As with just about all things coffee, James Hoffmann is a good starting point.

This should help dial in your grind size to reach a target brew time. Trial and error (with notes!) I’d half the fun to figure out your recipe. At the point my ratio/grind is pretty scalable for small and large pours.

Daily driver is a breville drip. Current ratio is 1200g water to 42g coffee. Usually grind the night before (gasp) so I can just press brew when I’m ready. I have a daily driver coffee that stays on hand but am always happy to grab a new bag of something interesting
