Coffee
Posts here are devoted to the simple joy of coffee—whether it’s a nitro oat latte in Fargo or a tasting flight during a road trip. I share notes on cafés visited, beans tried and the small moments that make each cup memorable.
Coffee Cathedral. Ratio Eight making magic with beans from Sump Coffee. ☕️
We started “Magnolia Day” in Waco with an early breakfast at Magnolia Table. Good food, and a lot of it. 🍽🥓🍳
I tried a Melbourne “Magic” today. I would have a hard time telling the difference between a Magic and Cappuccino. ☕️
Very first espresso from my new Breville Oracle espresso machine. I’m impressed with the capabilities and the quality of the espresso. ☕️
Took my new Ratio Eight Coffee Maker and Baratza Virtuoso grinder for a first run this morning, paired with Sump Coffee beans. It’s like an automatic Chemex, delicious brew! ☕️ Awesome surprise from my amazing and thoughtful wife. 🥰
The Kingfield at Five Watt is definitely a treat, not an everyday coffee, but it sure is delicious. Fancy coffee time! ☕️
Mazie and I getting some coffee at Blue Bottle Coffee by World Trade Center. ☕️
Espresso. ☕️
Cleaning my espresso machine’s portafilter always gives me a moment of pause when you clean the tar-like sludge and consider “Wait, I drink this?” 😯☕️
Coffee flight at Fairgrounds: Verve (Santa Cruz), Dark Matter (Chicago), and Stumptown (Portland). All delicious. ☕️
