Hey everyone

I’m curious—do any of you have coffee rituals that help you get into the zone for work or brainstorming? Whether it’s a specific type of coffee, a brewing method, or even the perfect cup temperature, I’d love to hear what helps you stay focused and energised during your day.

Thanks!

Rituals? Do you mean the cup of hot goodness that I have in front of me all day long? And the mugs are often a reflection of how I am feeling when I wake up that morning? That coffee? Oh, coffee and I go way back. Our relationship is complicated and loving and I don’t have a problem. Not at all. NO PROBLEM. But maybe a little bit of one.

“cracks fingers and gets to typing”

Good coffee is my morning meditation routine before I have to stare at social feeds  all day (that literally makes my eyes water some days), and the whole thing takes maybe 7 minutes. 

I use an Electric kettle at 205° exactly since boiling water makes coffee bitter. I treated myself last year to an electronic coffee grinder with custom grind settings, so no matter what size grind I need, it’s consistent and doesnt waste the coffee I spent my “notasbigasiwouldlikeittobe” paycheck on. I grind 18ish grams and use an aero press that I upgrading with a gasket-sealed attachment from Fellow. This allows the coffee to not spill out of the bottom and I can use more pressure when I press. The steel filter is great too!  #green

 

After that its cream and sugar!

Coffee? Love the smell, hate the taste.

I enjoy my diet coke with some reading with my light therapy lamp before I get my day going.
