When you listen to someone professional in his job, you immediately get how deep is his knowledge on the topic ... and how much we can improve if we are just a beginner !!!
Thanks Coe for sharing his experiences! ☕☕☕

My bullet arrives tomorrow, super stoked to start using it. I’m currently using the Behmor he mentioned and I’m ready to get to the next step up

Are all winning competition roasts, light roasts? I don't even know anybody in my circle that drinks light roasts, so why does it seem like the emphasis is always on light and sweet in these types of competitions? It seems that the majority of coffee drinkers would prefer a medium roast.
