Comments:
- Major clogging incident in my filter. Please be advised.
- I suspect my ratio was a little too heavily weighted
- Which meant water drained out too quickly
- And I left it too long before the next pour
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Warm buttered fruit scones today
First Taste: Grapefruit vibes again, but not as strong. Everything’s a bit more muddled today.
Second Taste: Grapefruit gets stronger as it cools, and there’s some savoury vibes in there I can’t place.
Rating:
A bit all over the place today, probably because I was too busy fiddling with my spreadsheet (NOT a euphamism, good grief) rather than focusing on the coffee production. I take full responsibility.
