I’m never completely satisfied when it comes to coffee, but coffee always offers up uncharted avenues for experimentation, improvement, or glimpses of untapped potential. I’m honestly not sure I’ll ever be able to walk away from it. Coffee is a collective unfinished masterpiece.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It\u2019s hard not to quote the entire post so please read it if you have time.<\/p>\n

Coffee is one of those hobbies that I\u2019ve never had a problem with spending time on. My coffee, most days is pretty darn good. It\u2019s at a level that I\u2019m very happy with but there\u2019s always this opportunity to be better. There\u2019s no reason why I feel so driven to make a perfect cup especially when the variables in my life change so much but I can tell you how many instances I\u2019ve had a perfect cup of coffee. There are few.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Yesterday I made a double shot of espresso and it was remarkable. I have very few pulls that are great like that\u2026maybe less than 9 in my entire life. The pursuit of a perfect shot every time has me on my feet when the alarm goes off every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"via Tonx: I’m never completely satisfied when it comes to coffee, but coffee always offers up uncharted avenues…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","apple_news_api_created_at":"","apple_news_api_id":"","apple_news_api_modified_at":"","apple_news_api_revision":"","apple_news_api_share_url":"","apple_news_cover_media_provider":"image","apple_news_coverimage":0,"apple_news_coverimage_caption":"","apple_news_cover_video_id":0,"apple_news_cover_video_url":"","apple_news_cover_embedwebvideo_url":"","apple_news_is_hidden":"","apple_news_is_paid":"","apple_news_is_preview":"","apple_news_is_sponsored":"","apple_news_maturity_rating":"","apple_news_metadata":"\"\"","apple_news_pullquote":"","apple_news_pullquote_position":"","apple_news_slug":"","apple_news_sections":[],"apple_news_suppress_video_url":false,"apple_news_use_image_component":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_custom_appearance":"","csco_disable_excerpt_posts_layout":false,"csco_page_load_nextpost":"","csco_post_video_location":[],"csco_post_video_location_hash":"","csco_post_video_url":"","csco_post_video_bg_start_time":0,"csco_post_video_bg_end_time":0,"_jetpack_hide_featured_image":false,"_jetpack_featured_image_duplicate_dismissed":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[4,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4130","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-culinary","category-linked","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb3IC4-14C","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":3415,"url":"https:\/\/adamchandler.me\/blog\/2012\/01\/09\/a-tech-guys-version-of-the-perfect-cup-of-coffee\/","url_meta":{"origin":4130,"position":0},"title":"\u2605 “A TECH GUY\u2019S VERSION OF THE PERFECT CUP OF COFFEE”","author":"Adam Chandler","date":"January 9, 2012","format":false,"excerpt":"via Uncrunched: When I\u2019m in San Francisco I usually get coffee at\u00a0Philz\u00a0because it\u2019s the closest thing to perfect coffee that I\u2019ve ever had, and it\u2019s near where I stay when I\u2019m there.
