In this inaugural episode of Random Ramblings from Randleman, I share a new coffee subscription service that I have joined called Trade Coffee. I’m two bags in, and so far, I love it. And with a little soap box discussion of coffee-related opinions, you get a glimpse into my inner coffee nerd.
I most typically brew my coffee using a pourover, like the Chemex or Hario V60. I prefer the flavors that those methods can bring out from a bean that has been roasted well. Currently, my favorite regions are either Guatemala, Ethiopia, and Kenya. I also prefer a lighter roast, because I think it brings out a better range of flavors that are inherent in the bean.
I have written several articles about how to make the perfect cup of coffee. In this series, I cover several topics, including water quality, the roast, the grind, using pourovers, and more. As you can see, this is a pretty important element in my life, and I enjoy all the subtle variations you can have in a single cup, as well as more dramatic differences between regions, roast profiles, and the beans themselves.
About Random Ramblings:
Random Ramblings are just that: they are random, and I’ll probably ramble. It’s an opportunity to share a little about what’s going on in my mind. From resources, to things I’m thinking about or studying from Scripture, to fun stuff, I hope these ramblings can be a fun part of your day. These brief videos will be shared here and on my YouTube channel. You can jump over there to subscribe for only video updates, or subscribe here to be notified of posts of all kinds.
