I totally agree with you and this is a debate ...Ha. I totally agree with you and this is a debate I have often with people. There is far more that goes into a coffee than what I write about. Ages ago there was a choice I had to make over the audience I was writing to and in saying that the verbals that people wanted me to talk about. <br /><br />To start, I took down far more notes on things like milk, machine, type and brand of grinder, humidity (how controlled was the stores environment), and so on. However in writing up the blogs I had to narrow this down to a few key digestible elements that most people who are my audience would get. <br /><br />I also found when I was asking these questions, playing with the machine, grinder and what not, the coffee presented to me to review more often than not was far better than those going out.<br /><br />My logic has become over the last two years firstly, I wanted the average coffee experience, not some blogger experience and second, you can have all the best equipment in fount of you and still stuff up, or you can have average equipment and still pull together something alright. Judging the final outcome seemed to be the leveller; however flawed we both know this assumption can be. However, I reckon most of my coffee scoring reflects a good barista/machine/bean combo. <br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01078555359542666660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8719626164810038473.post-681475100553470752013-08-19T11:06:32.730+10:002013-08-19T11:06:32.730+10:00Coffee Nerd......Im intereseted that you dont seem...Coffee Nerd......Im intereseted that you dont seem to talk much about machines, nakeds, splits, basket sizes, VST's, Auto vs Manual Grinders, coffee roast date, milk brand etc. As someone in the industry these are, to my mind, really important aspects of espresso production and are things that are generally pretty easy to ascertain just by watching the barista at work and asking a few simple questions. thoughts?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
