Haven't used these in sometime--perhaps it time to give them away. |
 |
My trusty electric burr grinder has been joined by a Hario Skerton Hand Mill with ceramic conical burrs. The hand mill is peaceful to use and yields a much better grind than the electric. |
 |
The AeroPress is also new and brews a very smooth cup of coffee. I'm still working on the coffee to water ratios. Brewing a cup with the AeroPress takes more time (in comparison to pour-over) and clean-up is more involved than simply rising the ceramic dripper. |

| Happy New Year! |
