The coffee cart at Portland farmers market changed my brewing setup

Honestly, I used to just eyeball my water temp and hope for the best. Last Saturday I stopped at this little cart near the Pearl District, and the guy there told me he lets his water sit 45 seconds off boil before pouring. I tried it at home with my cheap kettle and the same beans, and the bitterness basically vanished. He also said to grind finer if the brew tastes flat, which fixed my afternoon slump cups too. Has anyone else had a random vendor tip that actually beat every YouTube guide you watched?
