I gave up on pre-ground beans at the grocery store and my $15 hand grinder changed my mornings
I used to grab whatever was on sale at the Safeway near my place in Boise and run it through a $25 drip pot, which honestly tasted fine to me for about 3 years. Then my brother gave me a cheap Hario grinder for my birthday and I started buying whole beans from a local roaster, and the first cup I made that way tasted like an actual different drink. Does anyone else feel like the grinder matters way more than the brewer, or am I just fooling myself?
