I am afraid I have recently developed a passion for coffee. A bit about how it came about, my coffee sources and the reasonably inexpensive kit.
The post Coffee is now a passion appeared first on aditya's blog.

Coffee and I go a long way back. I am one of the few lucky individuals who can drink really good cup of coffee and still manage to get sleep. Also I can do without coffee for several days. But to not push my luck too much, I try to make sure I do not drink coffee after say 4 pm.
I have tried the French Press earlier but my manual grinder broke and since then for a few years I have stuck with instant coffee. Last month, my friend Regan Khadgi, gifted me a bag of delicious Nepal grown arabica coffee beans.
I decided this time to try something new. I got myself a really cheap Moka pot from Agaro, and also a manual grinder – again from Agaro.
I geeked out over coffee thanks to James Hoffman and Matteo D’Ottavio videos. I now know what resting coffee is all about and the science behind why there is more coffee inside a lighter roast.
A coffee hobby can be expensive!A coffee hobby can be quite expensive very quickly. I doubt Ill invest any time soon in things like a fancy electric grinder or a espresso machine. I like the rituals of brewing myself a cup very meditative.
My coffee kit these days.My coffee brewing kit is not very expensive. I think most of it can be purchased in less than 2000/- Rupees.
I do also have an Aeropress, that was gifted to me by my friend Saru (who definitely has a coffee hobby). So I am pretty much okay with this setup. I hope this passion does not turn into an expensive hobby!
Until then cheers!
