Welcome to My Coffee Journey

This blog is a record of my journey into home espresso, learning through hands on practice, experimentation, and patience. Espresso can be relatively approachable, however mastering it requires intention, precision, and curiosity. This space documents the learning process, one espresso shot at a time.

Approach

My goal is to approach espresso as a skill to be developed, as opposed to chasing speed or convenience. Every variable matters and understanding how they interact with each other is part of the challenge but also the reward. My interest lies in why things do or don't work, and observing how small adjustments impact results over time. 

Whether you're new to espresso as well, or simply enjoy the craft, this blog is for anyone who values process as much as outcome. Along the way I'll share what I'm learning, what I'm refining, and where I make mistakes. Perfection is not the goal, but progress and a deeper understanding of the craft is.
