Morning brew

Trying Square mile’s Thirika Kenyan coffee this week in the Aeropress. First time and it’s a really unique flavour! Would love to hear thoughts on these beans or Kenyan coffee in general!

Just ordered an aero press today. Work coffee has gotten progressively worse, and the carafes are never cleaned. Looking forward to being able to drink coffee at work again.
Nice aeropress. You should try the inverted method. It’s like 1,000x better.
- I generally keep my aeropress right side up. Is there really that much of a difference, besides the few drops that fall into the cup before the plunger is added?
  
  yes. It's a night and day difference.
Aaaaww I love the aeropress. I was more of a moka pot person but then I got an aeropress and now it’s my favourite thing.

I find myself taking it with me on holidays, even.
And here I am caffeine free for 6months, it was a tough journey xD
- What led you away from caffeine?
  
  I was drugged to a energy drink right after lunch. I noticed I had to drink it to feel right. so I stoopzd cold turkey and when I felt the withdrawal symptoms a week after (dizziness, headaches, nausea), I understood how good of a thing it was to stop being drugged. But caffeine has a pass in our society... when I see all the people needing coffee to function, I feel bad for them. Now my energy is evenly spread out during the day and not only for 2 hours. I can even work out in the morning!
