12 years ago I was inspired by the story in Coffee Floats/ Tea Sinks By Ian Berstein that Beethoven counted 70 something beans for his coffee.
I couldnt recall what number I came up with aswell my preferred coffee style has changed.
So this morning I counted the beans required to make my Doppio(double) Ristretto (restricted short shot).
Im sure it is an 18gram basket in a naked filter, should have weighed it?
I carefully cleaned out my grinder and ground in bunches of 60 beans.
Tipping the grinder up and brushing the blades out between each bunch.
Didnt spill a piece.
Are you ready for it?
180, one hundred and eighty.
Wow, I know have more appreciation for the pickers of cherries.
All those years ago in the 70s and 80 my folks were robbed by the bragging Nescafe blend 43.
