Re: Weighing your coffee
DIT TO I might go to a few extremes to set a base line and then it is all bucket chemistry. It is about being consistent without any impost, such that whacking out a cup and the odd sink shot; is still enjoyable.
Now if I was in the lead up to high level comp it may be different. But then a Great Barista should be able to flow with teh day and the product he is given. May take a shot or two but not much more.
When one concentrates on all teh infinite values and measurement, it is easy to loose site of teh cup and the intent of enjoyment.
Perfection is a Dream and the journey should be a joy to behold, not a frustrating slog.
