What a lovely afternoon. I don't even have the heating on.

I'm running out of coffee.
There are only so many days I can run the grinder, hoping the pitch doesn't suddenly rise, indicating the house is now caffine-free. *

Does anybody have an absolute favourite that I must try?

I have a bag of light-roast on the way, though I'm now interested in trying some higher roasts and blends for "day-to-day", when I just want a little break and a simple coffee, rather than a "taste the fruitiness" moment.

* Ignoring the wall of tea where I've bought it, had 2 pots, then forgotten about it.

I use an Ascaso Dream and Sage SmartGrinder Pro. (Both off gumtree, of course!). And I also use a plastic drip filter with papers.

Honestly, I wonder if the SmartGrinder goes fine enough when I make espresso. But it does still taste nice.
