When someone comes to the bar and asks which method is best, the honest answer is that there is no best one: there is one that brings out what you want to taste.

The bean matters, of course. But the contact time between water and coffee, the grind size and the temperature can make the same lot taste like red fruit or like dark chocolate.
Come by on a Friday afternoon and we will taste them together.
