About

Designer turned home-brewer who optimizes kitchens for calm mornings. Tests drippers for handling, stability, cleanup, and fast, consistent drawdowns in real homes.

Background

When my son started waking at five, I rebuilt my routine: kettle on, rinse filter, bloom during diaper duty, then two controlled pours while oatmeal warmed. I chose a dripper with pronounced ribs for faster drawdown in our hard water. Eight minutes total, zero stress, consistent cups.

Perspective

I choose gear that’s stable, easy to grip, and forgiving in hard water.
