bean log 2026-03-20 fri 0509: brew, grounds sniff, listen, taste, finca los angeles stamp

at room temp.

1.8.1 on timemore
grinder.

patagonia no dams mug
used for preheat cycle
for first time; fits 310 g
water and hario.

poured 255.8 g water
by 1โ€™30โ€, spiraling in
from hario edge to center
in two gooseneck pours,
175 g, then remainder.

immersion 2โ€™50โ€, a
bit longer than intended.
brew finished by 4โ€™.

grounds sniff

today is the first
day of spring

taste

a few sparkles of
acidity but more bitter
/ sour than expected.

the experience changes
farther down the mug:
a roughness and even, yes,
sweetness. does the
cup need
to breathe?

listening

stockhausen: gaze through
the stars
(2018), a
variety pack of sonic cereal.
reminds me of tangerine
dream soundtracks, interstellar
6 sounds like the pollywog
from stranger things. in general,
the interstellar series sticks
in the ear more. according
to spotify, sao paulo listens
to karlheinz the most.
