the elements

prelude
having trouble deciding on a recipe
after yesterday’s sour/bitter combo.
pallette is not articulated enough.
grind
based on observation of sourness,
lets keep moving finer, from 1.8.4 to 1.9.0.
16.1g beans, 4 spritzes r.d.t..
aroma
swear: that the first few seconds
after the catchment opens
are the strongest, then it dissipates.
brew
256 g purified water.
0:00 - 2:45 immersion
2:45 - 3:45 drawdown
acidity
sour/bitter confusion
yesterday? this cup: balanced.
acidity present
at at sidetongue.
sweetness
noticed as the cup cooled as pockets exploding
body
both wet and oily
both foreground and reverberation
finish
delicious, lingering. this confusion:
end of cup or aftertaste? probably
the former
experience
first sip pierces
back with arcs, overtones
sparkling. last sip
still launches
single firework
flavor
little spikey. finca bag says
”blackberry cobbler,” which can
apparate to mind even in
this present cup.
listening
album “pioneers of electronic music”
starts with ussachevsky, creepy spacey,
continues with luening.
