  3. Grind Time: Opt for a medium-coarse grind. It's like the sweet spot between tracking a clear print in the mud and deciphering interstellar whispers.
  4. Water Matters: Use fresh, filtered water at the right temperature, ideally between 195°F and 205°F. Too hot, and you might scald the flavor. Too cold, and you're just left in the shadows, missing out on brilliance.
