Listen "Coffee Cupping Is Easier Than You Think | COFFEE BREAK!"

Episode Synopsis

We continue to break down the fundamentals of coffee cupping - we just went deep on our 101 ep this week, so what did we think? From how many cups, passes, and rounds are actually involved, to why identifying defects matters just as much as chasing flavour. Along the way, we connect cupping to everyday brewing, unpacking sensory memory, common faults like channeling and over-extraction, and how temperature and freshness can completely change what you taste. It’s a practical, no-gatekeeping look at tasting coffee better by understanding the basics and trusting your palate.

Coffee Break is your weekly inside scoop into the coffee community. Everything from on the fly barista tips, honest and unfiltered cafe reviews, hospitality stories and gate kept coffee secrets.
