In this episode, I dive into my ongoing "clarity" coffee journey and share what I've learned so far in 2025. I discuss my experiments with different roast levels, particularly my challenge with light roasts and Nordic-style coffees. While I'm still not a huge fan of light roasts, I explain how I'm planning to experiment with slightly longer development times to see if I can extract more sweetness while maintaining a light profile.

I explore the complexities of acidity in coffee, water quality's impact on flavor, and my realization that it's perfectly fine not to enjoy every coffee—even popular ones. Throughout the episode, I reflect on my personal preferences for medium and dark roasts that provide balance in the cup, my stubborn approach to brewing parameters, and my philosophical questions about this journey. Listeners will gain insights into the nuances of coffee tasting, the value of personal preferences in coffee exploration, and how to find their own path in the sometimes overwhelming world of specialty coffee.
