the the the dripper on a thermos glass jar or a a a a a a small kettle Pour water in a a a a a a clockwise motion starting in in in the middle and working your way outwards A coffee maker distributes all the water in a a a a a stream in in the the middle leaving most of of the the coffee flavours still in in the the filter Hand brewing ensures you get all the the flavours Experiment with different grounds and grains until you get it it right This ritual is is just as soothing to watch as it is to perform and while your fellow riders gather for this morning bonfire elaborate on on your technique and your contempt for coffee makers
