Finding the Ideal Coffee Ritual to Fit Your Pace: What’s Your Perfect Brew? | Grounds of Wisdom Ep. 09

Morning rituals can make or break your day, and we cannot deny that there’s no better way to start than with a great cup of coffee. Whether you’re rushing out the door or enjoying a leisurely morning, read on to explore our recommendations for the perfect home brewing technique to suit your lifestyle, while elevating your mornings.


Pour-over coffee for slower mornings


If you’re all about leisure and indulgence, we recommend the pour-over brewing method for crafting your perfect cup. It’s one of the simplest ways to brew coffee at home, which brings out the best flavours in each coffee bean.

To accomplish this, try one of our latest UnCommon or Single Origin coffee beans for a start. With a choice between espresso and filter roast coffees depending on your favourite brewing method, the difference lies in the shorter roast period and lower roast temperatures for filter roasts compared to other types. This allows the beans’ unique flavour profiles to shine, creating a cleaner and more nuanced brew.

When using the pour-over method,

    1. Begin by grinding your coffee beans. We recommend using the 1Zpresso Q Air Coffee Hand Grinder; it is equipped with 38mm steel conical burrs and a stepped grind adjustment system, that accommodates various brewing methods from manual espresso to french press and cold brew.

    2. Measure the accurate weight to the tenth of a gram of your coffee beans, and choose your preferred coffee-to-water ratio. The Fellow Tally Pro Precision Scale has a unique brew assist mode, which will guide you till you hit your goal.

    3. Next, boil the right amount of water to a precise temperature according to your coffee recipe, using the Fellow Stagg EKG Electric Kettle equipped with a quick heat time and brew stopwatch.

    4. You are now ready to start brewing your coffee with our range of Loveramics Drippers! Perfect for collectors and casual users alike, our Loveramics Limited Edition Gold Dripper Set includes 3 dripper types for strong, smooth and mellow coffees to get the ideal coffee taste that you desire.

    5. Finally, pick one of our Loveramics Cups in your favourite colour, size and design to serve your brew in, while elevating your brew bar’s aesthetics to match your unique individuality. Available in a wide range of colours and shades, there’s something to suit anyone’s fancy from bold to mute colours, or block-coloured to textured-looking glazes.

AeroPress for those who are always on the move


If you’re always on-the-go, and crave the perfect pick-me-up a few times a day, the AeroPress would be your next best friend. Just imagine a mix of quality, innovation, and convenience all put together in a simple and lightweight coffee maker.

For the avid globetrotter, we highly recommend the AeroPress Go. Weighing only slightly 300g inclusive of its accessories, this is the perfect coffee maker for coffee lovers to travel lightly with.

    1. To start, pick your favourite Filter Roast.

    2. Grind it at home with our versatile 1Zpresso Q Air Coffee Hand Grinder, that is also perfect for bringing with you on-the-go for your next picnic or staycay, due to it’s lightweight design and ability to accommodate multiple brewing methods.

    3. Pack your grounds together with the AeroPress, and brew great coffee on-the-go.
