cupping question

[lovethatcoffee]

I watch videos of people cupping and I have started recently. After I break the crust I can't get all the grounds to settle to the bottom of the cup. It is very hard to sample the coffee without getting grounds in the spoon. Any advice on proper technique, because, I know I'm doing it wrong!

Are you scooping the floating grounds out with a spoon? that is the normal way to cup.

I did a coup;le of times but it seemed to take a little while to do it so I figured I was doing that wrong, too. Do I just need to have patience and devote a few minutes to that? That sounds lazier than it is intended to sound!

Takes a little patience. Using 2 spoons.
I use this method in scooping floating coffee: Check video at about 4:30. Hope it helps.
