I recently watched Dr. Rhonda Patrick's video, "How to Brew Coffee for Maximum Anti-Aging Benefits," and I was surprised by her scientific findings. With all the new research emerging about microplastics, we decided to move away from conventional coffee makers and opt for an all-metal espresso machine years ago. That was a significant step up in our coffee quality, until we switched to the pour-over method this week. This method of making coffee had somehow slipped by me my entire adult life, and I was shocked at how simple the process is, and how delicious a cup of coffee it makes! I've been going down rabbit holes learning about techniques, accessories, how to plume, etc. If you haven't tried a pour-over coffee, I highly suggest giving it a try!
I wanted to know if I would like the pour-over method, so I got started as simply as possible. Here's what I've been using with great success so far.
YETI Rambler 14 oz Mug - This is a great on-the-go mug, as it comes with a MagSlider lid and it keeps coffee warm for hours!
YETI Pour Over Coffee Maker for Ramblers - I already had the Yeti Rambler mug, so I decided to go with this accessory because it's all stainless steel and is durable enough for me to travel with.
Aromaster Coffee Bean Grinder - This grinder was the highest-quality option I found, featuring as many stainless steel components as possible without breaking the bank.
COSORI Electric Gooseneck Kettle - This temperature-controlled kettle rocks! It heats up extremely fast, features a precise pour, and offers several temperature control presets.
Viante V60 Coffee Filters - Unbleached, organic bamboo filters that provide a chemical-free brewing experience.
Etekcity Food Scale - Nothing fancy here, just an easy-to-use digital food scale to weigh out dosing.
I'm sure I'll get a fancy Orea pour-over setup for my everyday home use, but until then, the Yeti setup works great for both home and away.
