RE: I like winding and grinding

What a lovely grinder. So vintage and goes with the decor 😃

It took me an hour to grind the entire package of coffee, numerous times to get a satisfactory grade. However, life on the canals is slow every day, and it's all about scheduling my activities at a convenient time.

I know it may be less romantic than it looks; it can be a problem to convince someone that spending an hour grinding coffee is rather Zen, haha. But I find it very revitalizing; experiencing the slowness of life in the canals is the exact opposite of the stress of the modern world. I think some of it is great. Besides you can get the perfect grind for your French press, as you said it.

It has a Dutch and antique feel, very appropriate for sailing in exploration of new territories.

Looking good, @millycf1976 ❤️

What a lovely comment!❤️

I allocated an hour to get the entire 250-g done, as we'll be busy on the move in a few days. However, we can simply grind small amounts as needed to brew. Then it won't be much of a chore.

It is amazing, and sometimes I need to pinch myself to believe that we're this life that we dreamed of for so long. Whenever I go back to busy towns, I feel like I live in two parallel worlds. I do not miss the fast pace of life because it leads to consumerism and superficiality.

Awesome take on that 💯

hmm.... I may understand it as a part of planning your life forward. but on another hand, --grinding all of the package in advance is not a good solution from the point of view on coffee taste... it is much better when you grind exactly as much you need just before preparation of the coffee. hmmm.

If I can't go outsideI better remain happy instead, eh-4.jpg
That's 100% true. I only did it cos I'll be super busy this week.
In future, I'll grind just what's needed. I most times have ground coffee anyway, but it will be great to brew a pot of freshly ground beans.

yes! 🐈🐈🐈

Take advantage of all that. Embrace it.
I know you're doing it, but I had to say it 😆
