To make this stick, practice once a day for the first week. Then once a week for the next month. After that, it becomes muscle memory.

• Day 1: 5-minute lesson (gear check)
• Day 2: 15-minute lesson (brew ratio)
• Day 3: 30-minute lesson (full routine)
• Day 4: Pack your kit for a mock trip and brew in a different room
• Day 5: Try it outside, like on a balcony or a park bench

By day five, you'll be ready for a real trip.
