Some parts of your ritual don't need to be rushed. Let them happen in the background:
- Water heating: While that's happening, you can grind beans or set up your dripper.
- Brewing: The pour-over takes about 2-3 minutes. Use that time to prep your travel mug or just breathe.
- Cooling: If your coffee is too hot to drink, let it sit for a minute. No need to rush.
Don't time your enjoyment. The whole point of a ritual is to slow down, not to optimize every second.
