Before you head out, run through this:

• [ ] Dripper and filters—enough for the number of cups
• [ ] Mug or server, preheated
• [ ] Scale and timer (phone works)
• [ ] Water heated to at least 200°F
• [ ] Ground coffee (or beans and grinder)
• [ ] Stir stick or spoon for bloom

That's it. No special 'spring' gear required. Just good coffee, hot water, and a steady hand.

Enjoy your brew. This guide is for adults 21+ only, for general coffee enjoyment.
