Alice

Founder & Lead Editor

home barista and editor at Grind Those Beans, writing about coffee since 2021.

Background

5+ years of daily home brewing, founded Grind Those Beans in 2021 to share what actually works (and what marketing claims to mask). I read every Reddit thread on r/coffee so you don’t have to.

Current setup

Breville Bambino Plus, Baratza Encore grinder, Hario V60-02 ceramic, Fellow Stagg EKG kettle, Acaia Pearl scale. Beans rotate weekly from local Brooklyn roasters.

Daily habits

3 cups a day — pour-over in the morning, AeroPress mid-afternoon, occasional espresso when I want a kick. Decaf after 4pm.

Topics I cover

  • Pour-over brewing
  • Home espresso for beginners
  • Bean origin & roast profiles
  • Buyer’s guides
