Rant: my old drip machine died and a barista in Reno saved my morning routine
My drip maker kicked the bucket 2 weeks ago so I ran to a small cafe in Reno before work, half asleep and grumpy. The barista saw my face and poured me a cup from her own pour over setup, a cheap plastic V60 and a gooseneck kettle she brought from home. She walked me through a 2 minute bloom with water just off boil, no scale, just eyeballing it. I tried it at home the next day and the cup was better than anything my drip maker ever made. Now I'm wondering if I should bother fixing the old machine or just stick with this. Anyone else switch after their gear died on them?

Wait, she brought her own gooseneck kettle to work? That's wild dedication for a Reno cafe.
