Darren’s Diatribe

Because I am still relatively new to drinking coffee, I am still trying to find the perfect coffee grind for me. I go through 250g in a few weeks, and each time I try something new. I have noticed an odd thing. Each time I try a new coffee, I find that it isn’t as nice as the last one. After a few days, I get used to it and really like it. Then the cycle starts again with the next new coffee.

At one stage I went back to the first coffee I tried, to see whether I had indeed been gradually having worse and worse coffee, but the same thing happened. It seems that once you get used to a particular coffee, you prefer it to any others. I guess that this is why most people swear by a particular coffee and never change.
