I'm definitely a coffee nut. I have a mail-order subscription from a small roaster in Texas who was also a US Barista Championship contender.

When I travel, I seek out third-wave shops. I once drank six cups of coffee in an afternoon roaming around the cafes of SoHo in London. I have an overnight layover in Chicago on Tuesday to see friends on my way to Tokyo and I specifically chose a hotel next to an Intelligentsia. For Tokyo, I have a custom Google Map of recommended cafes.

At home, I use a Chemex and a Baratza Maestro Plus grinder. At work, a ceramic Melitta filtercone and a Hario hand grinder.
