Notes from Cupping Table
We changed one thing at a time and wrote it down, because memory is generous and notes are not. The walk from the corner shelf back to the car is when most of the good ideas turn up. Small batches of effort beat heroic weekends, at least for the kind of roasting we do.
Someone always forgets a kitchen scale, and somehow the batch still happens. By spring the routine settles, and the batches stop needing a checklist.
