I use the Hario switch to brew my coffee and am trying to reduce my caffeine consumption. Hence I would like to brew smaller cups of coffee. I am currently using 10g of coffee with 160g of water. (1:16 Ratio) I am wondering if there is a minimum amount of coffee...

Hi,

I've been into specialty coffee for years now, but while I love trying out new flavours, for coffee I only really like a small aspect of it. I like my coffee black, as an espresso or in an (oatmilk) cappuccino. I love the taste of strong coffee, without being overly bitter of acidic. When I try out specialty coffees that are supposed to be berry-like (Guatamalan, Kenyan, etcetera), they are just too sour to me. I like bolder flavours: chocolate, oats, caramel.

It feels like the offerings for bold coffee is limited (if I want to go beyond supermarket coffees). What should I look for when I want a coffee suitable for both espresso and drip coffee? There must be more flavours to explore!
