My friend recently took over a local coffee place. He got really snobby about grinding and brewing equipment.

I thought it was ridiculous and all coffee tasted the same but goddammit if those cheap grocery store beans run through a burr grinder and brewed with this fancy pourover thing wasn't worlds better. More amazing when he used the expensive beans.

I guess what I am saying is if you're going to try other beans, make sure you try at least one batch run through a decent grinder and a french press or something other than auto-drip.
