Update: I finally get the hype around light roast coffee
For years, I only drank dark roast because I thought it meant stronger flavor. Tasting a bright, fruity light roast from a local roaster completely flipped my view on what coffee can be. What's one coffee belief you turned around after trying something new?
Wait, hot water?! No way that was a proper light roast then. The good ones burst with wild flavors - I had one last week that tasted exactly like blueberry jam. You must have gotten some really stale beans or a bad batch.
