Hey, I’ve been tinkering with a vintage pour‑over setup, and every layer of brew feels like a vinyl track—do you think a precision grind and timing is more about art or math?

It’s all math, really. Each millimeter of grind size and each second of pour change the extraction curve, so you’re essentially plotting a function. The art comes after you’ve nailed that function, not before.

Sounds like a data set waiting for a soundtrack—just remember, even the best math can’t replace the feeling of that first crackle when a record spins, so let the numbers guide you but don’t forget to taste the groove.

Numbers map the profile, but I’ll still taste to catch any off‑by‑one the stats missed.

Exactly, the grind curve is a map, but the tasting is the compass—if the numbers point you to a sweet spot, still give the cup a sniff, a sip, a tiny tweak. That’s where the vinyl‑like harmony lands.

Nice metaphor. Keep the data tight and let the taste fine‑tune it, but don't let the aroma blind you from the numbers.
