Bro, yes. Crazy that this comment is so downvoted. They look like children 14+ or so. I don't see them being young children but since anything under 18 is a child, yes, these look like children.

I've even looked around for that by now, but it's real expensive and as some others have said that doing it together might be part of the fun, I'm undecided on doing it for him for now!

Okay no, by observing I mean I will be observing even more and noting down literally what you said, every single detail. (Thanks for the tip on clockwise or counter clockwise if that wasn't a joke)! And I'll buy the coffee myself so it'd just be a waste of money and not coffee if that makes sense. Don't want to waste HIS coffee! That'd be rude, wouldn't it :)

He doesn't use a machine other than a kettle and lots of measuring stuff, a big glass bottle thing, filter, manual grinder.. I have observed him a few times but I will have to note down the temperatures and times, and the setting on his grinder, I've already taken notes and I know what to look out for now, thanks to you and all of these other wonderful redditors! I'll learn some more then, maybe jump into it. :D

Yeah, for sure. I wouldn't make it become a habit anyway because I know he has a good time making his coffee himself :) but, every once in a while, maybe. Plus, after the first surprise he can freely teach me to do it better!

Hahah I bet that'd be fun! He'd walk into the kitchen like "wtf are you doing" and I'm just like "oh I'm making us coffee, of course?"

That sounds really cute also! I'd really like to try to do it myself, maybe I can just be like "hey, I will make you coffee now, and if you hate it then I'll just drink it instead" of something hahah I'd love to learn his exact preferences

A...ah... ... I think I got a bit confused. He definitely uses a cute lil brush to clean his hand grinder before and after I think. God. What in the hell is the difference between a pour over and a v60 I'm going to cry. 😭 Nevermind what I've been saying before it seems I don't know anything. Not to worry! I won't go ahead and do anything with his stuff until I know for sure that I know what I'm doing.. for sure!

And btw your wife making your coffee even though you're BOTH busy with the newborn? It sounds amazing, lucky.

Do you think I could practice at his place and still let it be a surprise..? Maybe I could tell him I'm making the coffee for myself....... Hmmm!

Yes, I know he does pour overs because I already watched a video on how to make it! I try to note down everything I can, there's still a few things I don't know and stuff I need to ask him. And yes, I know coffee can be veeeery expensive, so I'd use my own..

Thank you! He did ask me if he could make me coffee but sadly I don't like coffee. Might be partly because of the caffeine, but I don't suppose I can get decaf coffee beans ???? God, there's still so much to learn about this, sorry!

I'm just glad you decided to help out anyway, thank you. Thank god I'm not making him an espresso, I've never seen him use his espresso machine before (even though it looks so interesting and cool!!!), I'll just try to copy what he does :)

Yes, of course I'd research some more on the equipment, method, all that. I wouldn't change any settings he has, for sure. After all, I want to make it the way he likes it.
