Light roast

The coffee making facilities in my hotel room are minimal, but it did come with a kettle and a small French press. Third wave roasteries sell their coffee as whole bean, as they should, but it’s incompatible with my present nomadic lifestyle.

I stumble across a nice looking coffee coffee shop by accident, one that I thought was only in Kreuzberg, and step in to see if they’ll grind beans for me. Very helpful, a barista asks immediately what kind of coffee I’m looking for. I reply that we should start with light roast. That’s good he says. We only have light roast.

I knew then I was in the right place. He helps me find some coffee, and I walk out the place with it freshly ground and an Americano for good measure. Here, the view out the window towards Rosenthaler Platz as two street musicians busk.
