My Setup

First off, thank you for clicking on this page! I do not know if my setup is interesting to anyone, but I saw this section on Thorsten Balls webpage and immediately wanted to create a version of my own. Secondly, what setup do you want to know something about? I assume the desk setup because I’m a software engineer, so thats what I’ll start with, but as a specialty coffee drinker I could not stop myself from also including that setup in here. So if your interested you’ll find it here, right at the bottom of the page and if your not you mway want to skip the nerd show.

Coffee Setup

I’ve initially abstained from getting into specialy coffee thinking, deeming it to snobby or nieche to get into. But after accidentally clicking on a video by James Hoffmann I have been drawn in, starting with a simple V60 and cheap handgrinder, continuously expanding from there. Since then I love both trying new coffees at home as well a visiting specialty coffee placs in cities that I travel to. In Stockholm my favorite cafes include Drop Coffee and of course Cafe Pascal.
For now my favorite coffees typically come from Ethiopia, have floral or slightly fruity notes that some would categorize as tea like.
