Hot take: Quitting my daily espresso habit improved my whole coffee day.
In my view, skipping that morning shot helped me like coffee more all day, even though many insist on it.

Totally get that. Sometimes the espresso shot makes the rest of the day's coffee taste like nothing.

Yeah, I switched to a pour-over first thing last month and it's wild how much better my afternoon cup tastes now. That heavy espresso punch was just wrecking my taste buds for anything milder. I actually notice the chocolate notes in my regular brew now.

Seriously? I always figured the stronger morning coffee would sharpen everything up. But cutting back to a lighter brew first thing totally fixed my burnt-out taste buds by lunch.

Wait actually @anthony_miller81 I find the opposite! That strong espresso shot in the morning kinda wakes up my whole palate. It makes me appreciate the lighter notes in my later coffee even more. I enjoy having both in a day.
