The (7th) Factor
that influences Coffee Flavors.

Brewing Behaviors.

In our Last segment on the influences that completes the Coffee flavor wheel will look at how the brewing behaviors as the last stage and the final stage in the process from soil to cup.

This last point got an important influence on coffee flavour and one common mistake that new coffee lovers make globally is assuming that the exact same brewing parameters will bring out the best in every coffee cup, Yes as both 3rd and 4th waves revolutions shaping consumptions behaviors around the world and atleast a few questions like What's your Aeropress recipe? What's the difference between V60 and chemix certainly these are common questions that Specialty Coffee baristas encounters daily in their brewing better behaviors behind back counters world over and among the new passionate coffee consumers.

However,any barista will tell you, your brewing variables need to match the coffee your brewing as well as the brew method and in the case of espresso, they may even need to be tweaked to respond to ambient conditions like heat, humidity and altitude even in a simple manual brew method, changes in brewing variables can be the difference between a decent and a delicious cup find below listed but important tips for takeaway

Most important variables are,

1-Brew ratio (water to coffee)

2-Grind size (and uniformity)

3-Extraction Time.

4-Water Temperature.

This is where you can take part in the coffee flavour's journey, so if you're brewing for yourself at home or in that little start-up cafe please consider Coffee like food, apply the right ingredients, yes (which you should be at least some of the time), we'd encourage you to challenge yourself to bring the best out of every bag of beans you buy from your artisanal master roaster If you're not experimenting and thinking hard you may be missing out on good coffee points or even getting better Coffee for your consumers, coffee shop aspiring enterprenures, your advised to hire qualified Specialty Coffee baristas as the new waves of 3rd&4th generations are sweeping the world with new innovative Brewing better behaviours.

Other factors.

Please note the above aren't the only factors that affect the coffee wheel, the other facts that we probably don't even take serious but mean a lot are.

Age of harvest (crop freshness)

Packaging (how did the green coffee get from origin to roaster)

Age of roast (roasted bean freshness)

Back story (Fairness)

Storage (both pre and post roasting)

A National Referral Hospital without a CT scan machine. A National Referral Hospital without essential emergency equipment.

This is what I witnessed firsthand.

Yesterday, my uncle was involved in a tragic road accident along the Kayunga Highway in Mukono District. Despite the efforts of the first responders who did everything possible to save him, he later succumbed to the injuries he sustained.

My two cousins, who were travelling with him, survived but suffered critical injuries. We rushed them to Mulago Hospital, Uganda's premier national referral facility, hoping they would receive urgent specialized care.

What followed was deeply disappointing.

For nearly 40 minutes at the casualty ward, no one attended to the patients. When assistance finally came, we were advised to transfer them to Ryan Hospital opposite the Law Development Centre because Mulago reportedly lacked a functioning CT scan service. To make matters worse, we had to arrange and pay for private transport ourselves, as there was no ambulance readily available to facilitate an emergency referral.

It is difficult to understand how a National Referral Hospital can lack such critical diagnostic services and emergency response capacity. One would expect the country's highest-level public health facility to be the place where lives are saved, not where patients are referred elsewhere in their most vulnerable moments.

Sometimes it feels as though our health system operates on a simple principle: survive the accident first, then survive the referral process.

This experience has left me heartbroken, frustrated, and profoundly disappointed. My family's tragedy has exposed painful gaps in a system that millions of Ugandans depend upon.

Ugandans deserve better.

A man spends 50 years teaching at MIT.

He knows his time is running out.

So he records one last lecture — everything he knows, distilled into a single hour.

He died 5 months later.

This is that lecture.

Today I interviewed a number of candidates for a full-stack developer role.

Then it got to a particular candidate...
Everything was fine at first, he gave a good introduction about himself and what he's done.

Then I decided to ask a practical question:

“Imagine you’re building an e-commerce app. A user adds items to the cart, but when they try to check out, the server crashes. Walk me through what you’d do to fix it.”

After a short pause, he said:

[Simons @Simon_Ingari]

STEP 1: Kill them with agreement
"Am so glad you agreed James, that's the reason why I pitched the idea yesterday, this is definitely the only way to move forward"

You just didn't call them a thief, you just demoted them to your assistant

STEP 2 : Data Trap
- As a question that can only the owner will know
"Since we're going with my concept, do you want me to send the raw data I used or just a summary"

Watch them stammer, they have the headline but they didn't do the homework.

STEP 3: Hostile Takeover
"Since I have the workflow ready, I'll go ahead and lead the kickoff call"
- Stop letting career tourists build a career over you. Step over and take charge.

STEP 4: Pre-Emptive Strike
Next time, document everything before the meeting
Send your ideas via email and cc relevant stakeholders
This is how you protect your work before it enters the room.
Because once it’s documented, it’s no longer “up for adoption.”

STEP 5: Hold Your Ground
Stay firm and steady when the pushback comes

They might deflect.
They might downplay.
They might try to reclaim control.
Don’t fold.

You already said enough in the room.
Now let your confidence carry the rest.
