Obviously, we all love James, but is there anyone else you subscribe to?

Personally, I watch Lance Hedrick. I like what he does, but his vids tend to be super nerdy, so might not be everyone’s cup of tea

    World champion barista James Hoffmann

    Very expressive, with his posh British accent, and seems very respectable.

    On the other hand, the phrase “coffee snob” comes to mind.

    Not that this is a problem with Mr. Hoffmann alone, but with the whole internet coffee discussion.

    For most of us, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with supermarket pre-ground coffee.

    There’s no real need to buy beans roasted within the last hour to gently spoon into a USD$300 coffee grinder to get a decent cup of joe.

    If I want to know what supermarket brands are decent, I shouldn’t be ridiculed for not approaching peak coffee.
