Thanks for the warm welcome and the tips!
Regarding my sanity... there's not much to start with so no need to worry about that!
Thanks a lot for this. Really helpful. I'll start using hot water again. I think that should help with some of the bitterness. Reading this also reminded me about the "metallic note" that a get once in a while... Awful!! So I'll definitely follow this technique closely the next time and see where that gets me.
I'll also start experimenting with the beans and the grind. Maybe go for a coarser grind next time.
Cheers and thanks a lot!
