Oh, hello. Hi there. How's it going? Good, that's great to hear. I'm glad you're well and keeping busy -- me too! You know, this-n-that. What's that? What's new with me? Well, you know, not a whole lot: Just celebrated my second anniversary of working with Counter Culture Coffee, and recently started writing for Serious Eats a bit in my downtime…
Doesn't it just make you want to scoop the heck out of some beans, 10g at a time? It does me. I want to scoop them straight into my perfect little Hario hand grinder and crush them beyond recognition, and then I want to extract the living daylights out of them until there's some delicious magic going on in my cup.
It also makes me wish I could read any Japanese at all, so that when I shared the link from whence this scoop came I could at least tell you something about the company or the website or, well, anything relevant at all.
In any event, I think it was one of the sweetest little things I've ever gotten in the mail. Happy (early) birthday to me!

that's so pretty! and, hand-crank burr grinder?! i didn't know there was such a thing. wish list.
@nevers: The grinder is amazing! If you're at all inclined to have a small, portable coffee grinder (very high quality, very consistent, very durable and totally adjustable) I highly recommend the Hario Skerton. They're not very expensive at all!
That is fantastic. I want one!
Nice and interesting thing to share on your blog!
What a fantastic coffee scoop! I'd love to have one, where did you buy it?
Very cute scoop...actually, just this morning I was saying that I need to get my co-worker a scoop for our coffee...she just pours the coffee in and ends up making it way too strong.

Love the Hario Hand Grinder. I can't recommend it enough. Mmm coffee.

This is a great find.
I'd love to try that scoop for our Kona coffee! Where can I get it?
Bea-uti-ful...now what you need is a coffee mug...a special one.
Oh my that's awesome. I love dark wood utensils for use with anything to do with coffee. So rustic, I love it!
Woah! awesome scoop you got there.

I love this, it looks like it works very well. I don't have a grinder, so I just use pre-ground coffee. It's a lot fresher if you buy the beans and grind them yourself.

That's really lovely, an aesthetic object you can sit there and admire as well as a useful one!
I like the look of this, rustic yet modern somehow.
Nice and interesting thing to share on your blog!
The grinder is amazing! If you are in any respect inclined to possess atiny low, transportable occasional grinder. I highly advocate the Hario Skerton. they don't seem to be terribly expensive at all!
That hand crank burr grinder is pretty legit! More power to you, can't say I have the same level of dedication.
Gourmet coffee is expensive; it’s not always easy to find quality coffee at affordable prices
Great scoop. Thats a nice idea for a gift. Nice of your friend to get it for you.
