Here are the cupping sheets I highly recommend for new coffee cuppers/tasters: caseymakes.coffee/shop/p/cupp...
SCA cupping procedure: sca.coffee/research/protocols...
How I like to break down coffee tasting:
First pass: Find an identifying color. Trust your gut.
Second pass: Tactile descriptors (Texture, mouthfeel, weight)
Third pass: Find more specific flavors, draw inspiration from previous notes and identifying color.

hi
Hi Morgan
I have a Q. ...for you
Q. ...ive been a SUBSCRIBER for years
Not Only Too Yr Site but OTHERS
.... their is a Big Problem

ACTUALLY You might
be missing out on a Huge Number Of SUBSCRIBERS...
Your Audience that is NOT BEING NOTIFIED WHEN YOU POST A NEW VIDEO ...im one of them 😟
IS THEIR SOME WAY Morgan FOR "YOU" TOO FIND OUT WHAT IS GOING ON WHAT IS
THE PROBLEM REGUARDING BEING A SUBSCRIBER "🔔"
(and Not Being NOTIFIED)
I'd like too know what is the purpose of hitting that SUBSCRIBE
Bell 🔔...IF IT DOSENT WORK !!!
I got lucky today
You just popped up
(Im guessing as an accident) it certainly wasn't because im a SUBSCRIBER
because again thats
NOT working
Congratulation on your Big Win🏆
When my taste first came back after covid everything smelled/tasted different, and the post-covid coffee smell turned my stomach. It was so sad!! I'm happy to say I once again am back to enjoying coffee like I did before
Same thing happened to me, I couldn’t drink coffee for a few weeks and thought my life is ruined 😂, but everything was back to normal
I still have an awful taste in almost everything for almost 6 months. How long did it take you?
@@candid0111 it kind of gradually faded back to normal. I kept drinking coffee the whole time because it's my caffeine method of choice, then I just kinda noticed one day that it tastes normal again (or maybe I just got used to the bad) I had it November of last year.
@@maddymay8014 hm. I'm scared. I had no taste at all for 2 months. Then my taste returned somewhat. Then it completely changed to everything tasting and smelling the same awful way. August will be the 6th month of bad smells and tastes. Even perfumes I can't wear.
@@candid0111 most things still aren't "right" for me, I still don't enjoy smells and tastes the way I did before, and I don't eat as much or enjoy my meals as I did before. I also feel like I have super smell now, like I used to love candles and now they give me headaches
Do I drink coffee? No. Will I ever do a cupping? Probably not. But damn, I love watching your videos to expand my knowledge!
me watching videos about guns and cars. I hate the idea of people having guns, and i'm not interested into driving or having a car, but lets just see what are these folks are about, you know?
Same!
I've been describing coffee with colors since forever.
My friends think I'm crazy: "How does coffee taste blue?"
I feel so vindicated. Thank you Morgan!!!
Yes!
I have one friend who says my hair smells purple, so I guess some people just smell and taste in colors XD
Morgan sniffing coffee, "no thoughts, just Vibes" lol
"I am going to get a good grade in coffee tasting, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve"
I have to say this is one of my favorite videos that you've made (this far)! Many useful tips for someone like me who would like to get better at coffee tasting. Good luck with the training for the World Championships!
Thank you for including degree Celsius in your videos, it makes it easier to understand what you are talking about.
I am glad you are your way to feeling better. My Friday coffee doesn’t seem as nice without a video from your channel.
Good luck with the competition!
Rooting for you Morgan.. Go win the world of coffee over.
Thank you for this detailed description of cupping and tasting , absolutely the best I've heard.
Perfectly timed as I'm about to do my first cupping tomorrow - great video as always, thanks for sharing!
You were right on the grapes. White grapes are those that look green. They're used to make white wine.
You are just sooo likeable, I love that you take us on this coffee journey
Best cupping video. Love Morgans way of explaining everything.
this is enormously helpful - I don't drink much coffee because it doesn't agree with me, but I can see following a similar process for tasting tea.
Also, white grapes and green grapes are synonyms so you were more in agreement with the tasting notes than you thought.
I've heard of a lot of different kinds of synesthesia, but I've never even considered taste to visual! It really does make a lot of sense in some ways.
In my beer sensory class I recently described a beer as smelling like a soccer change room. I stand by it
That was fun! Especially at the end when you compared your notes to those on the package. ☕🍎🍊🍮🍇
I'm glad to see you doing well! ❤️
Definitely helpful! I’m trying to grow as a coffee professional, and your videos are always so fun and informative!
I love how you point out that it was "102 Fahrenheit" outside, as if we're wondering if you meant Celsius. 😀
I love this video! Learning different ways to describe and experience things is awesome. 🧡
When I had COVID, coffee was one of the few things I could -juuuuust- taste, which has made it even more of a comfort drink now. 😅
I like how your and James Hoffman's videos come out at the same time. Makes for a fun night
A cafe I used to work in used color descriptors for our beans: green was more acidic and bright, purple was fruitier and mild, and orange was bolder and darker. To this day I use those colors to associate taste before I begin dissecting into the coffee further! Great video.
Thank you for including Celsius!
Hi Morgan. The video is right on time while i’m preparing my latte. Yum. 😊😊☕️
Thanks for the lesson Sensei
Thanks for this video. I recently decided to do a little cupping at home for fun, and I had your tips from this video in mind while I was tasting.
Very helpful video, Morgan! I would like to ask for a video explaining how to train our taste buds to go on the right side of descriptions. I've seen some places trying fruit and so on, but what is the process behind that? It's an idea, of course. Greetings from Colombia!!
I did a cupping session at work with the QC Manager a few months ago and it was very fascinating. I would def like to do it again.
Lol I love that "very very low cut turtle neck" = normal t-shirt.
Wow. I'm very early today. Excited for a great video!
It's storming here in Ooltewah, TN...because once again, I see Morgan tasting coffee ☕️ 😋
I'm glad to see Metric is around - I remember when they first opened in Chicago. They do a great job!
Thank you so much!!! Very very helpful video, I hope you will do more about tasting! :)
Equator coffee's roastary is a convenient stop for me and they're mainly what I drink. Neat to see them on a west coast US based video
I had covid once last year, just got it again a few days ago after a trip. The first time around, my sense of taste took about a week and a half to come back. Luckily, I’m already starting to notice it again, so this time doesn’t seem nearly as bad
Thanks to the microwave, there was a secret episode in the background where the cat was hanging out. Loved the regular episode as per usual!
Your videos are the best
Thanks for the awesome content
I love your vids , you are really cool and thank you for the info
Good elaboration and method.
As a wine professional I’ve been desperate to talk to more coffee professionals about comparative tasting methods because while there are overlaps, there are massive differences.
Come to New York we have the best coffee in this galaxy.
I always love your videos
A very very low cut turtleneck is… it’s a shirt… right?
This was a really cool video. Rock on! 🤘
I really really loved this video; I never knew how to ACTUALLY start cupping properly, and this "real-time" cupping video encouraged me to do cupping step by step as you did! Thanks!!
how did adam say it?
science is just screwing around but you write everything down?
awesome video!
thanks!
My favourite barista!
i really appreciate this approach to tasting. i tried cupping for the first time this week and i feel like i didn’t do amazing at it? which sounds weird because i’m just noting down how things taste for me? i might try associating colours when tasting coffee from now 😊
I’M SO HAPPY I MISSED YOU MORGAN
Missed you too!
Thanks Morgan ..😃😃 ❤️
The best cupping bowls are the small Ikea Pokal glasses!
I think I see a kitty reflected in the microwave! 😻
I feel like Morgans come a long way in audio quality on her videos. I remember watching videos from a few years or ago or so, and I would have them on max volume but she was so quiet. Now I have it on half volume and its so clear and nice to hear. I just want to say TY for improving the audio on your videos. Its very nice. I dont like wearing headsets due to sensitive ears, so its nice when I can just play stardew and not have to wear one to hear a video
I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS 😍😍😍
I too temporarily lost my sense of taste and smell from covid. A year later, although I regain my senses, I find them relatively muted compared to pre covid and I had to re expose my senses to everything as for some reason my brain forgot the profile of certain flavours so its still difficult for me during coffee tasting
Fun trick! For anyone who wants to know the feeling of " Losing tastebuds"...
Take 8 oz of coffee, add 12 splenda. Drink. Now go and try to eat something afterwards. No matter what you try to eat it will be a diaster.
even 1 sip of that coffee will mess with you but drink it all for the full effect. You tastebuds will freakin die.
Did the Costa Rica trip happen? Will there be any videos about it?
You and James posted within 10 minutes of each other. Foreshadowing a collab maybe??
You seem to be invoking some manner of Synesthesia when doing the tasting. That's really interesting!
I got distracted by your cat’s reflection on the microwave 😭
That's a very familiar form of synesthesia. I love that.
Have you ever done a video about the method of pour over you use I searched but didn't see one
Where would you recommend I go to attend a cupping? A class perhaps?
My tastes and smells were made screwy while I had Covid and it took over a month for things to return to normal. One of the most sad things for me was Mayonnaise smelled terrible, like rancid. It is my king condiment so losing it for a whole month was torture.
When learning to taste, should you start with a set that is the same "maker" but different roasts or something?
Could get a hold of the cupping forms... Any leads?
What's your opinion of the Javy coffee concentrate?
Any chance you can update the link to the sheets you use? Cheers
this was like watching magic! when I taste coffee, I taste...coffee. I can't imagine being able to distinguish fruits and nuts and things in there!
There are a few reasons why you might not be getting all this:
1) Lots of commodity coffee is pretty dark roasted, which tends to make it taste pretty generic and masks the origins (and any defects, which is why they do it). Nonspecific blends also tend to be pretty generic too because they're aimed at using whatever (cheap) coffee they can to get a result which is inoffensive to most people.
2) Freshness - if you're not grinding fresh, and you don't know when your coffee was roasted, chances are that a lot of the flavour that was there has gone, and it may even be going stale. These are volatile organic molecules - the reason you can smell the fragrance of fresh ground coffee is because those compounds are evaporating into the air.
3) You might just not be aware of the differences. We tend to experience things relative to other things. If you tasted several coffees side by side you'd notice the difference more than drinking one cup in isolation.
Find your local specialty roaster and see if they do a tasting kit of small samples of single origin coffees (many do) and set yourself up a little cupping like Morgan demonstrates here. It's ok if they grind it if you don't have a decent grinder yet provided you don't let it hang around for days after it's ground. If you talk to your roaster they'll probably be super excited to help you.
Just be prepared for the fact that once you start tasting really good coffee that has distinct and interesting flavour, you'll never be able to drink supermarket generic coffee or Starbucks again. It's worth it.
Novo stopped producing my favorite coffee, they labeled 'Buenos Aires' which was a Washed Caturra with notes of Walnut and Canteloupe. Super bummed about it. It was the first coffee that I genuinely thoroughly enjoyed black without even a splash of creamer which is why it holds a special place in my heart lol
If you can remember the country it's from see if you can look up the farm. You should be able to find it again next harvest. If not from the same roaster the. Likely from another
Will we ever see a Eorgan [Mckroth] Drinks Coffee channel? Hames Joffmann fans want to know.
please taste coffee from the awesome coffee club by the green brothers!!!
Hey, I just got a bag of Dune myself 😁 different beans though - Indonesia Kamala Gulang Anaerobic ☕
I approve of the cat in the microwave reflection.
can you review the mcilpoog automatic coffee machine
Hi may i ask for help? I just wanted to know how to fix acidic espresso be cause everytime i am going to pull a shot my espresso taste so acidic even i keep grinding it finer and finer and adjusting my ratio still the acidity still there sometimes i am ending up within 30/31secs knowing that it will help but still it is still too acidic.
When you said "The world is your oyster" I was like "Oh god, notes of oyster in coffee" lmao
slurping is basically turning yourself into a coffee carburetor
Morgan: "Hello there!"
Me: pauses video to click like
Can u explain the turtule neck why u wear that
Do you happen to have synesthesia? I feel like the color tasting is pretty hard for me
Is there a reason why the quick slurp is preferred for tasting coffee versus something more akin to the sip and then aerate used for tasting wine? Both achieve the same result of spreading the flavour and finding the tastes within
It makes for a way to get the full flavor and aromas of the coffee when hot. You see the same thing in tea tastings. Its partially a temperature thing partially an aeration thing.
@@playtester6635 yeah I think it's mainly because coffee is hot.
@@chemistrykrang8065 to lower the heat makes the most sense, because for flavour I find no noticeable difference between the coffee slurp and the wine slurp methods
Hi morgz I just found you and I LOVE UR STYLE. You’re like a female, not sociopathic, Steve Jobs.
I have this thing with CZcams notifications. The Bell is on, with setting to All, but I keep missing videos and it bugs the hell out of me. Does anyone experience the same and/or has a solution?
I think white grapes are green.
wow you lost your taste and smell too? I got covid on Thanksgiving of 2021, its been over a year now and my taste and smell are still messed up. at first coffee just had a very very distant taste of chocolate, then it started to taste disgusting for a while, then slowly it's been starting to actually taste like coffee, but its still a bit off and the coffee taste is very distant, almost like im chasing a ghost. the smell isnt quite there either, sometimes i get a random whiff that smells exactly as i remember coffee smelling, but when i try to sniff it directly its off, doesnt really smell right. if anyone has any recommendations about how to help heal my taste and smell please let me know
7:15 "If you're inhaling grounds, you're doing it right"
me: proceed to line the coffee grounds and snort it
You would not be the first person to snort coffee. Considering people snorted cheeto dust, coffee grounds is hardly that far out there.
White and green grapes are the same thing.
At first, I thought you were a short-haired girl, then i saw your name and was like "Oh it's a guy", then i heared your voice and was like "oohhh, my first instinct was right!". But seriously, I like your content!
[meme]"A T-shirt is just a very low cut turtle neck. Change my mind."[/meme]
White grapes ARE green grapes. Just a name some people use for them. So you were on there.

Coffee and sweet?

Yesterday
Tough words.
What's with cutting every few seconds
Morgan - To me it tastes like orange jam....
British People - hold on, hold on, orange jam?
'furry fist slams on the table'
Paddington Bear - NOW LISTEN HERE....
Learnt so much from this video Morgan, thank you.. the British nation forgives you for saying orange jam..
