Coffee is good for the morning routine.
I do love to drink coffee every morning as my morning routine because
- It is easier than meditation
- It does not need expensive investment
- It can be your new hobby
It is easier than meditation
If you hear the word morning routine, you may imagine meditation or zen.
And once I have tried the morning routine starting with meditation.
However, it seems quite difficult for beginners, because it requires us intense level of focusing ability.
Even now, I do try meditation when I feel psychologically exhausted, but there is a much easier way; Coffee for the morning routine.
The reason why drinking coffee can be your morning routine is that preparing the coffee is the consequence of the same movement.
Scale the beans, grind the coffee beans, boil the water, and pour hot water into the drip equipment.
In my opinion, the importance of having a morning routine is to keep doing the same thing every single morning.
If you cannot drink coffee, of course, you can be brewing tea instead.
Repeating the same movement constantly can make you relaxed every single time you do it.
I get relaxed every single morning by brewing the coffee by Aeropress.
Aeropress looks like this.

It does not need expensive investment
The second reason why I recommend having a coffee morning routine is that you don't have to invest too much to start.
What you need to start the morning coffee routine are
- Brew equipment (Aeropress)
- Kettle
- Hand grinder (POLEX)
- Coffee Scale
- Coffee beans

You may have a kettle and cooking scale, so what you need to prepare are Brew equipment and a Hand grinder.
Generally speaking, coffee equipment tends to be very durable and resistible, so, once you purchase it, you can use it for a really long time.
The price of coffee equipment is usually very affordable, but at the same time resistible, so, in terms of cost efficiency purchasing a decent coffee, equipment is a wonderful shopping.
Please do not hesitate to invest in the coffee equipment, because if you choose the cheap one, the equipment not from a famous brand like "Hario" "Kalita" "Aeropress",
