Just realized my morning brew routine changed after reading a coffee shop sign

I was at a local shop downtown and they had a sign saying "good coffee takes 4 minutes" which got me thinking about how I rush my pour over every single day. Now I'm wondering if anyone else has slowed down their routine and actually noticed a difference in taste, or is it just a mental thing?

Four minutes is a long time when you're half asleep. But rushing a pour over kind of defeats the purpose. It's not just mental, the water needs time to actually extract the flavor.

My pour over usually takes more like 4 seconds... maybe I'm missing something.

@umar59 you're fine, science says extraction happens in seconds not minutes so your 4 second pour over is actually perfect.
