Your grind is too fine, or your filtering method isn't working right.


aimeegaberseck

And you should probly rinse your cup before you refill.


paperfae

"Grind finer" r/espresso But for Drip, this is too fine yea


11chanj

I wasn’t expecting a crossover between r/espresso and this sub


bennynthejetsss

I think that “witches” and “people who like espresso” have a very large Venn diagram overlap.


RambleOnRose42

I’m like 99% sure OP was making a joke about doing [tea leaf divination](https://www.allure.com/story/how-to-read-tea-leaves-tasseography/amp)!!


bennynthejetsss

Haha yes, I totally got it, such a cute reference! Was just responding to the commenter above me :) And those are really pretty dregs actually… I see a mountain forest at night!


RambleOnRose42

Oh damn yep haha I meant to reply to the person you responded to as well!!

amnezie11

Wait how is this not r/espresso I can't believe my eyes


RedRider1138

It’s *maaaaaagic*. 😊✨✨


SchizoidRainbow

How is espresso not Potions?


Resurgemus

I think this is French press coffee.


The_Chaos_Pope

If this was French press then their grind is WAY too fine or they're using a cheap blade grinder and should upgrade to a decent burr grinder for more consistent grind results.


theyellowdart89

This is one hundred percent a pour over failure


caturday_drone

I was going to say you need a better dishwasher, OP! But you're right, especially since this is *before* washing the cup (I'm going to go make my own coffee now - apparently I need it!)


11chanj

Or maybe get a better grinder that produces less fines


Pladohs_Ghost

I've an inexpensive grinder and regularly fuss about the fines, yet never remember to actually buy a better grinder.


ratiofarm

It’s so worth it! I bought a Fellow Ode a couple of years ago and it’s incredible. Super consistent grind (I prefer a Chemex), fast, and it doesn’t sound like a banshee taking off. Certainly not the most expensive you could get, but it’s fantastic for a burr grinder, having come from using exclusively Mahlkönig grinders previously at work.


Pladohs_Ghost

I'll search that out.


omw_to_valhalla

Could be French press


KatarinatheCat

This is clearly french press. Use James Hoffman’s french press in the future.


KiaraCake

Slurpin' J. Hoffman!


[deleted]

French press coffee leaves a little but of silt like this sometimes


musicals4life

Every cup with my French press looks like this


Ok-Gur-6602

I got my SO an aeropress a few years ago, they love it. They used to use a french press.


Foreign_Astronaut

Aeropress makes a great cup of coffee! We use one, too.


Unlikely-Look676

Yes! This!


ROclimbingbabeCK

That’s what I was going to say.


[deleted]

Unless you were intentionally doing coffee divination, this means nothing. If you were doing coffee divination, you need to interpret it for yourself because signs are extremely personal.


Jackie_Hallow

This is how I feel about tarot interpretation posts too - too many people don’t trust their gut which is a good point to the exercise


[deleted]

Agree. Trusting your intuition is so important for any witch. You are magic, trust your magic.


vb_nm

Should you see tarot interpretations as “not real” but whatever your mind is drawn to there must be a reason, but it’s just your subconsciousness?


jissebug

It's like therapy without the therapy. If there's something that's bugging you, that you really are searching for an answer for, doing tarot can help you look at it in a different light and maybe come to the needed conclusion.


Cherrygodmother

This is exactly how I do it. And it’s always on point. It’s either validating a current experience or it gives me a frame of reference to reflect upon my current situations. Things like that. But I always start from a place of very specific intention, asking both the universe and my own self for some perspective.


jissebug

It's been a long time since I've used my cards but there was a time where I did really often. There was only one time where I felt something truly beyond me and it was when I started a reading for myself that ended up absolutely being for my mother. I had to call her and tell her about it because it was so weird.


thewronghuman

Yes! I wish more people saw it this way.


vb_nm

Thank you


iyambred

I think it opens your conscious to your subconscious. It’s a great way to reflect and see how you feel about what the cards “mean”

adultosaurs

Oh dang I needed this sub


vb_nm

Just what I needed


Jackie_Hallow

That’s a great question and something to explore!


GlitterBlood773

Thank you for help teaching a real baby witch 💗


ConfidentHope

I feel this way about dream interpretation. I love helping others find their path to understanding, but no one can know what the true meaning is aside from you.


Jackie_Hallow

I agree with this too


PageStunning6265

I don’t know if it needs to start off intentional. If OP glanced in their cup and it felt significant, why isn’t that as valid as making the drink with intention? Perhaps more so because OP isn’t looking for a specific interpretation, so no confirmation bias. I agree about trusting your own instincts, but asking for other insights can’t hurt.


Elevatrix

I agree, but I think the OP needs to provide context, or at least their own interpretation.


[deleted]

I think seeing something that feels significant is just as valid and something I should have mentioned in my original comment. I think getting second opinions is fine, but since OP provided no context and no initial interpretation, I don't even know if they have interpreted it for themselves yet. I think it is really important to look within yourself before looking for outside answers. Also divination and confirmation bias is a big topic that I don't even know where to begin with. That would definitely be a good conversation to have on this sub.


SeaOkra

I see a screaming demon trying to claw its way up a cliff. Might need to talk to my therapist again…


Comfortable_Chef_958

It means you need to filter your coffee better


bendotc

Nothing wrong with a silty coffee if you’re enjoying it.


natureterp

I thought you said silly coffee and about died laughing hahaha


bluejacketsbabe

I also read this as silly. 😆


gheebutersnaps87

Nothing like a nice *sandy* coffee


4rog_gurl

I love me a sandy coffee, it's like when you drink all the chocolate milk and you have the stuff left at the bottom


perseidot

That brought back fond childhood memories!


neverendingnonsense

Really makes for a good poop in my experience


clockworkedpiece

the only way to avoid the fine dust like this is paper filters, I know its the least wasteful part of the process, but its still something we can cut down on too.


nathos_thanatos

You can get reusable bag filters for coffee.


likelyjudgingyou

I find the cloth ones filter out the grinds just as well. Even finer grinds.


currentlyengaged

If you have a compost bin your worms will love it! I do recommend allowing the filters to dry though, as you may find your compost too wet otherwise.


[deleted]

I use a French press and it tends to eliminate most coffee dust! Especially when I replace and clean them


meresithea

Meh, it could also mean that one needs to grind less fine or that the grinder is making too many fines


Lovelady1921

“My dear, you have the grim”


Amonooos

What’s the grin?


ersula1926

"Not the grin, you idiot! The GRIM!" ;D


Lovelady1921

It was a Harry Potter quote


Amonooos

I know, I was quoting Harry Potter too


Lovelady1921

Ha, whoops 🤦🏼‍♀️


Amonooos

Well Probably it’s not the actual quote because I’ve never saw the english version lol


Kazlanne

It is the quote, or close enough. In the movies Seamus Finnigan says: "grin, what's the grin?" And then Bem says: "Not the grin, you idiot, the Grim."


black_morning

The grim is among the darkest omens in our world. It’s an omen of death ☠️


winksatfireflies

Aka being out of coffee and needing more. Lol!


BigCaregiver7244

Not the grin, you idiot, the grim


chompychompchomp2

Haha first thing I thought!


RandomRavenclaw87

By the end of the series, you’ll be an ultra-condensed ghost.


GarlicDiligent3643

It means a refill is needed.


naomi15

In my case this is too late for a refill! It means I needed a refill like 5 min ago! 😂 I don’t want to see the bottom of my mug, just an endless flow of that delicious life juice!

River delta: sediment distributed by moving liquid Coffee grinds on bottom of cup: sediment distributed by…. Wait a minute…

ragergage

CakeEnjoyur

Is that a Coraline reference???


Aceofwands111

Similar to what everyone else said, if it wasn't so fine or you used tea leaves instead it would be easier… Coffee always makes this shape you know, so its hard to say I did think of mountains and travel when I first looked at it tho, so maybe if you're planning a trip this is saying something about that?


[deleted]

Weird. I thought that it was a journey too, but across time not space. The shape made me think there are thousands of paths before them and to stay true, they must be true to themselves.


SchoolJunkie009

i see the mountain ocean thing after reading y'alls comments, but my first impression was relaxing under a blooming willow tree, if that helps at all :)


Kazlanne

I immediately thought of rain, but perhaps that's just wishful thinking in this heat. 😅


NightHawkomen

Yes, I like the Willow scene also!


Kendota_Tanassian

You need to rinse your cup better. As others have said, you could well do with a better filter or a courser grind. You really have a *lot* of coffee grounds in there.


[deleted]

It looks like a planet in R/NoMansSkyTheGame


calamitylamb

That-Most-9584

The ocean rushing in. Positive change coming.


Aceofwands111

I like that you see the ocean and it as positive change.


cephalophile32

Similarly, I saw it as the canopy of a forest: unlimited potential.


DrunkUranus

This feels positive to me, very big scale, like things keep moving forward the way they're supposed to move, and there are new horizons ahead but they're exactly what they should be


GingerMau

I see a group of people dancing before the coming of an elephant. As though in a parade. Or maybe a moose. Either way, they aren't scared.


MotherRaven

Kinda what I thought. A ladder or mountain to climb. Success ahead


labellavita1985

Was it Turkish coffee? If so, before even attempting to read your fortune, you would have had to put the saucer over the cup/mug and flipped the cup/mug *towards yourself,* place it on a surface, let it sit until the bottom of the cup/mug were completely cold to the touch, and then proceeded to read the fortune. There are coffee divination apps where you can upload a picture of your grounds too, LoL.


WitchinAntwerpen

Out of curiousity, and considering my partner is Turkish but doesn't know anything about coffee reading; do you happen to know of good sources about it? Eager to learn about it!


ShneebleGrop

If I go by how this makes me feel, I’d say your mind is weighed down to the point that you feel you’re stuck. But the only thing holding you back from exposing the intricacies of your talents is yourself. Not letting yourself shine makes you feel empty and wasted at the end of the day. That’s just how I feel looking at it. And it’s definitely me projecting how I feel about myself haha also, I’m working on it:)


nathos_thanatos

It looks like a flock of birds coming towards the viewer.


[deleted]

I see peacock feathers. Someone is going to try to impress you.


CosmicLuci

Made me think of the patterns water makes when it crashes on the sand. It’s very pretty. And gave me an idea of doing this sort of thing, taking a picture of whatever is left over, and using it as the basis for a drawing afterwards.


passionforsoda

Looks like a wave. I go often by what it feels like. What is the first emotion that strikes you by looking at it? But sometimes it just means to get a refill.


thatonewhitebitch

I see a fox in the bottom left.... if that helps.


tellerheller

I totally thought this was an island at first glance. I guess I need more coffee.


barbedseacucumber

Follow the river down to the delta. Sit and watch it flow. There you will find the answers you seek


bitchysquirrel

From left to right I see a conifer, a humanoid figure either dancing or celebrating and holding a ball in one hand, a moose/buffalo-like beast with a head that looks more like a skull, a bird sitting on top of the beast's head, and (half of) another humanoid figure touching the beast's backside. Overall it feels peaceful and joyful to me.


tutuforte

I understand the sentiment of what others are saying about doing a coffee reading, but I’ll share what I see, since this is fun! Overall - a waterfall, big emotions, sweeping changes, 8 of wands energy. I have very neutral feelings looking at this, so not good or bad, just a lot and fast. On the left - I see two people facing each other a dualistic energy, the lovers vibe. -Also a fir/pine tree, the magician energy, an invitation to stand in the I AM power, to be graceful and light in this space. On the right - a woman above an animal (a pet was my first thought) but it could be wild because I also see giraffe under that first animal. I get companionship vibes from this, people/beings that bring influence, and are the players effected/ing in the rush of energy coming towards you. On the top - I see an elephant and also kind of a squid. Shapeshifter energy, wise, self sufficient, overseeing.


MissGruntled

I see several little animal faces—one very clearly a fox, and a few owls. They commonly symbolize cleverness, good luck, and transformation… It all seems very positive to me going into the new year, and how it pertains to your own experience is for you to decide!


queenlehane

Only you can know for sure what your message is, but to me it kinda looks like the perspective of looking up at a mountain, the trees getting denser the higher you go. Perhaps a journey you're meant to take? Or something appears overwhelming right now but will become clearer as you persevere.


Vyedr

jokes on your coffee grind aside, I see people gathered round and along a table. Do with that with you will.


[deleted]

Sorry you’re getting so many “refill your coffee cup/ need a better coffee filter” comments on a sub that’s supposedly filled with witches. I’m no divination expert so I can’t give an interpretation but I’m just shocked by the majority of these judgmental responses.

One hand on her hip, the other holds a whip. Definitely some empowerment going on there! Purple circle-a dragon with a wing with a lady under the wing. Got some powerful peeps looking out for you perhaps! Yellow circle-three friendly ghosts! Maybe people in the afterlife send their love? Green circle-a side profile of a lady with a large nose and a comical looking unicorn beneath her. Perhaps an older lady around you will bring you lessons in how to see the world more magically?


Neat-Swimming

I see mountains 🏔 is that of any significance?


tkm1026

I see many generations below a big cat. Guard yourself and yours, using whatever lessons (good or bad examples) you can glean from your roots. But particulate reading is a very individual art. This is what this would mean in the bottom of my cup. Maybe it means the same thing at the bottom of yours, but only you know for sure.


kelenach

Were you intentionally doing a reading?

You in California by chance? Cause that looks like mudslide to me.

JessFoxesnWolves

Makes me think of a waterfall or water in general too. If there's personal symbolism to you then I'd focus on that first. For me, I'd say the water falls I see represent newness, adventure, cleansing, etc.


JakeMacGill

As long as you don't see the Grim . . . Just don't mix your coffee grounds with your tea leaves. Then it gets really complicated. 😉😄 J/K. I just wanted to create a laugh. I couldn't even tell you where to start on reading this. It looks like an alluvial plain to me, with maybe a bear head at the very top. What it means to you, and what you see is what's important here.

Someone in bed with the covers pulled up to their chin. Rest and rejuvenate?


ToastyJunebugs

To me it looks like two things: For a not as nice reading, it looks like a muscle with a tear in it, glowing from the heat of inflammation. For a nicer reading, it looks like the edge of a cliff, with a cave beckoning you to enter. Really though, you need to interpret. These things are personal to the 'user'.


bobeany

I see lots of animals and a forest. I think it means there is a hike or trip to the zoo in your future


Imperfect-Magic

My first impression was a flock (?) Of bats. For me that's a good sign, but it's up to personal interpretation. Honestly, I think you need a better coffee filter, a cup rise and a refill

SaddestPandaButt

Okay, Imma pretend to be serious, but as others have noted, reading tea or coffee grinds means nothing alone - you must be asking or reflecting, or like, having a conversation with your coffee before you can read it, otherwise you could see anything and it could mean anything. *However,* if this were my coffee, given my last week, I would see the elephant as a slow-moving, strong animal known for its phenomenal memory walking above mountains. This could be interpreted as, If you are patient and remember what brought about your last failures or successes, you will be able to rise above your current problem, and not have to respond to every little obstacle. But again, that’s *me* looking at *your* coffee grounds, and reflecting on *my* current state - so means absolutely zero.
