Most people will agree to the standard recommendation of 15 grams of coffee grounds for every 8 fluid ounces of water. For me, I like to bump it up to 20 grams of coffee when using the pour over method. It results in a stronger cup of coffee but doesn’t compromise those subtle flavors only achievable through using a pour over. #KuVida #Coffee #PourOver https://www.instagram.com/p/CEMcPSUDHC7/?igshid=mljkxbnrx3hk

The Dallas Fort Worth metroplex is made up of so many unique neighborhoods. This map sculpture, that can be found at all four Dart Rail stations in the Dallas Business District was envisioned by the artist to be a wayfinding element for a populace not accustomed to rail. This is one of many pieces of public art that we love and appreciate. #KuVida #Coffee #Dallas #DallasTexas #DFW #StreetArt https://www.instagram.com/p/CFwyaJzD8FM/?igshid=2zcewpymwtlh

This map sculpture highlights one of my favorite forms of art: architecture. Often I take for granted the immense amount of work that goes into creating a sky scraper and how they too are ultimately pieces of public art. What is a city without a skyline? And what is a skyline without our architects. This one goes out to all of our beloved architects who are literally making our cities one building at a time. #KuVida #PublicArt #Dallas #Coffee # DFW #architecture https://www.instagram.com/p/CFj0NjRDY0C/?igshid=lnva7gs9ul05

We set out to showcase some of the best pieces of public art our metroplex has to offer.  This one in particular is located at Akard Station right in the heart of downtown Dallas. Brad J Goldberg was commissioned to create the map sculpture, complete with every detail all the way down to street names.  Go to KuVidaCoffee.com to see more of what’s happening in our city and abroad. #KuVida #Coffee #DowntownDallas #Dallas #AkardStation #DFW https://www.instagram.com/p/CFaTJLODCY7/?igshid=1t1v320lhwfu2

We set out to photograph some of the most recognizable landmarks in our metroplex. To tell a story, about how we’re all different yet we share something in common. Out of dozens of photos this one really left an impression on me. Not because of its significant location but because of its beautiful symmetry. Look for beauty and you’ll find it all around you. #KuVida #Coffee #DFW https://www.instagram.com/p/CFLQ302DnSv/?igshid=foam1mhqy4y4

I have to show my love for Downtown Carrollton. This is one of the coolest places to visit. You have to check out the Silos Climbing Project. Some savvy visionary had the idea of converting an old grain silo into the tallest indoor rock climbing gym in North America. And once you're done rock climbing, grab a bite at Twisted Root Burger Co. If you haven’t eaten there you don’t know what you’re missing. #KuVida #Coffee #CarrolltonTX #DFW https://www.instagram.com/p/CFGdq1WDL2C/?igshid=1qyj991hqlmuc

There’s something attractive about train tracks. Wouldn’t you agree? I think it’s because the train was among the first monumental achievements in public transportation. Think about how much freedom it created for people in the 1800’s. And still today, train tracks represent the vast majority of interurban public transit systems, from the “L” of Chicago to the Metro of Madrid #KuVida #Coffee #DFW #carrolltontx #traintracks https://www.instagram.com/p/CE7-mWlDVAs/?igshid=carge3n0i23m

Our slogan at #KuVida Coffee has been and will continue to be “My Cup Runneth Over”. This well known phrase from the 23rd Psalms is a poetic expression of how good God is. The cup represents our portion in life; the mortal limits of what we can receive. But God gives us more than we have room to receive and therefore invites us into a life of generosity, as our cups run over.
