Coffee blooming is interesting to watch and I've posted it before. When freshly roasted coffee is ground and sunk in hot water to brew, carbon dioxide escapes and bubbles out when the beans get wet. It's an interesting phenomenon and it coincides with the release of the fresh aroma of coffee (not as intense as when you grind them). And of course, there's the anticipation of freshly brewed coffee about to be ready!
