With the monitors sorted, I got back to thinking about how to mount the things in the rack. I had two main options, either get someone to fabricate something, or DIY something myself.

One of the first presents we bought ourselves after we got married was a proper bean-to-cup coffee machine. For the longest time we just picked up whichever beans were cheap enough and easily available, be it from large online retailers or the local supermarket. We really needed to upgrade our coffee experience - here is my review of Rave Coffee.

More recently we decided we should be focusing on quality over quantity. Moreso we had become concerned over the <a href="https://www.theworldcounts.com/challenges/consumption/foods-and-beverages/environmental-effects-of-coffee-production" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">environmental impact</a> our coffee habits were having.

More recently we decided we should be focusing on quality over quantity. Moreso we had become concerned over the [environmental impact](https://www.theworldcounts.com/challenges/consumption/foods-and-beverages/environmental-effects-of-coffee-production) our coffee habits were having.
|
||||
|
||||
Deciding we could do better, we needed to find a local coffee supplier. They needed to also be environmentally minded.

A friend suggested we try Cirencester based [Rave Coffee](https://i.refs.cc/m9Xi83Rv?smile_ref=eyJzbWlsZV9zb3VyY2UiOiJzbWlsZV91aSIsInNtaWxlX21lZGl1bSI6IiIsInNtaWxlX2NhbXBhaWduIjoicmVmZXJyYWxfcHJvZ3JhbSIsInNtaWxlX2N1c3RvbWVyX2lkIjoxOTk0ODg5ODk5fQ%3D%3D).
