Coffee...

[islandman]

Tell me about the coffee you drink.

Country of origin? Flavour profile? Black or with milk? Sugar/sweetener?



Discuss.

A certain someone told me darker roasts from certain regions are less acidic than other coffees.

So I switched to a darker roast. I buy beans at the store and do a coarse grind on them. I put water on the stove until it's a little before boiling. Pour the water in my french press, wait five minutes, push down the plunger and my coffee is ready.

I take mine with a little milk and sugar in the raw.

French roast. Oily beans. Black as pitch. No additives.

It has a warm and mellow glow, like Cuban mahogany and tastes fiery and smooth all at once... wait, that is not coffee - it's WHISKEY!

right now it's cafe bustelo from a drip. 1/2 the pot was consumed hot with a teaspoon of sugar and milk. now it is going to be iced down with a little sugar and milk. once this pot is gone, i may use my electric 'stove top' espresso maker to make an iced latte. i foresee that being 3ish.

After living in Korea for so long, I can only drink coffee this way:

A topic I am equally happy to partake in.

So I found out why this fucking coffee sucks-

My grandma came in here and was like, "This coffee is fucking horrible, did you make this?" Because that bitch is hardcore about her coffee.

I was like, "Yeah."

Her: Never use that can again. That shit is really old.
Me: They why do we have it?
Her: And it's not fair trade- it's Folgers- don't drink it.
Me: THEN WHY DO WE HAVE IT!?
Her: I made some good coffee if you want some. There's a whole can of good coffee in there.
Me: WHY DO WE HAVE FORBIDDEN COFFEE!??
Her: *walk away*
Me: ???

As for how I drink it- 6-8 equal, milk, and coffee. Cinnamon and shit to, when I can get it.

I went into explicit detail just for you, and you skip over my post.

I'm really fucking hurt.

There's various different brands ^^ But just ask for "Cold coffee with Milk" they'll get it :3

The Nescafe ones are usually the one's you can find in K-marts ^^

They look like this:

You had me at "sugar in the raw".

 

[Bidin~Time]

Strong, no cream, no sugar.

I didn't skip it.
French roasts are hot.

I was just really preoccupied with how horrible my coffee is. And I still don't understand why there's a random can of horrible coffee that I can neither make nor throw out. It makes no sense. I think there's someone's soul trapped inside or something.

Ground coffee has lost much of it's flavor 20 minutes after grinding.

I totally thought you were gonna say, "Ground up and in the freezer".

Best coffee I ever had? From the Jamaican Blue Mountains. I also like a little Mexican coffee when on vacay. Mixed with cinnamon, chocolate and vanilla.

And you want HIM to pour you coffee after the way he treats you?? hmmmph!


My favorite is Lavazza Espresso Whole Beans. I like it black with no cream or sugar.

I'm a Lavazza man!

We should totally fuck and stuff.

I had a mystery to solve! Doesn't make me any worse of a slave.

Oh, wait-

No, no, I stand by it. Might get burnt for it, though. Fucking up coffee sounds like one of the more dangerous ways to fuck up.

My friend that owns a coffee shop uses a Chicago roaster because one of the friends he grew up with works for them.

Damned if I can remember the name off the top of my head.

 

[IndieSnob]

Now I remember.

Intelligentsia.
