Nah, man. I love cold black coffee. I keep my fridge stocked with these, and I like to throw one in the freezer a few minutes before I leave for work to get it as cold as possible.

The way i like my women. Black and on ice, unlike my friend, who prefers it the way he likes *his* women: finely ground and in the freezer.

>>11742028
I prefer it with a splash of cream and a tiny bit of sugar, but i have been drinking it black lately because of a combination of being too lazy to remember to buy cream or sugar and the fact that the cream always expires before I use even half of it.

I don't.

>>11742028

>>11742045
Ayyy

If iced I like it black
If hot I like it with plenty of cream and just enough sugar to balance out the bitter flavor.

I only drink black decaf now. I was getting to addicted to it and didn't want it fucking up my cortisol levels

what's wrong with liking yummy coffee

>>11742028
Dark, slightly sweet and with a shot of Sexton's Whiskey.

>>11743977
Can you taste it?

Just reread that you make it strong so there's that.
But that amount of sweetness/sugar/cream seems to defeat the coffee, doesn't it?

I used to love Frappuccino style so I get it but kind of drifted away from the entry level candy-coffee.

It's great to cook with. Got a cookbook as a gift specifically for using coffee in recipes and it's great. They all call for the strong stuff (except ice cream).

>>11743986
My man.

>>11743999
Favorite coffee recipes, anon?

>>11744002
Ok.
Thanks for asking... Glad to see somebody's serious.

I would suggest substituting it for liquids in meat dishes. The "darker" ones work best like beef, lamb, etc...

Marinades.

If vegetarian, it works well in pasta dishes (not so much stir fry, though).

Breads are a definitely a to-do.
I don't bake cakes but that seems to be the most popular.

Here's a link I just looked up that would give you a good idea of which direction to go:

https://archive.lib.msu.edu/DMC/sliker/msuspcsbs_maxh_cheeknealc12/msuspcsbs_maxh_cheeknealc12.pdf

It's not the one I have but was published by Maxwell House (by the looks of it, in the late 70s / early 80s) and is pastry-centric.

I always loved plain-old-meat-loaf made with (a strongly brewed) coffee.

I'll see if I can find something more specific but that pdf link looks like a good starting off point.

I'm sure there are plenty of resources on-line that I haven't seen yet...

>>11744045
So for your marinades you're just brewing strong coffee? Or do you use the grounds in some sort of sauce base

>>11744054
Sorry.
I didn't clarify that (no pun intended).
I use brewed and add spices / herbs for a marinade. Cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, rosemary, etc... all work well for chicken dishes.

Beef, I will use onion, garlic pepper, or whatever is appropriate for the dish. Stroganoff is going to call for something different than a Bolognese. But using coffee is kind of a nice addition. Also when it's all cooked down, the coffee flavor isn't that strong.

An example might be something like this:
Shallot (or any kind of onion), garlic, coffee, vinegar, mustard, brown sugar, oil, about 1 tsp. or pinch of black pepper in a bowl and soak something like steaks in that for a few hours or about a day.
Grill.
???
Profit.

Haven't tried it on fish, yet.
I imagine something like swordfish or shark might work well with cilantro and a bit more acid like lime or lemon. I know some folks like to drink their coffee with lemon juice but I never got into that.

I don't use the grounds afterward, except for composting. And I've heard mixed opinions about that with nitrogen content in the soil. I'm no chemist so don't know if it's good or bad...

>>11744054
>>11744126
I suppose you could use the grounds as a sauce base to make it strong but I would strain them. Because... coffee grounds. But if you want it concentrated and bitter then yeah... better than brewed. Unless you're doing it cowboy style or french press where you can just let them soak and / or boil to your liking.

It's up to your personal taste, Anon.
Trial and error, I guess.

I like trading tips and tricks and glad to see this blue board isn't just being used as a porn resource.

Don't get me wrong, I still love me some porn but there's a place for that...

Also, just as a beverage, my favorite has to be the Vietnamese style. That sweetened milk is pretty good drizzled in (with moderation).

Or iced tea done that way is fantastic as well for when it's hot out.

>>11742033
Just how I like my women.

>>11744303
I hear ya.
Too much hard drinking on my end screwed up my tummy.
I remember bringing in an espresso machine to the office and our department drank that stuff all day long. Delivering reports to other offices was quite the task because it was like being drunk. The feeling of floating around and being discombobulated was weird; no control of motor skills.

I don't know what kind of damage that does to ones' system but I am not doing that again.
Once was good enough.

>>11744317
>it was like being drunk. The feeling of floating around and being discombobulated
I kind of like that. Actually being drunk usually makes me feel unhappy because I normally want to be active and doing something, but alcohol makes me feel tired. I can still function while being coffee/tea "drunk" even though it feels similar.

Doing it that often with large quantities probably isn't good though. You're most likely under toxicity levels but having that much, that often, probably isn't good for your sleep, blood pressure, etc. I just like to have a strong cup of green tea or even hot chocolate once in a while now to keep my tolerance low and not need large amounts to get that feeling. Green tea and chocolate seem easier on my stomach.

I think it might be the roasting process of coffee that causes problems, but I haven't tried light roasts or green coffee to confirm. I think we posted this before, but my stomach is still fucked up from drinking coffee over 2 months ago, even though it's improving, but I'm still wary of trying anymore coffee.

Light brew with a decent splash of whole milk and then drunk immediately . Never add any kind of sweetener.

>>11742028
Yes

A capachino.
>inb4 faggot

>>11742028
It's great, thanks.

>>11744360
Well, you're definitely more alert on coffee than alcohol. I can attest to that. But the out of control part is real.

I figure if I were to keep that up I might end up with heart palpitations, like you say with the blood pressure.

Light roasts have slightly more caffeine content. I don't know anything about green.

2 months ago is a long time to be messed up with coffee, I think. But I don't know. Ulcers could play a part in that, I suppose. I had tea last night and was up until still now, over 18 hours later. I'd given up caffeine in those doses for so long it actually worked like a drug is supposed to! Aside for an occasional soda, I've abstained and I'm glad to say that, when you need it after going without, it does work (like if you need to drive long distances over night or something).

>>11744449
A classic, classy choice.
No faggotry in that.
Other than it is spelled Cappuccino.
But there is a certain artistry in a decent cup.
Can also get you laid quicker than beer.

I been drinking it black for years but recently went back to putting a splash of milk in it. For some reason the milk seems to make the caffeine work better for me.

>>11744520
And if you use a high fat content dairy, it'll satiate you longer. I have heard of some people putting a pat of butter in their coffee but I've never tried that.

Logically, it makes sense and is probably tasty but never done it.

I either like cappuccino (French vanilla) or black. It just depends on if I’m feeling like a faggot that day.

Why do I only ever hear 5'6" soylets with pube beards say this?

Cappuccino 2 sugars, white sugar or the sweet brown one.

Followed by a half teaspoon when I'm near the bottom for MAXIMUM sweetness. Also long black for when I need to do some fucked shit all day. I found a small stand near my workplace when the guy does it, amazing when the girl does it there is no love in it.

Like my women

I don't like women

I don't drink coffee. It's too much caffeine for me.

Light roast with a dash of milk.
Nowdays I use oat milk, after using it for a while regular milk almost tastes a little salty and cheesy.
I prefer french press because normal coffe makers tend to start making bitter coffee after a while even with regular cleaning.

>>11746881

Huh.
Never noticed that with the coffee makers.
My family uses them and they stink to high heaven and it makes me want to puke in the morning (that's probably the hangover) but I *LOVE* the French press.

You get to do it exactly how you want and the glass and metal are guaranteed clean because I cleaned it. I'd bet your right with that no-cleaning thing.

I get it with the milk. I do like whole milk with coffee 'cuz it seems to cut the tannins but it also does get a bit of a "film" on the palate.
If available, I'd put a dollop of vanilla ice cream in with my coffee, though...

>>11746962
I suspect that it's because you can never really properly clean the plastic part that houses the filter. Constant stream of boiling hot water and plastic parts don't mix too well.
I used to like cream or whole milk in my coffe too, but as I said that after using oat milk for a while, mixing regular milk with a hot beverage seems to make it taste like cheese and I find that disgusting now.
My french press is stainless steel and doesn't seem to catch any taste and I can actually clean it properly whenever I feel the need.

>>11742028
From a Nespresso capsule machine cause its the fastest.

I like sugary ice coffee but only drink it rarely
I'm fine with black coffee if I have chocolate to eat with it.
I usually default to oatly coffee when I dont want to gain weight.

What kind of beans do you guys buy ? Should I just get the top seller on amazon of whatever type of roast I want or do those suck ? Also, what price range ?

>>11746984
YES! Plastic and hot water = gross.
I'm going to have to try the oat milk.
I wonder if rice milk would work as well... Just wondering. Seems like the oats would work better (for absorption purposes?).
And yeah, cleaning a French press is kind of a bitch but it's totally worth it for a discerning palate. Totally agree.

>>11747024
What's oatly coffee? Is that what was the above Anon was talking about; with the oat milk?

>>11747046
I usually just get a local company's house roasted small bag. Prices vary wildly. For instance, if they're getting Jamaican Blue Mountain it's gonna be expensive because people think that's the best but it's not necessarily true. Jamaicans don't even really drink that because it all gets exported to rich whitey countries. A simple light roast is usually what I go with. It's more variable in that you can get a great caffeine fix from it. But it you want to use it for cooking you can extend the roast in a toaster for a darker flavor. -- I think that depends on the oil content, though.
For a price range, I'd say go with what's nearby and then experiment and work up to what works for you. Everybody's different in their tastes.

anybody use coconut oil? I like to do it but idk if im using the right sort of coconut oil (refined or not/ organic or not). anyone have experience with this?

>>11747822
meant to add pic rel is what use right now

>>11747822
Don't use coconut oil. The people who advocate its use and tout its benefits cite profoundly bad science to support their claims. It would literally be like the corn industry advocating HFCS because a single study showed that people who ate corn on the cob are healthy.

>>11742028
Black and with no sugar

>>11742028

>>11747845
interesting. after some googling this morning all i saw were buzzfeed tier articles about how great it is. what if i am trying to gain weight, would it be beneficial to me then? got any sources for why its bad?

>>11747863
There are usually two claims made by people who advocate coconut oil. The first is that people who eat coconut heavy diets are healthy. The second is that even though coconut oil is mostly saturated fat, it contains MCTs, or medium-chain triglycerides, which are healthy compared to long chain triglycerides.

But! The study on coconut-based diets that are most often cited talk about an island people who get about 10-15% of their calories from coconuts, while the rest is mostly plant-based which is proven to reduce cholesterol. On top of that, they eat the whole coconut. The fiber and plant proteins in coconut have a moderating effect on how it affects your cholesterol. In other studies where coconuts were a greater percentage of the local diet (upwards of 60%), they found uncommonly high cholesterol despite still eating the whole coconut.

The argument about MCTs is also inaccurate. Of the total fat content in coconut oil, only about 10% is MCT, where almost 60% of the fats are long-chain. Whoops!

Here's the video in question: https://nutritionfacts.org/video/what-about-coconuts-coconut-milk-and-coconut-oil-mcts/

I use a couple of websites but I find myself sourcing nutritionfacts.org a lot. The guy has been in the nutrition game 30+ years, has hundreds of videos sourced from tens of thousands of studies, accepts no lobbying or corporate funding, and any money from his books and speaking engagements are donated to charity. That's the kind of impartiality I'm looking for when I want to learn about my health.

>>11744303
You need to drink a different type of coffee

>>11747909
holy shid thanks for lightening me anon. this is good stuff and u r based.

I saw all that stuff about MCTs in the info I read too but wasnt sure about it. thanks for the source

>>11748207
Just looking out, anon. Most people around here can't present facts or studies without devolving into the usual hissy fits, but I'm all for helping people that legitimately want to learn.

Glad to have been useful.

Currently: Cold Brewed light roast, in a 1 part concentrate to parts milk, no sugar.

Previously: french press light roast for ~3 minutes with sugar or honey, no milk.

I go with cold brew on work mornings because I get up too late to make coffee and I'm not going to spend the money on an automated drip system.

Not that guy, but thanks, as well.

I am constantly hearing this stuff (MCT / coconut oil) being shilled and bandied about on podcasts and so-called nutritionalists raving about it but I never really bothered to look it all up. Some people I do respect swear by putting a little oil slick on the top of their morning coffee.

Bookmarked that link for future reference since I'm short of time and that site looks like it will take me a few hours to just even peruse through.

>>11748395
Cheers, you're very welcome. It's a fantastic resource and turned me away from so many "healthy choices" that turned out to be little more than bad science and opportunistic marketing.

>>11748408
The funding aspect of that website is fairly compelling.

And yeah, growing up with "healthy choices" turned out to be a lot of bloviated marketing from my youth.
Ugh!

And bad science is just ...inexcusable.

All the relatives that I have who go off to some new-age health resort or ashram and come back with hippie-esque ideas about what I should be ingesting for my chakras to work drives me insane when I've got all these scientific journals for pharmacology and stuff (my father is a retired pharmacist but we still subscribe to the journals because they're interesting and relevant).

>>11748460
Absolutely. Folks on here, reddit, and other social media have fallen into the habit of simply linking a study because they read the abstract and maybe the conclusion. It simply isn't enough to just read a study. I have to see who provided the funding and compare against other studies. I don't trust blog posts or articles without sources. Too much "common knowledge" of nutrition is simply bad science from cherry-picked research and poorly framed studies.

Consider the research published by the Tobacco Institute. Today with what we know now, it's laughable. Benefits to tobacco? It was founded by big tobacco and they published "research" for 40 years before being dissolved. We nod our heads and say oh, of course, but miss that same lesson when it comes to other research. Similarly in nutrition, it's astounding how many studies praising the benefits of dairy, eggs, beef, etc. were funded and researched by those with interests in... dairy, eggs, and beef.

I love that the guy behind nutritionfacts.org never looks at research in isolation. It's always compare and contrast, looking at meta-studies that bring it all together. He isn't afraid to say "we don't know," he isn't afraid to say maybe or might, he isn't concerned about preserving conclusions from decades ago, and he isn't afraid to be blunt about the realities of what we're putting into our bodies.

>>11742028
Its good thanks for asking anon

>>11748538
That is fascinating about framed studies. The food pyramid for the US was pretty much the same way: designed by a group selling their cereal. Nutritionfacts.org looks like it'll be right up my alley (and thanks again for that).

One of the good-but-frustrating things about those pharmacological journals is that there is no one big article; it's lots of mini-reports over the span of years and one just has to pay attention over time. And yeah, they will re-nig on some of the published material later on when the results of studies become more conclusive to a particular subject but I think it's more of that there are multiple outcomes for different people being studied. I do love when sources are cited and you can actually look up the findings no matter how small or minuscule -- it all adds up to a bigger picture.

Dairy, eggs and beef... I'm not a vegan and still enjoy them but I've got to watch the old ticker since my family has a history of heart disease.

Gonna have to try out that oat-milk stuff for when I want to tame down the coffee.

fine ground coffee through a small moka pot mixed 1:1 with hot milk

>>11749026
No need to be coy.
>pic related: great stuff

At work, we always pooled in to buy a bag of beans and grind them on the spot, cup for cup. Put the grinds (usually fine) into a filter and that went into a funnel placed over our cups and just pour hot water from the water cooler (ironic, I know) into it until our oversized mugs were full.

Had to be careful because if it was too fine of a grind I'd get mud at the bottom of my cup. Even through the paper filter.

Okay I have a question is Moka pot coffee like actual espresso? The first time that I had it, it made me projectile vomit but I kept drinking it and I liked it but it makes me shake uncontrollably when I drink a whole brew of it. I have the "6-cup" model of the Moka pot by the way.

>>11749104
From online:

"Technically, moka pots don't make espresso, since espresso must actually be brewed under at least 9 bar (130.5 PSI). But they do make a strong, satisfying cup of coffee. ... Stovetop moka pots aren't foolproof. Boil the water on too high of a heat and you can cook the coffee, which leads to a burnt taste."

Espresso machines, in my experience, have always been steam rising up and then DOWN through the grounds rather than up through them.

I dunno, too strong of a coffee could make me hurl and give me seizures.

>>11749156
coffee is like a stress test for your cardiovascular system. remember someone referring to it as 'heart attack fuel'

If someone already has a damaged cardiovascular system a cup of coffee can trigger a heart attack

once I got on the path to recovering from cardiovascular disease. coffee actually helped.
I usually like to do cardio workout after my morning coffee. pretty good routine for me. I wonder how bizarre that sounds to a normal person.

hope i made sense

>>11749231
It totally makes sense.
But the heart palpitations are a real threat.
As far as the rest of the cardiovascular system, from what I understand, it is actually beneficial.

Just watch out for the irregular heartbeats, etc...

with a bit of soymilk and one sugar. Casein proteins in milk negate all of the health effects in coffee whereas soymilk compliments the taste and does not block any of the coffee health effects.

>>11751483
I just read some stuff on adding dairy to foods / drinks where the casein proteins bind with the antioxidant beneficial parts of things like coffee, blueberries, etc... The results were negligible in that they were miniscule. I guess it might matter if you are into bodybuilding.

>>11747909
>>11748538
Might want to see if this website has anything on that subject. I haven't yet.

That's interesting, though. Never thought about real dairy interfering with coffee other than the tannins. My sister loves soy milk with her coffee but I find it to be the same as just adding water unless it's got some kind of flavoring added.

i like my coffee with a side of hamburger and soda

I'm sure you're taking the piss, here, but there might be some that would work.

>I drink coffee

>>11743941
Fucking kys unironically.

>>11752792
What?

Evaporated milk drizzled into iced coffee is one of the best.
It's already sweet and with the right consistency. Works best with instant coffee for some reason. Perhaps because instant can be made a tad bit stronger so they can even each other out and adjusted with little volume displacement.

>if I kms unironically, it'll be through alcohol and not over somebody being pissed over coffee recipes

>>11742028
Depends, cream sugar mostly. If I feel edgy I drink it black.

Newer drinker here. What should I put in my coffee to make it taste less like thin bean water? I tried some medium roast with twice the recommended amount of ground beans in a french press but it felt like I was drinking oddly flavored water. Creamer gets rid of that, but makes it real sweet.

>>11754896
Odd.
Did you brew it long enough?
I'm guessing you did.

Bean water made me laugh...

Any roast should be fine enough. As far as texture, possibly add some kind of fat. Most people prefer things like whole milk. There was somebody that posted in this thread that said they put in a pat of butter (not sure if real or trolling) but the concept is the same.

Interdasting.

>>11754896
If you absolutely have to add something, plain heavy whipping cream is the best

>>11754953
4 to 5 minutes usually.

I guess I'll try the whole milk next time.

>>11754963
That seems overkill?

>>11754964
There is such a thing as over-brewing coffee, much like tea. Your timing seems fine. You are using a press so maybe plunge it SLOWLY once or twice. Hmmm...

If you smoke a lot, that can affect the tongue / pallet effect.

>>11754963
>>11754970
In my opinion, that is a bit of overkill every day, but on occasion is just fine. If you're looking for that toothsome feel this will work. I think...

>>11754997
Well, the press said to let the weight of your hand plunge it, so I've been doing it fairly slowly. I also don't smoke.

My friend just recommended milk that hasn't had the cream separated, if I can find it. Any thoughts on that?

>>11747920
Yeah I said in another post I want to maybe try a lighter roast at some point. But I really don't want to fuck up my stomach anymore because it finally seems to be getting better. Green tea and hot chocolate don't seem to bother me and I like them too so I've just been having that.

>>11745438

I put sweetened condensed milk in the cup under the phin, but regardless - you're my nigga.

>>11755022
OK. Hand plunging is the way I learned, as well. Seems to work well for the press.

As for the milk, homogenized is a problem.
I've seem stuff where you can shake it up to get the cream back, but I'm skeptical about that.

"Raw" milk is your best bet for that. If you can get it. Some places don't allow for that. I remember getting milk delivered in a thick bottle every other day (those were the days) where we would have to shake it up. If you live next to a farm, sometimes they will let you have their natural milk. Health food stores?

Raw milk is hard to come by in urban areas now-a-days.

Good on you for not smoking. I quit and it improved my taste immensely. No duh...

I dunno... Maybe try a plain yoghurt?

can anyone help me figure out what this type of coffee is called? Its super strong and I get it from this armenian bakery, its called massis out here in Burbank and Glendale, Ca. It is the strongest, richest, cup of coffee ive ever had next to Cuban coffee

>>11757102
Sure. The bakery can. Ask them what they serve. Why are you asking us and not them?

>>11755884
Plain yogurt, huh?

Also, i live in Omaha, NE, so it's not like we're forever away from farms. Might be something like that available. I'll have to look.

Thanks for all the advice.

>>11757085
yeah, after a quick search I found tons of different coffee sodas... I've just never tried it. Might be good.

>>11757102
https://www.massisbakery.com/showproduct.php?productid=8
You might be able to get information from that sight. But they are Armenian so you may just get a resounding, "NO! You buy or you GET OUT!"

>>11757216
Yeah, check with local farms. Small ones are best for getting raw milk. Some states, it's illegal to sell that and I don't know about the Omaha area. It's spotty in California where I'm at but there are so many small farms in Northern California that you can just talk to them at farmers' markets and most will deliver on a private level.

When I was in Sweden they used Mellanmjölk that literally means “middle milk” on their cereal or musli. Filmjölk is another variation. That's where I got the yogurt idea from. It's the same concept... meaning not quite milk and not quite yogurt but right in between. I remember it being quite a hassle to keep fresh because it would go off so fast and would only be good to put into a septic tank after like a week or so.

>>11757260
>from that *site*

>>11742028
For me, it's cold brew with whole milk, the best way to enjoy coffee at home.

I drink around 2-3 coffees a day and I sugar them up like a fag since I hate the taste. I also happen to have man muffin tops which is the worst affliction that could affect any male specimen. Literally everyone tells me if I cut sugar of that level on a daily basis, I'd lose weight, no doubt. Am I retarded for thinking otherwise?

black is the only correct answer

>>11743999
Trips god, what's your preffered brand of coffee

>>11742028
two milks

>>11757916
No preferred brand, really.
I like a small bag of beans that's been roasted as locally as possible. Meaning that the transportation between the roaster and my kitchen are as minimal as possible.

I'm west coast US, California, so my favorites so far have been the Santa Cruz Roasting Company (they have an on-site roaster and lots of selections), Mother Lode Coffee Roasting Company (have lots of flavored stuff which I personally skip but the basic straight roasts are there) and I can't even begin with the amount of roasters are in the San Francisco area.

Where are you at?

I like the beans that I grind the best.

It's funny, my father likes instant coffee (Folgers) for his normal cup. I say that's funny because he's a wine expert and sommelier and just goes for that as his go - to.

I dunno, whatever works for your flavor palate / stomach. I love instant coffee for making iced-coffee but for the hot I like the beans that I've just ground up. Probably has something to do with the oils.

Folgers, strong and black. 6 cups a day minimum.

I have never been able to drink coffee because it gives me reflux.

>>11758003
6 minimum?
jeez...

>>11758119
I feel ya. I use it when I need it. Used to use it a lot but built up a tolerance combined with too much booze so the stomach gets tender and then *URP*. Reflux sux. (Hey, that's the name of my new band.)

>>11742028
I'm about to take my cat out before it rains and want to warm up. Any recommendation?

I've never got into that routine.
I get it, they're stimulants...
All right, I guess.

I always just drank coffee for being creative like writing or music, etc... Or staying up late at a diner with buddies reading books where they didn't kick you out simply because you weren't causing a problem.

I'm only just getting into my pour over and I find that since it's less bitter it's easier to drink black or with two tsp of sugar vs milk/creamer/half and half

I've got a barrel of Chock Full o Nuts because that's what my ex had at his place and I liked it a lot.

Trying to find something better? Preferably pre ground.

>>11759340
Chock Full o Nuts was a staple for me at Staples!

It's actually really good.

I have to agree the pour over is nicer.

As far as pre-ground, I think you're gonna have to just try out what's in your neighborhood.
Like just talking to your local grocer and see what they've got coming in fresh (or reasonably fresh).

Other than that, I guess check the labeled dated. I know those aren't entirely trustworthy and the canisters are vacuum sealed but it gives you a round about date of packaging.

Cold. Brew light roast
I have two batches going now

In the morning/day: hot, but cool enough i can take a good sip without burning my toung, black, unsweetened
Sometimes, if i want to stay up to get some work done or something but don't want to be up all night, after dinner i'll mix a 50/50 ratio of hot black coffee with pic related for "dessert." It's like a warm, unset coffee/vanilla custard, but less thick and doesn't have the full load of caffiene regular coffee has.

A nice Americano when I'm home,
if outside : the coffee is good, black, if the coffee is bad, two milk, if i already had good coffee and i don't want to get nervous 2 milks.

Like my women, white and sweet

>>11760088
Nice. I like your style.
Gonna have to try that for "dessert", now.

Black. Straight from the pot. No matter the time of the day.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/29511019
>Coconut oil significantly increased HDL-C compared with butter (+0.18, 95%CI 0.06 to 0.30mmol/L) or olive oil (+0.16, 95%CI 0.03 to 0.28mmol/L).

>>11747909
>The guy has been in the nutrition game 30+ years
That's not really an endorsement, anon. Our understanding of nutrition depends more on accumulated test and study results than on personal experience or beard-stroking wisdom.

>>11757102
Are there grounds on the bottom? If so it's probably Turkish coffee or the Armenian equivalent

>>11763401
So coconut oil will give you higher levels of HDL-C (which is good), but levels of LDL-C (which is bad) is comparable to that of olive oil.

still not sure if its worth putting in my coffee but i guess ill start cooking with it more often now.

the other parts of that second article seemed to present no other major differences between coconut and olive oil.

nice article anon, thank you

French press full of black coffee, first cup too hot to sip, last cup ice cold. I kind of like the difference in flavor as it cools down, plus it gets more caffeinated over time so my last cold cup is nice and strong

>>11763494
oh and also I'm 90% sure it's just stockholm syndrome from slowly drinking coffee and not wanting to waste the bottom half of the french press every time. Pretty sure it's totally just that I drank it this way enough as a broke student in university that it ended up being my norm.

>>11760028
Much thanks!!!

>>11763494
Same here.
It's the only thing that makes me regret quitting smoking.

Beanwater guy here. Got some meme coffee, it's a light roast. Actually kind of like it black, though it still feels a bit watery. Might try a hint of cream or milk next time.

>>11765046
That and the satisfaction of rolling them for me.
I would get the best tobacco I could find and use the shittiest paper because they held up better.

Take a coffee mug.
Set it aside.
Open Guinness bottle.
Pour into mug.
Best coffee in the morning.

Then I'd move on to the roasted beans.

God, I miss smoking but I do not regret quitting.

>>11765067
Light roast is actually stronger if you're after the caffeine.

>>11764756
A lot of people order online but that's harder to trust as to what you're getting rather than having it in hand to see if you want to purchase. Like in a bazaar.

>>11746354
Is this that futa club thing Ive seen on /d/ for years?

I heard that. I never notice the effects of caffeine but I'll keep that in mind.

Yeah, that's Futabu. Classic doujin series.

https://www.woolworths.com.au/shop/productdetails/44917/negrita-ground-coffee-turkish-dark-roast

What's the best way to get into brewing your own coffee? Instant coffee either tastes like water or dirt, and convenience store coffee ranges from dirt water to decent, but isn't ever price effective.

>>11766037
buy a pourover cone and a grinder
both cost $10

>>11742028
why the fuck do you care?

>>11765459
Actually to clarify, while light roast retains more caffeine than that darker roasts it's minuscule, so if your prefer the darker roast just continue with half a refill and you'll probably get more anyhow.

I'm glad to see this thread is still going after 5 days. The only other place I see that is on the origami one which can last for years...
Nice.

>>11757102
Are you seeing this?!?!?!L >>11742028

I'll be honest, I had to laugh at woolworths and negrita and the part about it coming through Australia but I'd bet a lot to say that's what the guy talking about Armenian coffee is after ...or the closest you can get online.

>>11766053
Seconded.
Would do this at work for years.
Always yields great results.

Somebody hasn't had their cup of coffee today...
Or too much.

>>11742028
Light.
One scoop per 12 cup pot.

Black. With a few drops of sweetener if I'm having it hot, without if I'm having it iced. Milk/cream doesn't do anything for me besides maybe aesthetics.

>>11766053
Yes. You have great control with this method.
Practice makes perfect.

>>11766250
fuckin beautiful

>>11763459
If you cook with it, won't it change the chemical structure to the bad stuff?
I get it, not being heated up and all but I keep hearing that when you heat those oils up they turn into the bad version for cholesterol.

I know the body will make cholesterol anyway.

Anybody here ever tried that coffee from civet poop? I've always wondered about that stuff...

>>11759044
You sound like you grew up without a father figure

>>11767216
Ha! You could say that.

I've still got a father but hardly a father "figure".
We never played catch or build stuff together or anything like that.
He was too nerdy to be bothered, even though he was on a baseball team.

My point was that coffee was great for me in things like math. All of a sudden math made sense after a double espresso mocha. And hanging out with friends recording music was may more productive when we were on caffeine than pot. That's all.

>>11763401
>citing one study vs. many including several meta-studies
I don't think so, anon. It's pretty dim to accept a single study as proof over an increasing body of evidence that shows coconut oil isn't nearly as good as it's marketed.

>>11766959
oh shit idk man i didnt think of that

>>11767065
The coffee is made from coffee beans, collected from civet poo. The civets eat the coffee fruit, and the bean does not get digested so passes through, gets collected and made into coffee.
