did I get memed? I can't drink instant with water but it goes great with milk, no need for sugar at all. It's a holy pairing in my books, like bread and butter.

Maybe you're memeing yourself? I'm using a Bialetti for everyday coffee now, but when I was using a french press, the coffee needed a very precise temperature and time to brew. Like, overshoot it by 5 seconds and it's gonna be undrinkable-precise. If it doesn't taste fine without milk, you're doing something (whatever that may be) wrong.

Whether it's upward or downward, a change is a change, you'll have to get used to this new product before you can start comparing. Went from a 20€ guitar to a 600€ one and had some harsh buyer remorse right in the beginning, but now I couldn't go back.

french press is shite. it's barely a step up from just brewing the grounds right in the mug.
you need a moka pot or an aeropress, unless you want to spend a ton on a proper espresso machine.

I bet you're not buying beans that were freshly roasted and temping and timing your brews either. Just go back to instant coffee man.

Brew the coffee properly with hot water, then put it in the fridge to cool down.

You're comparing a cold latte to a coffee my dude. I like to take the pretentious coffee my gf makes and put hot chocolate mix in it, the sugar cjts the bitter and the chocolate pairs great with what's left, makes a great drink

If you're gonna try it with milk, you need something strong like espresso, mokka pot, or Turkish coffee. Otherwise, the coffee gets overpowered by milk.
