1 cup black, monk fruit, MCT oil and butter

no more, caffeine is a drug and is easily abused

today ive only had two, yesterday i had four. my average is probably about 2.5

Found a cute little rock in my green coffee this morning. It's reddish brown, looks kind of like a piece of red brick, but with the exact shape of a coffee bean; it's hemispherical. I put it into my quaker cup. If a commercial roaster had gotten this it very well could have made it into the coffee and destroyed someone's grinder. Pretty much the exact color of the roasted coffee. Thanks for reading my blog.
:)

Made two today. Tried those turbo bloom flair shots again. This time they tasted meh. Still had some bitterness.
Made a huge mess because they sprayed so much. Now I know that the spout that came with my machine has a use.

>>17649840
I used to drink so much black coffee. Now I am down to a single cup a day. I really want to get off this shit but I love the taste, routine, and I get massive headaches if I go past 30 hours without it.

>>17649840
what even is a cup of coffee?

>>17649840
I like those mugs and mug plates. very soulful.
1 kofe for me today, probably.

>>17649842

Just taper down by mixing in decaf
I drink 1100 ml of 10% caffeinated coffee every day

>>17651795
Ah so manbuns were meant for a better grip for the top. Now I truly understand

>>17651869
bussy knob

>>17649914
You just need to have a plan to taper your coffee consumption
I used to drink 32oz a day because I'd fill my tumbler twice. I started doing half decaf to get use to less caffeine.
Once I got used to it, I moved to a single full caffeine brew in the morning and slightly downsized to ~14oz

>>17651795
is that horsecocklover69?

DF64 are on sale for 385$

oh i thought it was vaush, nevermind.

That price doesn't include SSP burrs

Hello anons I have a question about coffee, I have a Coffee percolator and a French press and my problem is that the coffee that I brew is too "watery", idk if thats the way to describe it but I want to make it more "thick" like the coffee that I buy in coffee shops. Is there a way to brew it, I need more ingredients or something like that?

>>17652279
haha holy shit so did I

>>17652678
use less water

>>17649840
love coffee

>>17652678
>I have a Coffee percolator
throw this away, it can only make burnt coffee.
>French press
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=st571DYYTR8

>>17652734
But isn't 2 tablespoons of coffee in a 250ml cup the best combination?
>>17652739
thx I'll watch it

I just want a cup of coffee with steamed milk but the coffee store near me only has 'cafe au lait' on the menu.
I don't want to ask for it like that and sound like a sperg, what do I say instead?

>>17649840
xth post for that retard that doesn't know espresso-capable hand grinders are real

>>17652811
Ratio for french press is 1:12 to 1:16 grams coffee to water. 2tbsp should be around 10g so obviously not close

>>17652811
>2 tablespoons

>>17651527

>>17652989
the retard is back

>>17652314
I know, but I don’t know how the df64 with the spp burrs compares to the niche since they would be close to same price

>>17653038
In theory it should be better since it is generally agreed that SSPs are superior to the conical Mazzer burrs in the Niche but I don't trust the chinkshit housing of the DF64 which contains those burrs.

>>17649840
At work? Way too many. Today was a 20h day - I think I had 8 cups of coffee, 2 cappuccinos and then I got a vietnamese iced coffee for the drive home before we got kicked off site.

>>17653064
I should just save up for Lagom p64 maybe?

Film man... hurry up and wait. They can't expect me not to poison myself with these kind of conditions.

>>17653163
Then I’d need a bean vault?

>>17652898
Ok now I used more coffee (around 15g) and It feel more "thick" but not enough, but the taste was more stronger, didn't liked it desu

>>17653216
Was it too bitter? Did you do the brewing like the video link said to? Are you freshly grinding your beans? What temp water are you using? What level of roast? How much exposure to air/light have your beans had and how old are they?

>>17653256
Yeah, but I realized I'm using a moka coffee (from a company called monterrey) which is more stronger and bitter lol I'm stupid.
desu don't know how much quality and price differences would be between a more specialized coffee and one bought in the supermarket.

>>17649840
So what's the deal with chain coffee shop cold brew? When I make it myself it's the smoothest way I can make it (it's how I drank it when I was getting used to black coffee), but whenever I buy it from a restaurant it's so bitter. One time the barista offered to refund me just from the look on my face after I tasted it.
Are they using some kind of process where it's accelerated and not actually cold brewed?

What's some good coffee I can order online

>>17650815
I'm over by the sink pouring my coffee out because it tastes like grinds again.

>>17653413
Starbucks iced coffee used to be an instant coffee - not sure if it still is. If memory serves it was supposed to be made with hot water, then iced.

>>17653432
Their iced coffee is fine (by which I mean burned-tasting and overpriced, their baseline), cold brew is a separate product.

>>17653440
I thought they just switched over... chances are it's supposed to be a cold brewed product that everyone forgets to check on, and then rushes with hot water because they nearly ran out.

Why do some spices not dissolve in hot water and is there some solution to make them do it? I like cinnamon and nutmeg in mine but they always settle and I have to stir before every sip which is annoying.

>>17649840

root for her in the world barista championship

Right /ck/, I need coffee glass advice.

I'm looking for a double walled coffee glass with a single walled lip/top. That way my small pours can stay warm, but I don't have to deal with the double walled glass thickness at the drinking edge. Currently I've found the Fellow Stagg Tasting Glass, and the Kruve EQ glasses.

The Kruve EQ look like hipster nonsense, and the stagg glasses look like glorified jars. Both are inordinately expensive for what they are. Does anyone know of some generic brand coffee/tea/whatever glass that's double walled at the bottom, single walled at the top, and not priced for fashion?

>>17655387
oh i'll be rooting her thats for sure.

I found a gaggia classic (not the new model) used for e80, but I don't know anything about maintaining espresso machines. How badly could it be fucked?

>>17656085
I told the faggot kingrinder shill to shut the fuck up and you chimed in schizoposting about the fucking Gaggia, just shut the fuck up god damn When people ask ITT "what is the cheapest way to do X" you need to just tell them to lurk more or get a different hobby.

kingrinder chads making the resident general tranny having a breakdown I see

Yeah I'm thinking kingrindersissies are absolutely seething right now

Wtf bros we can't let those Chinese shill their product here. Don't you know they got banned from the coffee subreddit

>>17656289
you're telling someone who knows nothing about coffee to go buy a chinkshit hand grinder that takes significant time and effort to grind coffee

>>17656309

Why would I ever by a cuckmandante clone when I can get a FULLY STEPLESS, FULLY STEEL-BURRED, ESPRESSO-CAPABLE, FACTORY SECONDS chinkshit clone for only $60????

>>17656325
why the fuck is this $30 now surely that's a scam

>>17649840
just one. i've been trying to cut back because fresh beans are expensive ($18 for a bag at the local specialty roaster, but in reality i wind up spending $30 each trip because i wind up getting a latte and a pastry to go as well). i used to destroy a bag in two weeks but i've been stretching it out to a month or longer. finding myself drinking tea to fill in the void. but still can't go 2-3 days without warming up the silvia to make myself a flat white.

>>17656352
There is no reason for a grinder to cost more than $30

>>17656337
Gotta wait for the k19 for that heptagonal burr set. Shilling soon to a thread near you.
>>17656352
Probably. Aliexpress is p good at refunding you if shit doesn't show up though. Just have to remember. I almost want to order one to give away if it shows up.

Just got back from salvation army. Managed to snag a massively tarnished julep strainer for $6.50. Project $35 homebar is looking up!

>>17656424
Imagine needing a strainer. You can make the entire IBA catalogue with nothing but a set of shaker tins (which cost no more than $10), Earlytimes, and some lemons.

>>17649840
I'd drink between 2 - 8 "shots" per day (i.e. 30mls per shot) depending on what I'm doing or where I am.

I work as a sales manager for a coffee wholesaler though... so that might be a bit different to normal people

>>17656437
DAMN BITCH WHY YOU SPILLIN MY FUCKIN COFFEE EVERYWHERE!!!!! SHIT!!! THIS SHIT COSTS $23 PER 340G BAG BITCH!!!

>>17656444
Jesus man... you're getting ripped off...

How close is coffee sweetness to bitterness in your guys' experience? I just poured a cup with decent sweetness and it registers very similarly to bitterness, just more sugary. Was wondering if you felt the same or my tastebuds are just fucked up

>>17656436
I've got a 1964 copy of old mr boston that would have cratered homeboy's budget.

>>17656474
It's about balance bro.

You balances the acidity with the body and the sweetness.

If you're getting a coffee that is bitter and heavy then it's been roasted dark and it means it's missing some of the acidity.

You roast it very light and it tastes like fruit juice in milk.

Neither of these are wrong, it's just peoples flavour profiles.

Most coffee "connoisseurs" like light roasts because there are far more flavours to play with and your roasting profile actually makes a difference. Once you pass the 2nd crack it all tastes the same (i.e. heavy and bitter).

>>17656470
Yeah good coffee costs a little bit more than Aldin breakfast blend (the one with the rooster on it)

>>17656591
But kirkland columbian supremo costs 4/5ths as much and is 1/4th as good!

Is there any instant coffee that doesn't taste like complete shit without sugar? I normally only have a little under 1 sugar in mine but i'm thinking of cutting out sugar for a while, but Moccona and Nescafe are undrinkable without a little sweetness to them.

>>17657405
>bplus puck screen
>normcore puck screen
I'm pretty sure the original flair58 puckscreens were from the bplus oem and I just bought a normcore for the tea portafilter. They are sliiiiiiiiiightly different. Normcore feels a little more dense? Not going to do any head to head so I don't contaminate the tea one for now, but its mildly interesting.

>>17657864
espresso was made by italians therefore it is inherently gay.

use a moka pot instead BUT dont use it the way they use it, because they way they use it is objectively wrong and makes bad burnt acidic coffee the fact that the italians made the moka pot with a lid is all you have to know to know they dont know what they are doing.

Ask yourself:

Do I enjoy drinking espresso? And then ask: do I enjoy making espresso? Because the answers to these questions can be different, at least it it is for me.

I went and got a whole set-up and I just pour-over all the time, never use the machine itself. I just hate how fucking tedious puck prep is, I thought I'd like it but it's not all it's chalked up to be.

If you hate how tedious puck prep is with an automatic then you should get a meme lever espresso "machine" where you also have to manually control temperature and pressure in addition to puck prep and time. Like all of the fucking stupid retarded newfags ITT recommend to people looking to get into espresso.

>tried making cowboy coffee
>it's actually incredibly smooth if you just let gravity take care of the grinds
It feels like cheating somehow. I outdid my french press and drip coffee for 0$, when you have anons ITT spending who knows how much.

>>17658271
I did actually and I hated it but for some reason I thought I'd like a semi-auto that takes up 5 times the space and has a steam wand because espresso is so heckin awesome, pinnacle of coffee bullshit.

>>17658280
>>tried making cowboy coffee
>>it's actually incredibly smooth if you just let gravity take care of the grinds

get a Hario switch or a clever and never deal with grinds then. literally just cowboy coffee through a paper filter

>>17658280
I'll only ever do it hungover while camping. Turkish - no problem, but full on boil the coffee to death in a cauldron over the coals? I have to be in a state for that.

>>17658297
>boil
I did it just short of a boil. You don't just leave it boiling while it brews... right?

>>17658311
depends how masochistic I'm feeling. Usually I get it to the boil, add the coffee and lift the pot to keep it warm... if Jim Beam is screaming at me from beyond the grave, I'll cook it down to tar and use enough cream to return it to a liquid state.

>>17658318

I don't understand why you continue to intentionally miss the point and constantly act like an obstinate retard. There is a retarded fucking monkey posting in this thread right now complaining that puck prep for an automatic is too much work. Like I said before, but you continue to ignore, these are the kind of people who drink kcups and nespresso pods. And you are recommending that the kind of person who finds using an automatic to be tedious buy a manual lever. You are so braindead it's unreal. Then you project your poverty onto others because you are too poor to afford a real espresso machine and people making fun of your meme lever makes you seethe.

>>17658390
>intentionally miss the point and constantly act like an obstinate retard. There is a retarded fucking monkey posting in this thread right now complaining that puck prep for an automatic is too much work.
Except he never said a single fucking word about it being an automatic. Thats all you. All we know is its a cheap single boiler right now. Take your time. Read the comments fully.

i don't care whether or not someone makes their own espresso but the issue i have is that the barrier of entry is very high. plus, if you're making bomb coffee and espresso yourself, why would you ever have a reason to visit a cafe? i like going to cafes.

What does a good coffee taste like?
Start drinking coffee recently then I realized I have no idea how a good cup is supposed to taste

Bought a moka pot recently
Started with pre-ground which taste just bitter
then I bought a grinder and got some medium roast beans
The coffee tastes a lot more flavorful and acidic now (dunno if it is too sour, but I assumed most coffee are inherently sour?)
But I still can't taste the fruity note or sweetness people said online.

>>17660061
Fruity just describes the acidity of the coffee. Chocolatyness is the bitterness.

>>17659997

>>17659830
Getting lower by the day. Decent, espresso capable grinders have never been more available. From kinus and eezypressos to mignons to df64s. It's pretty easy to put together a sub 500 setup.

>>17656474
Some coffees are sweeter than others, but sweetness of a particular coffee is enhanced by roasting darker, up to a point. A real life city to full city roast will have a more developed sweetness profile as the carbohydrates in the beans caramelize or whatever, but going a little too dark will pull out darker, bitter roasty flavors which compete with the sweetness more than compliment it (imo). Lighter roasted coffees can still be sweet, but it tends to be a more juice-like, acidic sweetness and reads less sweet on the tongue. Depends on what you're going for and what you're working with. So my point isn't that you're misreading sweet and bitter, but that they may both simply be present. Roasting is very nuanced, I guess. This is just coffee. But I know what you mean about the sweet/bitter thing. Those artificial sweeteners are often bitter. I don't know why.

>>17660559
You'll probably shit out chunks tho. Its the fine particles that will fuck you and accumulate. Like from an abrasive acid medium rubbing against it with hot water to weaken the plastic lol. The paper filter will still catch m o s t of it but theres going to be bypass.

Coffeefrens say something nice about Bicerin.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicerin

>>17660759
Literally just a mocha

>>17660769
Mocha is caffè latte but with chocolate mixed it, Bicerin has them layered in a specific order and you shouldn't mix, the flavour hits differently. Another difference is the shape of the glass which is supposed to be a small glass.

Anyone else notice an uptick in anti-coffee posting throughout 4chan? Coffeebros, did we get too cocky?

>>17661110
The elites are planting the seeds of anti-coffee rhetoric within the masses. Coffee will soon be villainized as a tool of oppressing third worlders that contributes to global warming, and will become and an expensive specialty product only available to the elites. For the masses, it will eventually be superseded by zogbrew made from roasted barley and chicory.

>>17661143
This is a good thing, we shall go back to the old days we're only the intellectual elite and nobles drinking coffee at expensive and exclusive cafes.

why wait when technology "what can brown do for you" connections has already shown that the percolator can only make burnt coffee.

>>17660084
wrong on the fruity part, some light roasts do actually taste of fruit and flowers. not like "oh yeh i really taste apple" but more like a general fruit taste or generic "mixed berry" notes are pretty common in high quality light roasted coffee. i have experienced this many many many times and its not a placebo either.

and for dark roasts i would say that is generally correct. at most its going to taste like high quality 100% dark chocolate, and sometimes how "chocolaty" it is can describe how harshe or smooth it is, because you can have extremely harsh bitter and relatively smooth bitter.

>>17661143
I've read that Nicaraguans can't get enough fertilizer for their coffee which means there will be a smaller yield. I don't know if other countries are having the same problem, but be on the lookout for a rise in coffee prices.

the problem is that most people and even the makers of the moka pot just let it sit until us much coffee has been brewed as possible, doing this means the water will channel through the puck and spurt out the top and make a huge mess, this is why they added a lid so then when it spurts it is contained within the moka pot. the problem is that if your moka pot is even close to spurting your coffee is already ruined, so if you use it correctly it will never spurt and doesnt require a lid.

you need to eyeball the place in the pot where the coffee is at its maximum before a spurt will soon occur, you need to be watching and waiting and as soon as it reaches that invisible line take it off the heat and run cold water over the base or submerge the entire base in a pot of cold water. this stops the brewing process and doesnt allow any bad coffee to be brewed and mixed in with your good coffee ruining it, even if it spurts for a second your entire brew is fucked and it will taste and smell noticeably worse in every way. this is why the moka pot has such a bad reputation. because idiots dont know how to use it.

Stirring espresso is so fun. I like the brown on brown patterns it makes

Certified retard. No western society has a real right wing party or political representation. Genuine right wing politics have been untenable for decades. What we have is social liberalism (socialist) parties, and classical/neoliberal parties. Both of which are different flavours of left wing.
You don’t know what ‘right wing’ or ‘left wing’ means.

I buy the Costco size drums of Maxwell house or Folgers every so many months based on whatever's cheaper or on sale. On Sundays, I run it through a cold brew pitcher, and transfer each batch into an empty 1.75 liter liquor bottle keep it in the fridge. I slug back one 10 ounce glass of the stuff every morning during the week, and never more than one cup per day.

Anyone else just buy the cheapest shit and not a coffee snob?
