goffee?

>>18642964
goffee.

its the end of black friday and still no discount on bripe

hows that aeropress working out for you, anon?

is DIY the only option for an aeropress that isn't plastic? there's nothing out there?

roasterchads, where are you getting your beans? any specific bean recs? I feel like half the beans I get from happy mug are just meh. I love ethiopians, light roast costa rica, light peru, some colombians. anything fruity or just easy drinking light roast is my shit

Gonna make a cup of coffee at like 2am lads, wish me luck. I need some caffeine to get through travel tomorrow. I bought an ethiopian light roast and it smells like blueberries. Aeropress gang

>>18642943
Should I get a moka pot or a pour over coffee maker?

>>18643331
both are kino. moka makes smaller vol, espresso-like coffee. great if u like darker roasts and "bold" coffee. pour over makes larger amounts of coffee, and is especially good for making fruitier light roasts. much more of a learning curve for pour over though, and you need to get a gooseneck kettle

>>18643373
moka pot tastes like unfiltered aeropress with less control over the final product. doesn't taste like espresso at all

>>18642998
kenya

Kenya get me some sumatra while you're out?

>>18642943
Any good light roast recs for someone who usually prefers dark? I like the sound of trying a more flavorful coffee

>>18643546
do a light roast from south america, like colombia or guatemala. youll still get some of those chocolate notes you like but along with fruitier notes. remember to brew at a hotter temp

>>18643570
south or central america*. this roaster does very tasty lighter roasts and does 1lb bags for the same price as the usual 12oz, so you wont feel as bad about wasting coffee as you dial in :^)

>>18643576

life is hard

>>18643578
Nice. Took a look at some Peruvian beans, seems like something I'd enjoy. Prices are really good like you said. Thanks for the recommendation

Anyone try coffee enema?

>>18642994
>She's still scared of microplastics

>>18642994
Just switch to pour over already

What do?

>>18643956
'um on 'atte

I've started my first batch of cold brew coffee.
13 hours until I can see how it turns out.

>>18643956
Go on a hour long rant about how I hate normalfag anime and get escorted out by police

I want to go get coffee but I just took a really messy shit and I haven't changed clothes or showered in a few days. I don't feel like taking a shower right now so I'm just gonna have to suffer in silence.

>>18644329
they deal with worse every day.

>>18644249
I hope they hit you a few times

I got a latte, which is espresso with milk. It was kind of tasteless and bitter but I put two packets of splenda in it and now it's ok.

>>18644436
sounds like a tasty lil' bitch. Will have to try it later

>>18643929
>you dont know anything
i have a moka pot, aeropress, various pourover cones, and espresso machine. moka pot is the least repeatable / most restrictive / most inconsistent. i never said you cant make a good cup of coffee with it, but it'd be the last one I go for on a daily basis

>>18642943
Guys should I actually drop 1k on a GCP+niche setup?
I have a DeLonghi Magnifica XS, and while it isn’t phenomenal it makes ~decent~ espresso/milk drinks when using good beans

>>18644503
>Guys should I actually drop 1k on a GCP+niche setup?
dont have any experience with it, but the GCP doesn't have a PID, so if I bought one I'd mod it. also I do more medium & light roasts so I'd go DF64 with SSP MP or HU burrs over Niche

>>18644514
Yeah that’s the plan, modding it with a gaggiuino for pressure control, PID, etc.
I like the way niche looks so that’s why I was thinking about it over the “niche killer” DF64

>grinder dialed in
>water temperature dialed in
>bloom (mostly) dialed in
>pour technique decent
>making decent V60 cuppas
Feelin good.
That said, is it normal to still have bubbles coming up during the main pour? I'm blooming for 45-50 seconds, then doing pulse pours, but I'm finding even with 150-200ml of water I'm still seeing bubbles come up from the coffee.
50ml (usually closer to 55-60 in reality) on 15g of coffee.

>9.5 hours until cold brewing is done

>>18644553
nice is gonna be fine if you're a fan of the traditional italian style espresso from conical espresso burrs - more body, more combined flavors. if you're into the more modern style, then you'll want flat. or just get one that you prefer now and get the other down the road

Any coffee that smells like gasoline?

>>18644663
Sumatra

>mfw out of brazilian butt coffee

>>18644560
nah, those bubbles are indicators of pockets of mostly dry coffee coming into contact with water. Try swirling or stirring the bloom better.

>>18644936
>mfw still have a large supply of brazilian butt coffee

Is it worth it to get an all in one grinder/drip coffee maker? I'm going to get a drip coffee maker and I might as well combine all the steps as long as they work okay

I decided to get some Dunkin' Donuts, but I need to spend 45 euros to get some without paying 10 euros delivery. I got some bags of coffee, etc. but then realised that they have some glasses for sale that'd cover the extra cost. What's the difference between espresso glasses & macchiato glasses? I was under the illusion that a macchiato was just an espresso with foam.

>>18645480
Like, it looks like the same shit

>>18645480
>Europeans actually spend $45 buying meaningless shit they don't need just to get a cup of mediocre coffee
If they can deliver it you without it being freezing cold, you can take public transport to the actual store and buy it like a normal person. Should cost less than 10 euros, you can have it fresh in store and you would actually get out of your cave for once.
Fucking Europeans man.

>>18645550
I'm buying bags of beans, Anon.

do i keep my backup coffee in its retail packaging for the freezer or place it in a container?

>>18645480
Are you buying it because you're curious? Dunkin is one of the best cheap mass-market coffees in the US. It is not specialty coffee. It is merely decent coffee and a good choice amongst other coffees in its price bracket. Do not overpay if you had the impression this is exceptional coffee.

>>18645591
I vacuum seal mine.

>>18645626
I'm a little curious, but it's actually for my girlfriends Mother coming over. She loves coffee, but only Dunkin. I usually shop from a specialty coffee place near me for my coffee. I'm not American, and Dunkin' Donuts is in the middle of nowhere & a bother to travel to (at least 40 minutes in an area with not much to do for me.)

>always grind the same size
>always brew for the same duration
>got sludge for the 1st time
does this mean my strainer is broken or was I just too drunk and agitated the carafe too much before pouring into my cup

2 days without any coffee i lost 30iq(for a rok chad that is iq i cant afford to lose) and turned into a zombie

>>18646178
maybe your burrs are out of alignment causing more fines than usual.

>>18646333
yeah I'll try brewing again later to see if it will go back to normal

What are some reasonably priced alternatives to the Rok grinder?

I want none of my money going towards jew gimmicks like motors or 'portability'
Burrs should be the most expensive part of the grinder.

how much of a meme are the wooden hario grinders?

>>18646363
A well aligned housing is far more expensive to machine than burrs.

Do I really need a $200+ coffee bean hand grinder for my pour over brews?

>>18646363
Precision metal construction is ubiquitous and cheap for all other types of hardware.
coffee grinders cost as though you're commissioning someone to reinvent the wheel

>>18646386
You’ll get the best, but 100-150 is probably a good sweet spot that will get you most of the way there. I got a 200 k-max and I don’t regret it

>>18646363
>to the Rok grinder?
none
the rok is the best and cheapest manual grinder with a vertical crank.

>>18646463
> I got a 200 k-max and I don’t regret it
I can only find the k-ultra on Amazon, so I just got that

>>18646386
No but you'd be able to taste the difference if you had one. Just get the k6 that's on sale at Amazon for 99 or if thats too much just get the c2

>>18643527
Based

>>18644887
Wrong. Best coffee aroma ever. Everything else smells weak or stale.

>>18646420
Sounds like you should have no problem making what you want then. Buy a set of burrs, find a local machine shop.

What's decaf espresso like, does it still taste like coffee?
I'm gonna try it eventually, but I've got 1kg of Sumatra to go through

I want to move on from shitty instant coffee, how do I make good coffee in an unexpensive way? Something that doesn't take 30 steps to prepare.

>>18646985
yes.
from my experience it tastes more... planty i guess.
but it does taste like coffee.

>>18646995
how much money do you want to spend

>>18647003
That sounds great actually

>>18647009
it was mexico el tucan decaf
but i havent had it in a while since i dont really need decaf, but i never had it so i tried it and thought yeh this isnt too bad.

>>18646995
Mokapot
Get one of those Chinese manual grinders when they're on sale
A glass milk frother that you can put in the microwave to warm up the milk before you froth it
Shouldn't cost a lot more than 90$ for everything. This stuff makes very good coffee. Better than what you'd pay 5$ for in most stores.

After you get all that look for a place that roasts coffee with you

>>18647019
>with you
near you
A local roaster that offers a lot of free samples is too fun

>>18646995
plunger or pourover
find a local roaster and get them to grind the beans for you.
pick somewhere popular, and the beans they sell in bags will have been sitting on the shelves for less time.

>>18647019
>This stuff makes very good coffee.
only after you learn how to.
and most people are wrong.
especially italians.
never trust italians on anything.

>>18647041
They don't actually say that you shouldn't wash your mokapot, do they? Just a meme right

>>18647044
they do.
they also say to just use whatever dark roast pre ground trash you have laying around
also they say use cold water
they also say just let that bitch run dry, keep it on the heat with the lid down and make sure it gets really loud and sputtery
a good moka for them tastes like burnt acidic dish water.

they are so fucking retarded it hurts.
i hate that my favorite coffee brewing method was invented by those clowns.

>>18647058
>tfw induction stove
whats a cheap alternative to the coffee-dedicated heat diffusers?

>>18647062
just buy an induction moka.

time for an after dinner goffee.

>>18647067
fuck year evening goffee

>>18646351 (me)
yeah it turns out I just poured the first brew without care so sludge got in the cup

>>18647100
silly goose :)

>>18647071
evening cortado has been made.

>>18647125
very nice

>>18647148
i got some random beans from my local roaster
they aight
i fucked up the timing on my order of good beans and there is flooding or some shit between me and the roaster so im probably going to have to drink this stuff for the next week.
thats life i guess.

>>18647159
C'est la vie!
I don't like cortados doe. If I want it with milk, I make a jumbo latte size.
Actually it's morning for me. Better make some 'presso, but I need to clean my comandante before I open the new beans

>my sleep schedule is fucked so I slept through my cold brew's finish time by several hours.
I hate myself so fucking much.

>>18647237
i cant imagine it ruining the taste.

Is there a french press where the plunger is made up of 1 whole material? I'm getting tired of having to disassemble it to clean it.

>>18647266
i dont think you are doing it right if its that hard to clean?

>>18647266
but then you wouldn't be able to disassemble it and shit would get stuck inside the mesh forever

>>18647275
It's not that I find it hard. I just find it tedious.
>>18647280
I mean, is there no plunger where it's just mesh welded to a rod that passes through the lid?

>>18647291
but then nothing would keep the shape of the mesh, nothing would push it against the sides of the pot

People give Dunkin' Donuts a bad wrap, but I just made myself an espresso and it was pretty alright.

>>18645699
Ah. Well that's nice of you. Yeah, it's not bad coffee.

Yesterday I tried the espresso from my coffee place. Now I'm going to try their regular coffee and see what happens.

Do you ever fantasize about running your own comfy little coffee shop?

Made a cortado today.
…eh. It’s just a stronger latte.
I still don’t get the appeal of milk drinks, is it for people who can’t tolerate straight espresso?

>>18647908
No. I like coffee but it is a hobby not a career. I went to college and got a real degree (not philosophy/English/etc.) for a reason

>>18647908
No. Because there would be too many shitty customers who would want something shitty, stupid, or unavailable that was not coffee. This would be outside of the scope of running a good small business. People have been ruined by Starbucks, which is the Walmart of coffee. I would get so tired of trying to politely tell them that I don't have 10 different kinds of milkshakes or 12 different soymilk alternatives that I'd probably snap eventually and turn into the soup nazi. Best I can fantasize about is a food truck that sells 2 or 3 different coffees and 2 or 3 different preparations. Customers can go away and sit on park benches or wherever. I have no idea how you can be a little guy and make any money with ridiculous overhead and ridiculous customer requests.

>>18647065
My aluminium moka pot was a gift. i'm looking for alternatives to continually buying cans of meth(ane) for my gas burner

>>18647978
by which, I mean God Ryokutya-tane

>>18647908
Yes I would only serve light roast Kenya, not stock any milk, and dogs and laptops are banned.

>>18647908
I fantasize about owning a laundry mat underneath an apartment building I own. No reason there couldn't be a cafe in there too. Just tripledip the fuck out of every paycheck in the building.

>>18647908
No, I fantasize about running a manga shop. Maybe I'd sell coffee and coffee gear too since hario is japanese so I can tie it in with that.

>>18647733
would that be extremely painful?

>>18647969
Yeah I briefly considered if I could feasibly run a cafe and my final thoughts were that nobody would want to pay the premium for good quality coffee and that it would be wasted on them anyways as they would want to ruin it with dollops of sugar syrup and enough milk/cream to turn it pure white. So I'd lovingly make this cup of perfect pourover for someone and they'd go "Okay now please add oatmeal milk and 50g of sugar :)" and I'd have to try to patiently explain to them that I have regular milk, soy milk and almond milk and that's fucking it I don't stock anything else. So they'd bitch and whine and finally settle for almond milk and then they'd drink hot milk and sugar with a tiny tinge of coffee left in it.
I feel like even in a fantasy scenario where I save the life of some billionaire and he says he'll pay all the expenses and I can run a cafe with literally zero worries of profiting I still wouldn't want to do it just because customers would shit all over my vision and disillusion me with their incredibly poor taste and inability to enjoy anything in life.

What's the benefit of drinking black coffee other than saving on sugar and creamer?

>>18648040
The only people who drink black coffee are people who want to seem more mature. It's performative faggotry.

>>18648053
It's fine to admit your taste buds never matured.

How much sugar should one put in coffee? I had a latte for the first time this morning and it took 2-3 splendas before it tasted good.

>>18648040
If it's done well it tastes perfectly nice even without additional things, and adding stuff to it just kinda dilutes the taste.

>>18648058
Now try it with half that next time.

>>18648040
getting tired of milk, not really that much of a sweet tooth
is there anything else that is good to add in coffee?

>>18648129
Tonic water.

>>18648129

I like the convenience of the all-in-one design, I just don’t know if the machine will break or if it’s indestructible like other La Pavoni products.

>>18648355
I had a dream the other night about digging coffee filters out of the trash and eating the spent coffee grounds out of them with a spoon. I had forgotten all about this dream until I read your post.

>>18648456
woah
is it good tho

>>18648040
you don't develop a sugar addiction

you know I thought I would be suffering getting stuck with this for awhile but it makes fairly passable cups. all it took was filling it with close to boiling water and decanting into an insulated carafe. the 5 hole shower head is small but so is the bed, and even though it sprays with violence enough to stick grounds to the walls of the filter, the resulting bed is surprisingly flat. pretty happy with it as a stopgap measure for $20.

>>18648040
I'm counting calories so avoiding unneccesary calories is a big bonus, especially with how effective black coffee is as an appetite suppressant
it further incentivises me to make black coffee taste as good as possible and has yielded good results so far on both fronts

>>18648496
Does the filter basket look like the sides of the toilet bowl when you take a diarrhea dump?

>>18648496
>filling it with close to boiling water
This sterilizes the microplastics for consumption.

maybe someone's, but not mine typically.

Where's all the French Press chads at?

>>18648129
my first cup has some nonrefined coconut oil with a cinnamon/cayenne spice mix. my second cup is black. It's very nice

>>18648533
What a stupid design choice to have the plunger not go all the way to the bottom.

>>18648533
im here bro using my espro everyday

>>18648553
Big fan of strong coffee?

>>18648523
cold brew

I don't actually understand what pressing the French Press plunger down does.
Like, the coffee grounds are still immersed in the water aren't they?

>>18648578
Just separates the grounds from the coffee for the most part. Silt still comes up, but it settles down to the bottom of the carafe. The last bit of the last cup is shit. The mesh is the first filter. Gravity is the second filter.

>>18648578
Depends. Did you use less grounds than how far the plunger goes? Then it does nothing. Hoffmeme method has you push down to the top of the coffee so you don't actually press on the grounds at all. Pressing down all the way also increases the amount of fines/dust/sludge if you have the average quality french press. With an espro you actually do need to press down all the way and do it multiple times since the filters are so fine a lot of the liquid is actually stuck.

>>18648604
lots of people misuse the french press though with very heavily overextractions as they just leave the grounds immersed while leaving it on the table for breakfast or w/e

>>18648599
I mean yeah it keeps the grounds out of your pour but like... I always figured if you were doing immersion brewing like that you would want to completely remove the grounds from the water like you do with a tea steeper.
I figured maybe an advanced French press plunger would be watertight with a tapered container, so as you get to the bottom you seal the grounds and they're unable to continue steeping in the main coffee. You'd lose a bit of coffee/water to the bottom of the press of course but that's just the sacrifice necessary.
Alternatively you'd have something like a cold brew container/tea strainer where once the coffee has finished extracting you just pull the filter full of coffee out of the container and dump it out in the trash.

>>18648555
Just think where you'd be if you bought a k5 and espro from the start.

>>18648625
ah but then I would have missed out on getting both on sale!

>>18648636
Yeah but you shattered like 15 Aldi Sus presses in the mean time.

>>18648638
it was 4 bodums before I got some chink all metal press. One of the bodums just randomly shattered when I added the brew water so that really wasn't my fault.
>>18648615
you need to offgas freshly ground beans so cramming them in some kind of strainer would be counterproductive

>>18648648
>you need to off-gas
Well yes, that's what the tapered/plunger does. When you put the beans in for your initial immersion they off-gas around the plunger as it's not an air-tight seal at the top of the press thanks to the slightly tapered construction.
I feel like my idea has to exist because if it doesn't I could probably patent it and make a ton of money but there's no way nobody thought of it before I did.

>>18648674
oh I see so you don't want an immersion brew at all and instead want to do an aeropress?

the secret of the press is not to press

>>18648742
Hey thanks, I'll make note of it. What stopped you?

>>18648758
I was only putting in an order with them to buy filters I don't need. I've got 200ish abacas so I don't need to order the new + ones to test against for a while.
https://www.roguewavecoffee.ca/collections/equipments/products/cafec-abaca-filter-paper-1

>>18648768
Ah I see. Yeah I'll never understand coffee, this guy can make coffee 10 different ways he loves it that much.

>>18648782
I've ordered from them a few times but never tried their coffee. Heard they're a fantastic roaster. If this is an important enough gift you're asking 4chan, that holiday box is probably worth it.

>>18648688
I don't see how it ceases to be an immersion brew just because the brewing is stopped at a fixed interval rather than allowing the coffee to immersion brew for 10-20 minutes on your countertop until it's bitter shitwater.

>>18648792
kek 4chan has more integrity than a lot of the internet and I'd rather take anons opinions on coffee than some 40 year old single lady's blog.
I was also looking at this
https://beanbox.com/coffee-gifts/world-coffee-tour
Some flavor of world coffee, but I'll take your word that what you linked is a good brewer.
He's been a good friend to me, gifts aren't everything but I'd like to treat him to something.

I have a potential gf in my life now, I uh genuinely don't know what to get her, never bought a woman anything and I really don't know what she likes. I'll ask /v/ maybe haha

>>18648843
I bought a 30 year old woman some lol skins for her birthday last night. Toss in a bluray rip of Parasyte the maxim and she was happy.

>4chan has more integrity than a lot of the internet
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA

>>18648796
yeah I guess if any water touches coffee it is by definition an immersion brew lmfao

>>18648862
He's unironically correct

>>18648856
kek based. The simple things are always the best I'll try not to overthink it. Thanks again

>>18648904
So is a French press only an immersion brew if you drink directly from the press instead of pouring it into a cup?

>>18647987
>light roast kenya
absolutely vile

>>18648993
Its only an immersion brew all grounds stay immersed at all times, brewing and drinking. I find a yerba mate straw helps me sip straight out of the press.

>>18648533
I use one but have no strong affections for it

>>18649035
Honestly you should just make Turkish. That way you ingest the grounds and they continue to immersion brew inside of your body until you gracelessly expel them into your underwear.

>>18649040
This is a bripe thread friendo.

He is. 4chan is the only place left on the internet where you can get an honest review or a confirmation that an outside review is legitimate. Everywhere else is full of shills and self-censorship. If something sucks 4chan loves to let you know that.

>>18647963
for me i just like thicker drinks
also i just enjoy making milk drinks.
i just made a great cortado.
idk i just think its fun :)

>>18649673
As long as you enjoy yourself that's all that matters :)

>>18644562
I want to do it myself,but I don't have the patience. Picrel is good

>>18647908
i think an autistic cafe would be fun
like one built to be as quiet as possible
i am autistic and i get sensory overload very easy so i hate cafes because electric grinders and espresso machines and milk steamers are so fucking loud its painful
so i think a silent cafe would be nice. not like you cant talk but the actual making of coffee and food and all that would be as quiet as possible.

obviously we would only use the rok grinder and E&B Lab moka pots

>>18649693
How does it require patience? Put the coffee in the fridge/on the counter 8 hours before you sleep on the weekend. Go to bed, wake up 10 hours later, take your cold brew out of the fridge. Remove the filter, maybe pour a bit into a cup and have some to wake up. Go about whatever process you want to do (i.e. run it through paper filters if you feel the need to cold filter it further.)
Pour it into bottles and store them in the fridge, drinking as desired.

>>18649704
or i would make a black books cafe and just be a massive drunk cunt to everyone, but make the best coffee so even though everyone hates me they have to come.

We know bud. Unplug that keyboard and just tap tap tap away while talking to yourself. Unless that makes too much noise and overstimulates you. Then just sit quietly and imagine a pleasant life I guess.

dont worry champ i have gateron box browns
no loud keyboards in my house.

>>18649835
tasted better though
the little guy didn't do too bad. exceeded my nonexistent expectations at minimum

>>18649843
LOL. Some of the worst tactiles you can get. Fitting.

i like how they feel and sound.

why

just tried instant coffee for the first time in my life because why not

actually revolting
people actually drink this shit?
i have lost even more respect for normies.
even with sugar and milk
blech.

>>18650222
lots of people just don't know any better or don't want to think about it. ignorance is bliss, and cheap

>>18650220
i have never used cherry or reds or any of that.
first mechanical i bought had kailh brown and this one has gateron brown and i like both.
i think these are better tho.
im using the IQUNIX L80 rn. and it seems its just brown not box brown. idk im not really a keyboard guy.
but i like em so i dont really care beyond that.

>>18650226
it didnt have any instructions on it so maybe i put too much in the cup?
it said "can make 150 cups" and i thought there is no way unless you just take a pinch or something.

>>18650233
Par for the rokgrinder course.

>>18647908
Yes but I also hate working with clients.
Last year I saw this place where there used to be an ATM and I thought that it'll be really cool to have an espresso machine that fit on the ATM hole and say that the place is the world's smallest cafe.
Having a cafe is about business and not about coffee but still the ambience is worth paying for.

>>18650222
Some of it is good, but very expensive. As far as grocery store instant goes, you can get some that is better than anything you can make with the ground coffee you'd buy at the store. It's about picking the right instant - lighter roasts and light colored crystals will work best. The super dark stuff that looks kind of like coarse ground coffee is made by a different method, and tastes really bad. Then you need to use water that isn't above about 65c when you prepare it.

>>18650268
iqunix fucking sucks tho
held my order for ransom
i paid for it
i paid for express shipping
they then held it at a depo saying i need to pay $60 for them to deliver it

i did it because it had already taken 3 months to come from singapore or whatever.
fuck em, blacklisted forever.

>>18650328
Stop getting attached to bottom of the barrel tier products.

>>18650315
i only shop at aldi so they have all weird knock off brands.

i lied when i said i have never had instant but the instant was so expensive i didnt feel like it was even in the same category of 99.9% of instant coffee( it was $3000 for 1kg, it was great but i would never buy it for normal consumption. also i didnt spend 3k but it costs $1 per gram and 1kg is an understandable weight amount)

>>18650334
>bottom of the barrel tier products.
is iqunix bottom of the barrel?

>>18650350
I used to post on geekhack and have lubed more switches than you've typed on. Never fucking heard of them, not on deskthority wiki either. Sounds like an aliexpress special. Probably why you had to wait months and only offer switches no one wants.

>>18650365
I guess cases and plates would be more likely to come from taobao. Whatever.

>>18650365
well all my friends are from singapore and they were all hyped out of their mind about new iqunix stuff and i was looking for a new keyboard so i bought it
im happy with it at the end of the day.
i had 2 ducky one 2 with kailh brown, but they both broke in the same way and it was annoying me.
also ducky's build quality is kinda shit. the rubber feet rub off within a couple months, the led backlights fail, the keys are not balanced
even after learning even a tiny amount about mechanical keyboards it feels like anything under $200 is trash.
im not interested in anything with a numpad. which kinda corners me.
i feel like wanting browns + 65% + no backlight + no wireless + good build quality + a specific color scheme for the case and keys for under $250 is borderline impossible.

does anyone drink dog owner

>>18650437
no i drink dog water.

>>18650421
>anything under $200 is trash
Basically. Ive had a few duckys over the years. Old fat bezel mini, shine 4 and 5, and the disco they made for mk.com. Bought a $200 input club k-type because I wanted a white hotswap 10keyless. After about $100 of mods later and its pretty decent to type on. I'd still call this entry level as well. Vortex pbt+pom caps, Holy sky switches(Halo true stems, hand drilled outemu sky PA6/6 Nylon bottoms, polycarb tops, gpl 104), sprit 125g progressive springs and stab wires, cherry stabs, bandaids etc etc. Great board, but massdrop fucked over the designer so they abandoned firmware development. They still sell the board with a different pcb and firmware as the Drop Ctrl.

>>18650443

>>18650474
No but I drink the Korean coffee Moodtrap.

got a warning for a troll post outside of /b/ even tho it wasnt a troll post or even offensive at all.
fucking cringe.
just said creamer sucks.
is that a bannable offence?

I got a 24hr for rolling to decide what I'd drink that morning.

stop playing coy
if you can't do the time don't do the crime, faggot

>>18651136
what did i even say thats bannable?
how is that a troll post?
why would that only be able to be said on /b/ or /pol/?
>what is wrong with americans
how is this bad? 99% of the time someone uses creamer its an american
and yeh its true i think you are subhuman for using creamer. how is this bannable or troll?

im not baiting or trolling with this post either i literally dont understand how what i said was wrong or troll or off topic or any of that.
was it the caps? i dont understand.

>>18651148
trolling means riling people up over nothing
you're doing that by calling them mutts and "people" for no reason
if you don't like creamer you could just have said so
but no, you wanted to start yet another petty "usa vs. the world" shitfest
again, stop acting coy, we all see through you.

>>18651152
>stop acting coy
not acting coy
im rok grinder anon, i am literally autistic. i genuinely have no idea how saying "people" or mutts is riling people up?
what even is getting annoyed at nothing? it can't be nothing otherwise you wouldn't be annoyed right?
guy said they use creamer
i essentially said i dont think you are human because i hate creamer.
thats not nothing.
again not acting or being coy or any of that,
again actually am autistic and i am not american or eu or whatever.

so are the rules that i can't say " "people" " or "mutts" or make fun of people for using creamer?

>>18651148
>what did i even say thats bannable?
>Mutts.
>"People".
You're being pretty derogatory and inflammatory. Labeling entire groups of people as subhuman is behavior inappropriate on a cooking forum.

>>18651181
ok so no swearing?
no insults?
no memes?
no banter?
no shitposting?
no inflammatory comments?
no derogatory comments?
been here over a year never had any problems at all doing all of the above.
is there some newfrog here with paper skin reporting comments?
not trolling or whatever with this comment either im just asking.
also i know is probably not going to happen but any jannies that can answer instead of some anon?

>coffee and cookies
Mmm

>>18651206
those look like eggs

>>18651218
She's gonna eat ALL the eggs

Thank you anon who shilled s&w roasting. Really liking these compared to the last time I got single origins. The coffee honey was also very tasty. If only they did 5lb with free shipping like my local does tho

>>18651224
i was going to make that comment :)

Went to an ethiopian coffee place and had coffee with coconut cake.

>>18651308
how was it

>>18651308
Sounds like a fake Ethiopian coffee place. Real Ethiopians have it with popcorn

>>18651326
The coffee was nice. Didn't even need cream. Just one packet of splenda and it tasted great. It was sweet and a bit fruity for coffee. Not bitter at all. The coconut cake was delicious.

Also, the lady at the counter was very friendly. I'm a shut-in with only surface-level social skills so it was uncomfortable for me but I managed to converse decently. Last time I tried their espresso latte. I think I might go one more time and try one of their specialty coffees, like the ginger coffee. Maybe a chai tea instead. Idk.

>>18651331
In fairness, they're technically Eritrean, but it's basically the same thing. She even said as much.

>>18651346
>It was sweet and a bit fruity for coffee
this is the common theme for ethiopian coffee

>>18650222
You have to think of it not as coffee, but a coffee-adjacent beverage for disaster survival scenarios.

>>18651386
i just wanted something to make when i wake up after my roommate goes to sleep, so just the sound of the kettle is about as loud as i would like to be, but idk if its worth it, i cant imagine the caffeine content is that high either.

>>18651249
Any time bud. You got two guats right? If you buy some of their preground cold brew they ship for free. That guy was going to give me 10lbs of seasoning beans for the wug but I decided it would be too much of a pain in the ass.

>>18651574
>two guats
Yeah. Working on that nutty one right now. I don't do cold brew but maybe the math works out even if I don't use it. Probably willl do my next order in feb so I'll ask for suggestions round then

>>18651589
Might be worth buying some to gift away for xmas. Subsidise your shipping and get cheap gifting beenz.

I'm the only person in my household who really drinks coffee. Am I just best off buying an aeropress for myself rather than a cafetiere?

I took the light roast kenya pill and can't go back. Now what coffeebros?

How come whenever I watch a James video, it's always
>expensive grinder makes clearly better coffee
>cheap grinder coffee is clearly worse, disgusting even
like I find it hard to believe it's that black and white, or that a small difference in particle size distrubution makes such a dramatic difference in taste

>>18652545
from what i understand the zp6 burr is similar to the timemore c2 burr and therefore its just as good as the zp6.

case closed

>>18653521
It really is that big of a deal but you can have acceptable coffee as cheap as a Q2 Hept or a Kingrinder K6 (on sale) honestly. You will get better coffee from more expensive grinders but once you go past a Q2/K6 it's diminishing returns. Like the difference between some shitty $30 no-name grinder and a $99 grinder is night and day, but the difference between a $99 and a $200 grinder is not nearly as large.

>>18653521
i think alot of coffee stuff can be thought of like audiophile stuff.
from $10-$50 is a big bump for headphones and that trend will roughly continue up to $1k.
and then you need to upgrade other shit.
like amp/dac + file type and quality of the mastering.

>>18653557
Are you retarded? The zp6 burr is a tweaked version of the etzinger design baratza uses for the sette 270, but with a bigger outfall on the ring burr.

>>18653710
almost identical. thanks for confirming.

>>18653718
Look at him cope.

>>18653557
Burrs are half the picture at absolute most. Alignment is even more important.

What the actual fuck. Is it really the coffee doing this or just coincidence? Or is this batch of coffee just had and I should throw it out?

It was really bad bros. I normally weigh 63kg but when I weighed myself today I was 55.7kg and 56.x kg after I ate. I only do bodyweight/calethenics too so I feel like I lost whatever small gains I got

Surely my scales are just fucked right? You can't possibly drop that much in weight in just 1.5 weeks of gastro/shitting water?

>>18654488
i once lost 5kg after a shit once.
i tore my asshole in half and sent me to the hospital but...
also i lost 10kg by not eating for 2 weeks.
how to lose 15kg in 2 weeks, just destroy yourself its that easy.

also 63kg? how tall are you.
if its under 6'4 dont even bother replying.

>>18654503
Lol 5'5 bro

>>18654346
Nothing wrong with that m8, Tea's a good beverage too.

anyone who actually cares about the drug and its effects just take the pills

>>18655292
I don't know much about em. If you're a student who's gonna cram all night or a sleep deprived wagie who has to drive 40 minutes in traffic, would a caffeine pill help with alertness and wakefulness for those?

Not him, but yes. But it comes at a price.

>>18655324
>But it comes at a price
Yeah... I'd assume it makes your heart explode faster
I'm also curious about reading how Taurine energy drinks compare to caffeine, but I don't know if I'll find adequate studies

>>18655328
dont take if high blood pressure.
also because its just a pill you can take WAY more than recommended very easily.
also coffee is usually something you can sip over the course of idk 30 to 40 min? but you can take like 5 coffees worth of caffeine in 5 seconds.
which you should never ever do.

Went to the ethiopian coffee place again and had ginger coffee with coffee cake. Was great. The owner, abdul, even gave me a free sample of lemon loaf. He's a great guy.

i'm trying to find a coffee that's smooth and has some subtle notes to it but every time i drink at a coffee shop or buy a specialty, it always tastes super fruity and overpowering. i grew up drinking pic related and i'm kind of tempted to go back to it just because the taste is so much more simplistic and palatable. anyone know of anything else i can try before i just give up completely?
