How do you drink your coffee?

For me it's straight black

>> No.3974177

If it's a light roast I'll drink it straight almost always. Darker roasts I'll drink black or with a little cream and only enough sugar to taste.

>> No.3974179

My favorite coffee is the turkish coffee.

>> No.3974186

Black mostly, occasionally cream, never sugar.

the taste of coffee and the taste of sugar are like antithetical in my mind, is this something i need to try?

Same here. When I was working for one of America's richest families, our outpost was stocked with nasty assed 8 o'clock coffee. The only way I could drink that garbage was by cutting it with 50% water. It would tear up my stomach otherwise.

One of my co-workers was married to a Colombian. They flew to Colombia once a year. He always brought back the best coffee I'd ever tasted. And it was filled with a hyper level of caffeine. I drank a cup of that (black, of course) and was jolted for the entire night.

Lots of cream, lots of sugar.

>> No.3974212

Coffee black with sugar tastes somewhat strange to me. I mean with just sugar, no cream. I can see why people don't often like it that way. I taste it like that before putting cream in. I'm not sure what it is...

>> No.3974214

if it's good quality, black.

if it's not, a little cream or milk.

Black in the morning.

Creams and sugar any time after 7PM.

I buy san francisco bay french roast in 3lb bags. When I open that shit, I vacuum seal a canister and the rest in a rival bag. After every use, I re vacuum seal the canister. This ensures my coffee will never get oxidized and taste like shit.

I'm a supertaster, all you plebs would never understand.

nature makes things bitter so you don't eat them
normal humans don't like bitter tastes
weirdos enjoy them and slowly kill themselves - you know every mg of caffeine adds 2 beats per minute to your heart which equals about 600 beats per cup of coffee.
your heart can only beat so many times so you're taking off about 5 minutes of your life with each cup of coffee you drink

You can only breathe so many times so every time you breathe you are taking time off of your life. If you breathe half as much you can live twice as long.

that's actually true too as long as you're able to get the oxygen another way, scientists found some chromosomes in DNA that prove a heart can only beat X amount of times until it just stops, same goes with lungs but that depends on each individuals' lung elasticity and density of blood vessels inside the tissue that makes up the lungs and is much harder to determine than a heart's cut off point.

Black tastes disgusting unless it's strong, and has a little froth on it

If it's weak I'll drink it with some half-half, and if it's super cheap I'll get vanilla/hazelnut mixed with 1/2 - 1/2

See I'm the opposite. But then again, I've bought some light roast recently that's surprisingly complex, so I feel kind of stupid putting cream and sugar in it. I feel like a bold black coffee is a better mix with cream and sugar. But I only do this if I know the coffee is terrible.

Coffee tastes fucking gross. It smells amazing but i'll never understand how anyone manages to put that putrid toilet water into their mouth.

I have too much respect for coffee culture to just load it with cream and sugar and chocolate and frosting though. I just don't drink it.

Normally black but when I'm at home I've been getting into these Thai powdered coffee shit with sugar and cream in them

Looks alchemical, or something

>> No.3975075

What you do is, you start off with black. You take your time smelling the aroma and sipping it until it cools off enough to drink.

Then, after you've downed about a quarter of it, you fill it up to the brim again by adding cream, then down the entire cup like that.

And that's how it's done.

>> No.3975089

things like cream and sugar are to make up for lack luster coffee and or brewing techniques

it's the same with tea--if you add that shit to high quality coffee or tea, which was brewed properly, you're ruining what people pay a premium for, just because you are doing automaton shit.

Espresso can do no wrong in my book.
Usually add honey, cardamom, and cinnamon to my morning brew. Only add cream if it's bad coffee.

Yeah, I've heard that. I'm using a dark roast, and it tastes amazing with just that little splash of h&h, but I should really try a light sometime.
