Anyone ragging on DD Coffee clearly has never been there. It is well known among coffee aficionados that DD has surprisingly good coffee for a chain.

I have personally compared coffee from DD, Mcdonalds, Burgerking, Starbucks and little bodega (all were within a block of each other) side by side with my buddies. We all agreed that DD coffee was the best.

>>4029936
As to not stoop to your level, I will refrain from ad hominem and simply refute your facts. Their beans are actually as good of quality as you get in Starbucks. DD tends to roast their beans far less than other places, so you avoid that bitter burnt taste. It's far fresher than you see at Starbucks and it's actually ground on site, UNLIKE fast food chains. I respectfully submit that you are wrong. I suspect you have never actually had DD coffee.

I am afraid you have your terms switched. Coffee aficionados debate what coffee shops are best. They like to talk about the coffee gadgets and tricks they have learned.

Coffee snobs use blanket terms like "all coffee shop coffee sucks". Coffee snobs will not even bother to sample coffee from, say DD to make an honest comparison. I know a good cup of coffee when I drink it. I think that DD coffee is far better than Starbucks, McD's and most diners I have been to. Seattle's Best makes far better coffee than Starbucks.

What, then, defines quality? If the appeal of the food product is not the defining attribute of quality, what are you left with?

If you reject this aspect of appeal as a measure of quality, you're left with consuming things with no respect or regard for the sensation of taste. It's a masturbatory, self-congratulatory position, where you pat yourself on the back for consuming things that may taste quite vile for the sole reason that it's not popular in the mainstream. You say, "this may taste terrible, but at least I'm not a fucking pleb who eats what they think tastes good."

I'm not sorry that I like to eat things that appeal to my sense of taste, and I will be sorry if I ever become like you, bitterly knee-jerking at anything that even hints of popularity.

What defines quality? What people obsessed with that type of food/that art works on to make better for qualities that product is admired for.

It has nothing to do with not being popular in the mainstream, to be honest. It's a reaction against the race to the bottom that goes on, and a reaction against those that defend the worst quality items. Not everyon, oncluding myself, that buys the cheapest things tries to defend it. Do I purchase organic, free range everything? No, but do I act like it is snobbish to like it, or try to defend things that are good enough?

This attitude of "good enough" is what gets people a lifetime of shit, and a life that isn't the best. Good enough is a race to the bottom, with standards that are always plummeting.

There's nothing wrong with eating what tastes good, but good enough is pleb. Eat what is the best, otherwise, what's the point?

Food is essential to life, therefore, make it good.

>> No.4030143

Again, why do you care about what other people eat? It's their body, not yours. While I don't like the idea of thinking shit-tier food/drink is good enough, it's not really an excuse to bash on what other people eat. They'll learn in their own time, but constantly "hating" on them (for lack of a better term) isn't going to solve anything.

>> No.4030161

Do you see me telling someone they should drink something else, and I find it offensive if they drink it ?

No, you don't.

I'm simply saying DD isn't good. Stop defending it. It's not good, plain and simple. I don't give a fuck if you choose to drink it or not, but stop pretending you are buying it because it's good. You're buying it because it doesn't offend your tastebuds, and it's cheap.

How to know when something is worth defending:

1. Is it made by people who know what they are doing?
2. Would you still drink/eat it if you had unlimited money?


If you answered no to either one of those, then no, it's not worth defending.

>> No.4030162

>>4030141
You still haven't answered the question, however.

>What people obsessed with that type of food/that art works on to make better for qualities that product is admired for.
And yet, while the taste of the beverage is one of those qualities people seek to improve, you have inexplicably set aside that quality from the determination of quality.

I find it contradictory to claim that you're not concerned with what is popular, then dismiss any consideration that takes taste appeal into account.

>> No.4030167

>>4030162
You asked me something that doesn't pertain. I don't care what other people eat/drink, I care what they try to defend.

Taste falls under that thing they try to make better. Not sure why you'd think otherwise.

Duncan doesn't taste good, if you're looking for good coffee. It's burnt, far too bitter, not aromatic, and doesn't have many of the acidic flavors and floral tones properly made coffee has. It literally can't taste good, because it's made from overroasted beans, using a drop coffee maker that under extracts the beans. It's the opposite of good coffee.

>I was implying this was coffee brought home and prepared by the consumer.

It's over roasted, simply put. It comes from low quality beans because Duncan doesn't have the most amazing purchasing power. However, at least they aren't as over-roasted as starbucks.

Protip: If you're going to buy beans in the store, get light roast of brands like this. Then, then at least it won't be over roasted and you'll actually be able to taste the wonderful aromatics of coffee.

>If you love something, whether it be food prepared by a four star restaurant, or dog shit, I'm going to assume you'll buy it if you have unlimited money. Not quite sure what this question helps on your side of the argument

I seriously doubt you'd buy such a shit quality bean, like Duncan, if you had even a couple of thousand in the bank. Sure there are lots of cheap foods that taste good, but would you continue to buy the absolute worst quality of that particular food item? For example, there is no way I'd ever stop eating cornbread. Does that mean I'd ever buy cheap store cornmeal again? Hell no! I'd buy the best quality organic, heirloom fucking shit harvested by naked hippy women.

Honestly that doesn't even compare. That would imply the cornmeal I have now is somehow made flavorless by the grinding and drying process. Perhaps it is, because it's probably GMO and bred for mass production, not taste, but you get my drift.

Nothing wrong with poor people food. but you don't have to do things to it extra ( like over roasting it) to make it even worse, or perhaps terrible.

I have the upper hand because I'm right.

If you want good coffee, preferably you'd find somewhere local that doesn't over roast their beans and sells them fresh. Not everywhere has this. I can't really make a good recommendation other than this, other than to never buy the dark roast from one of the mass market companies. If you can only get Duncan/Starbucks whatever shit, go for usually a grade or two lighter than you'd normally expect to get - for example, Starbucks "French roast" is far darker than a full bodied roast should be. Another thing to keep in mind is to never buy coffee in a container that doesn't let C02 out, because C02 will ruin the flavor of the coffee. Doesn't make it bad, just makes it tasteless.
