I admire the commitment but y’all are nuts with those rigs

 

[casa_mugrienta]

beside the wakefulness, there are other health benefits from drinking coffee

Why are you having trouble being awake?

I did go a little crazy for a bit but ended up selling this. The machines are too stressful for me. Too many moving parts.

My Mom goes with the k cups. Not a fan myself.

Real grinds ftw and a one button drip maker is all that is needed. Prove me wrong fakas!

Keurig is like $30 per lb for shitty coffee. With a little extra plastic for the landfill.

I also prefer pre-rolls

Still have my old, simple, Krups expresso/milk steamer rig. But haven't really used it in many years. Got it back when Starbucks was just getting out of Seattle, and wife wanted lattes. I used it for straight shots to make red-eyes, hammerheads whatever you call them.

Now it's back to Mr Coffee type makers and decent beans. I try all sorts of medium to dark blends. But keep coming back to Sumatran. Strong, but not a hint of bitterness. Overall good fairly strong bean. A good all day coffee, which is what I usually do, black much more often than not.

Now the real question is paper filters or gold screen filters?

I used to like the gold screens, but they left that fine sludge at the bottom of the pot, and the devil lives in there. I got weird headaches if I missed a day.

Back to paper, non-bleached if available and can miss a day and nothing.

Don't knock it until you try it. Beats the hell out of Starbucks.

Starbucks is crap. At least if you shop supermarkets Peets is about as low as one can reasonably go.

I can get busy with Starbucks veranda blend from the grocery store or off the shelf in one of their stores. Most of the rest of Starbucks beans are over roasted burnt toast crap

 

[grapedrink]

Anyone else notice how a lot of dark roasts nowadays look like medium roasts, and mediums look like light roasts? What's with the whole hipster under roasted coffee trend?

Im gonna give you that if that one. The light roast is tolerable but rarely served at Starbux

Why are you having trouble being awake?

Who said they had trouble being awake? Not me Coffee has some positive health benefits is all that was said

Grind beans, spoonful of grounds onto the AeroPress tube, hot h20, stir contents in tube, insert plunger, push and coffee comes out through the wire screen into my selected cup. 1/2 & 1/2 + honey.

Repeat, 2 maybe 3 times

 

[CutnSnip]

Why bother?
Just get enough sleep.

believe it or not some people like taste of coffee myself included.

you would love this bitter boy.

I start the water first, cuz I need that fucking cup asap. Then I get new filter, then grind (Capresso burr grinder), then wait impatiently for water to boil and coffee to drip (Chemex).

25 years of this for me. I am seriously disturbed by any deviation.
