Order of Operations. Morning Coffee

I'm REALLY lactose intolerant so it made creamer a bit of a no go for me and I don't care for sweetened coffee. Also my dad convinced me real men drink black coffee when I was an impressionable young fella.

I can't believe all you light roast haters. I like good dark roast but most of it is garbage. I prefer light roast. San Diego has a great coffee scene whichever way you lean though.

used to be all about cream and sugar. Went black when I went on my diet and I just roll with it that way now.

Like they say, you taste the coffee that way.

So, for you it’s true, huh?

 

[MathDebater]

It's a fact. Can't fight nature, man.

I Ike coffee black too sometimes, but a little dollop of heavy cream, well shaken before pouring in the mug so it acts like the head of a beer for that first sip, that’s just manna

 

[Subway]

why two?
I can't believe we have another coffee making thread. Last one went on for 2 years

To be fair, that 2 years of Covid was like a giant rupture in the space time continuum. A WHOLE LOT of things went on for 2 years (and counting) that really should have only lasted 15 minutes or so

Throw some whipped cream on top of a triple espresso . . . You're welcome

You know what (apparently) screwed up my cholesterol/ LDL count? Too much coconut from daily Laird Superspooge coffee creamer! LOL
Had to which to the Oat Mac version.

I think a lot of someone’s propensity for high cholesterol is genetic too.

Genetics, sure. My wife brought that Laird shite home once. Terrible stuff.

Our ceramic drippers are made from Arita-yaki, a traditional style of Japanese ceramics with a 400 year history. Each dripper is handmade by a local craftsperson and, coupled with its functional beauty, create a stunning contrast between the traditional and the modern. The V60's conical shape allows for deeper layering of coffee grounds, and its spiral ridges and lack of flow restriction allow the user to pour the water quickly for a delicate body or slowly for a heavier flavor.

Same here and I eat a lot of butter, cheese, meats. Most people throw off what they don't need. Eating too much sugar is worse than using a tbsp of cream in coffee.

Have you read the great cholesterol myth?

Have you read the great cholesterol myth?

No, but I learned it when my son was diagnosed with Crohn's and we changed our diet to only meat and vegetable only for a while. I had bloodwork done and my dr. thought I was anemic. My LDL was super low.

At the university coffee shop I worked at (The Beanery, uptown location), single espresso with whip cream was the Monday Special and had its own name: Little Caesar.

Would occasionally make it a double for free for friends.

I honestly don't understand why pour over coffee making is not more popular. It's quick, easy and it works great.

And since we're talking routine:
get up, flick on the electric kettle (filled the night before), drop a deuce.
grind the beans, drop a filter in the cone (sadly, while I have a ceramic dripper I am not well educated as to it's origins, or the specific ceramic type, or to its history), set it on mug, pour water over coffee, and then - and I hesitate to type this out here on this public forum - add vanilla soy milk and enjoy. Oh yeah and drop the filter + grounds in the compost.

dunno if any of you have asked for soy milk in a cafe lately but man... what a reception. you'll likely get a rundown of all of the non-dairy "milks" you CAN have but you sure can't have soy.

Before the switch to the French press, Sweetie-pie's pour over technique was:

a put sufficient grounds into 2 cup container
b pour enough hot water into said container
c swirl around a bit, wait 2 minutes, swirl more and before swirling motion stops, pour contents into cone filter
d wait till all is done
e add some half-n-half

You do you, homie. I think Oatley full fat is far superior but everyone has different tastes. As long as you aren't drinking pre ground maxwell house like some kind of goddamn psychopath.

I did a campaign in late 2020 with the Oatly marketing folks…Scandinavian, most of them are (company HQ is in Malmo, or at least the marketing teams is) …they really are as quirky and creative as their brand. Like, full on believers and they all seemed so damn happy, even in the New York subway in the middle of a global pandemic. I was impressed

Right on. So, can I get a bro deal hookup??

Probably. I can ask. Do you want to order a case a month or something?

Wake up bleary-eyed and go straight to the shower. Get out and brush teeth. Brew coffee, let it get cold because teeth just brushed. Slam the cold coffee after thirty minutes of reading charts before leaving late for work, pause to take a post shower shlt completing the back-asswards morning. Skip breakfast and drink a rockstar four hours later. Tell yourself you need to do better tomorrow, but you can write today off because you're sad and the two up weeks will be way better, you'll sleep four hours and hike ten miles a day even if you work doubles. Rinse, repeat.
