When you're at the diner, do you put the table syrup into your coffee?
this SL-28 from september is so fucking good
I got shadowbanned from my favorite cafe I want to die...
>>21948198So they serve you coffee but no other customers can see you?
>>21948199No, they're serving me out of obligation now. I'm on the silent treatment. No longer the favorite customer. They don't care how I am. No more freebies. Indirectly telling me I'm not welcome anymore.
coffee is technically a tea
>>21948203Would that work here?
>>21948208Like you starting to ignore my posts so I go away?
>>21948204You're technically a human but no one considers you one

>>21947567Buy Costco coffee, they're around half the price of grocery store bags. They stock three tiers, 3lbs bulk value bags, 2lbs general quality, and 2lbs "specialty". Each tier has one Kirkland brand and one or two non Kirkland brands. The only 3lbs bulk bag coffee worth drinking I've found is the Jose Colombian Supremo in the red bags that go for $20-$25/bag. This thing is the poorfag's savior. The most stereotypical coffee to ever coffee. A dictionary definition medium roast Colombian. You can largely ignore the 2lbs general quality bags as they're usually the Kirkland french roast and some national supplier like Starbucks or Pete's. Higher price for beans that aren't any better, and in most cases worse, than the Jose's Colombian. The 2lbs specialty is interesting as the Kirkland single origins like pic related are usually the best coffee they have. But the supply is so low that they maybe get a single pallet a year. So make sure to pick up a bag or two if you come across them. They legitimately creep into the specialty coffee territory. The other bags are some smaller regional or local roasters that can be a hit or miss, anywhere between genuinely good and flavored garbage.
>>21948500wtf are "soft body" notes?
>>21948500>They legitimately creep into the specialty coffee territory.The Ethiopian Jimma tasted like cat piss.
Newest pickup. Any recipes/tips?
>>21948280thankssorry i was alseep.
>>21948082no
>>21948080>Easter Editionlittle early, no?
>>21948551>>21948551>metal on glassdisgustting
>>21948500every time a product specifically calls itself out as being "organic" when it obviously is always makes me suspicious that it isnt.
>>21948551i dont like it.i do like the little cup behind it tho
I guess 1zpresso is only reducing the K-ultra sale price to $220 now.
>>21948580I hate it that my spice grinder costs 1/15th of this firesale.
I need a marble v60
>>21948580how much did you pay anon
>>21948528>They legitimately creep into the specialty coffee territory>The Ethiopian Jimma tasted like cat piss.so they pulled it off then
>>21948580>not getting the zp6 special
I just like using my keurig with a metal reusable cup with grounds from the fridge. Then add organic chocolate milk and enjoy. Is this acceptable in /cig/??? I also smoke cigarettes with it.
>>21948750based until the chocolate milk part
>>21948750>organic chocolate milk
>synthetic chocolate milk
>>21948871>organic chocolate milk from a real brown cow
>>21948566Maybe. Hopefully it makes it. I fucked it and thought we'd get one more before the Christmas one and ended up being wrong so I wanted to err on the side of caution for Easter.
>>21949214fair enough
OK but do I NEED a gooseneck kettle for pourover? Can I just pour out of my normal kettle slowly?
>>21949235NoYes
>>21949235yesno
>>21949235maybemaybe
>>21949235maybecan you repeat the question
>>21949237Thanks.>>21949243Thank you.>>21949245Thanks for the advice.>>21949246Thank you and yes.Do I NEED a gooseneck kettle for pourover? Can I just pour out of my normal kettle slowly?
>>21949257>NEEDfor what?to "make coffee", no.you can piss the boiling water out your ass for all the ground coffee cares, its going to extract in the water and make "coffee" all the samefor GOOD coffee, yes you NEED a goose neckOR you could buy a hario switch or clever dripper and do immersion brew where how the water gets in there doesnt matter at all.
>>21949257You can't do the continuous pour technique without a gooseneck
>>21949235They're very comfy.
>>21949267>>21949275lern2pour skrubs
>>21949331seethe brokie
>>21949338>flexing with a $200 water heaterlol
>>21949347i have no idea what my kettle cost, i dont look at the price tag.
Ali gooseneck is pretty gud. I normally use a thrift shop f press though.
>not having a kettle in your kitchen already>not making it a gooseneck when you know you're interested in making pourover coffee>>21949267nailed it imo. a gooseneck kettle is not even that expensive.
>>21949235>Can I just pour out of my normal kettle slowlyUse a soup spoon to retard the velocity. It'll be fine.
>>21948688I didn't. I just use my $30 Z5 ebay special.
>>21949235Get pic related if you don't want to spend on a more expensive gooseneck. It's $10 and is enough to brew a single cup. The spout profile is surprisingly good. Boil water in the big kettle and pour it into the small gooseneck to get perfect temperature brewing water.
All I need
guys i bought an iced mocha because i saw people i knew in the shop and i wanted to avoid them because i didnt wsnt them to say hi to me but now my tummy hurts from drinking it and i cant enjoy my redbull that i was there for
Newfag here. Can you guys tell me what's the difference between Arabica, Robusta and Liberica beans? Which bean is the best?
>>21949506Might try that, but I don't mind spending a little bit to make things less of a pain for my daily.Your way would mean one less kitchen object cluttering up my cupboards though.>>21949520Thanks for the suggestion. I'm looking at a Mellita very similar to this but that can accommodate two cups. I always make a cup for me and my wife at the same time.>>21949461The point is I do already have a kettle in my kitchen. A kettle I got long before I knew I would interested in pourover. I was wondering if I could use that.>>21949282Nice. Thanks for weighing in.>>21949275Why not? I've been making unbroken pours using my normal kettle so far. I'm more wondering whether the water turbulence versus the less turbulent gooseneck flow is making a difference.
>>21949821It is.
>>21949821Just get a Hoop brewer or Hario Switch and call it a day. Don't waste time on outdated methods and consumerism when those two are the new meta for consistent good coffee. You don't need a gooseneck.
>>21949791>robustaPoor man's arabica>arabicaThe default>libericaNo clue
For me? Coffee Japonica
just bought some wushwush :)
Sometimes, when I make coffees, it has a disgusting taste which I can't exactly describe. Usually it's gone by the next coffee I make, but today I found my entire bag of beans was disgusting. Any research I make on the topic yields unsatisfactory results ("bad water temperature", "bad grinding size", or even "dirty equipment"), any idea what can causes it?
>>21950048rancid coffee oilor coffee mold
>>21949843>Hoop brewerLooks cool. I like the way it works but I would prefer if it weren't made of plastic.I kind of have sunk cost with pourover to the point where I at least want to be able to make a cup of coffee I really like with it before I buy yet another coffee related knick knack, you know? I will consider getting one down the line though.
>>21949821The pour does make a significant difference when doing percolation brews in typical brewers like a v60,wave,etc. Not so much with immersion and atypical ones like the hoop. I have no faith in current year Melitta being able to white label a good long lasting kettle. A quality made in Japan gooseneck like a Takahiro or pic related Kalita is only around $60-$100 and will literally last you the rest of your life. A pittance for the improvement in cup quality and amount of enjoyment you'll get from using it. One of those plus a melodrip and you can really explore how pouring affects cup quality.
>>21950231It's just a stainless steel vessel. Kind of hard to fuck that up unless you're at the lowest of the low tier direct from china restamping and they're lying about the materials. Reviews say it's durable too.I can mostly accept that there is a difference between gooseneck and a regular kettle, but right now I can't accept there is any meaningful difference between 95%+ of goosenecks. It's just getting too into woowoo territory.
>>21950048reckon it's just a shit bag
>>21950048You need old preground beans and it's good to scald and under extract them along with some hard water scale. This is the only way to visit Keurig flavortown.
>>21949991Post it. Should I roast some tomorrow?
>>21950899its not here yetand yes you shouldit looks like B&W have the same beansPaola Trujillo - Wush Wushand im currently drinking this, its pretty good and alot more mild than the notes would suggest.i think ill have a nice, nutty decaf this arvo, oh and some roasted pecans too :)
>>21948203Well maybe you shouldn't have acted like an asshole that one night.
>>21948524When I play jazz flute into your mom's ass
excited to go to sleep so i can make a nice brew tomorrow morning
good ass colombian natural today
>>21950917Oh gross its columbian wush.

Can you lose weight by drinking coffee?
>>21948082>syrupUh yeah, sure.
>>21951315no
Drank the coworker coffee again
Where can I order green unroasted coffee beans? I swear gewgle search keeps on getting worse and worse.
>>21951416sweet marias
>>21950924What did I do that one night?
>>21951566You know.
>>21951663No I don't. Tell me.
>>21948203Try thanking them for what they do. Grease the gear, tip them solid. Then fuck em if your best efforts aren't rewarded. There's a new cafe every other block.
>>21951526Thanks
>>21951330Well if you drink slop like Starbucks
Why am I supposed to hate china?
>>21952032>mochayou dont hate them enough
>>21951683You. Know.
>>21948080>Epstein edition>look again>oh
>>21952111your brain is broken
>>21952111>besta pizza latte artsave it for deserving customers
>>21952119yes, it very much is. Last night it literally broke. I woke up at 3am with mental agony. It was like my minds nervous was disrupted. I wouldn't shut my eyes, otherwise I felt raw mental agony. Turning on all the lights hardly helped. Telling myself in safe hardly helped. I would try closing my eyes and just see computer code and think of an ex gf. I'm not in control of my mind anymore (:
>>21952111>Epstein editionWhy are you wearing that stupid Barista suit?
My Empirical water gets replenished today :)
>>21951850She doesn't accept tips plus she's unfuckable. I'd rather die a virgin.>>21952089I aint do shit.
Is there a suggested super automatic? Wondering it’s worth splurging for a Jura.
>>21952710which onethe De'Longhi Dinamica Plus is probably best bang for your buck tho
>>21952748Unsure, it’s a gift for my wife. Just look for something that can make drip, espresso, flat whites, and lattes.
>>21952750i dont think super automatics can make drip, unless im mistaken.
>>21952784No, it looks like you’re right. The closest they seem to do is Americano.
>>21948082no i put it on my eg and baccy
>>21952038i would buy this stupid thing lmao
Well since we're talking about aliexpress dogshit I've got an ikape tapered getting delivered tomorrow. Should be fun to fuck around with.
>>21953399https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3WlQDsawOM$1600
>>21953749Are you really too fucking stupid to understand why a simple manual machine is cheaper than a much more complex electronic device?
lol
>>21953753Yeah ok I won't bother with any of you people again
>>21953759good luck with your next bump post anon
>>21953759Actual retard.
>>21953419I know how much it cost (on sale rn) worth it just because I geek over tech that uses no electricity
well well well look what finally showed up from china. my titanium v60
>>21953945Grats anon. My Ikape tapered basket just got here. China comes up with the best dumb names.>I Keep A Perfect Espresso
I hate to admit it but the gaylord barista was right about everything. Can't believe I went against him just because he was a zesty cum guzzling faggot.
>>21953993Just don't watch his old videos where he contradicts everything
>>21948080I recently lost access to a breville barista expressPicked up a Bambino as a more cost affordable option, but finding that my espresso is coming out a bit more watery/underextracted than I normally like. I’ve just been using a Krups blade grinder instead of a burr grinder. Do burr grinders make that much of a difference, or can I still hit the fine grind I need with the blade grinder? Any tips for doing so
>>21953966Thanks anon. I like how light weight it is and... uh... it's made of titanium.
The holiday pies (apple) from S&W is so fucking good
>>21953998What videos? This is an irl nigga.
>>21954073Oh.
>>21954092I have no idea who this random is. I'm talking about this one faggot from one of my local cafes.
>>21954097what random? thats just a reaction image
>>21954092Bro definitely knows his shit.
>>21954104No its the barista youtuber the other guy was talking about
