No sugar. Just enough cream or milk to make it cool it enough to drink right away

I dislike coffee but sometimes I have to get up early and I am tired. It is not fair to everyone else on the road to drive while tired so I slam some black coffee and sing sea shanties.

You could be a degenerate like my dad and put an ice cube in it.

Also anyone who acts like keurigs are the worst thing ever is just a snob. The only bad part is the environmental stuff from the cups but :shrug: sometimes it's worth it just to have one cup and not use instant or carry one of those aeropress things around.

Switching to aeropress helped me cut down to just 2 mugs each morning. But if I'm on a long drive I still go through buckets of gas station joe.

Leaving the water to sit in the tank makes it lose oxygen and as a result brew janky coffee if you're going to make those kind of sacrifices in the name of convenience just gently caress off to the mcdonalds drive through for some mccafe

Do they sell coffee carafes that pour a steady stream no matter how fast you pour? I have to be careful to not pour too fast or else the stream seems to latch onto the bottom of the carafe and spill.

"Lose oxygen" come on, if you think you can taste a difference in oxygen levels it's purely in your head because you want to justify paying for your ultra rare beans harvested from a sacred volcano that only monks are allowed to harvest and ground with the finest diamond blades or whatever. Also you know you can just empty/refill the tank every day right?

Plus have you ever seen a mcdonalds drivethrough at breakfast times? I could brew like 10 mugs of keurig coffee in the time it would take me to even get to the speaker thing.

Maybe if you only drink one or two cups a day. I've had days where I have to refill the whole thing by the end of the day and that's just when I'm using it - sharing it with family or friends makes it even more likely.

I still say your "oxygen" stuff is snobby bullshit like the people who claim to taste apricot and vanilla notes or whatever in beer. It's coffee, who gives a poo poo. Give me folgers crystals or the most expensive cup of coffee you can buy, I'll enjoy both.

Never said it's as good as non-instant coffee, just that I am still capable of enjoying it, just like I am still capable of enjoying a steel reserve despite almost every other beer tasting better.

Again, it's just coffee. It doesn't always have to be some luxurious experience, sometimes you just don't care. At least even instant coffee is somewhat better than the stuff they serve on airplanes (though I rarely turn that down either).

I tried a pourover method with a Chemex the other day when I got coffee and it was insanely good, not bitter in the least and I was actually able to taste the coffee.

Jokes aside there's something to be said for how you prepare coffee. Drip machines don't even compare.

I don't really drink it for caffeine. I feel very little effect from it anymore and can easily go without it, I just like having it as an excuse to take a bunch of breaks from work and go sit in the coffee lounge. It's just something to do, but also I start to get antsy if I don't have something on hand to drink for extended periods of time whether it's coffee or water or whatever.

I don't understand the demand for convenience with coffee. It's not that hard to make or get a hold of coffee so what does the small difference in time between using a keurig, aeropress or French press even matter? It's whatever taste you can appreciate best

I get my coffee from a man inside a little coffee cart around the corner from where I work. I think he's Vietnamese and he gives me a jumbo size for the cost of a large.

Dunno how he brews his coffee but it's hot and wakes me up what more could you need
