Also I've never endorsed drip coffee ever before but after growing disillusioned with flavorless cold brew I started doing iced coffee with one of those single cup drip coffee things, brewed directly into ice, and it's the best tasting iced coffee I've ever had

i never liked coffe here in nc but in sai gon it was so yum :shrug:

This entirely depends on your dependency on coffee, but a blender can be used in place of your press. Load the water, sugar and beans in, give it a good blast. Make sure to add milk after. One can create an iced coffee by replacing the water with ice and applying whipped cream after.

POOL IS CLOSED: I'm just exploding with mackerel. This is the aji wo kutta of my discontent.

some medical fellows from Saudi Arabia shared a good one with me a couple years ago. brew the coffee with a little cardamom, clove, and ginger, then serve with milk. a little ceylon cinnamon or fresh nutmeg doesn't go amiss either. (cassia cinnamon kinda makes it taste way too christmassy.) i usually do this with less expensive beans. as for the ginger, use fresh, frozen, or freeze-dried, but not ground. i suppose candied ginger would be interesting if you take your coffee sweet.

This sounds good. I grind mine with star anise and vanilla bean powder.

hey here's a question for some of the coffee nerds that google hasn't been able to give me a straight answer for- a friend gave me a variety of odd teas- Russian caravan, fennel, some others, but also some chicory as well. what would be the best way to go about incorporating the chicory into my coffee?

Sometimes I throw in a green cardamom pod per scoop or two of beans in the grinder and then give it a dash of cinnamon after brewin :yum:

Still using a French press? I think the cognoscenti all recognize that an Ethiopian press is the real deal.

I use an atlantean press, it's pretty popular in the hollow earth where pressures allow them to make really dank brews

- buy it flowers
- thoughtful and flattering but very mildly suggestive compliments
- be rich, attractive, tall, successful, confident, or fake it till you make it

do not neg the coffee, you'll just make it bitter

oh another good way to make coffe is to mix instant coffe into a cup of coffe, that way it works twice as hard to wake you up

I thank each bean for being here and whisper them words of encouragement while I put them in a cup with hot water

I let the coffee beans democratically decide how they brew themselves

1. Drink a hot cup of coffee
2. Wait about 15 minutes or so
3. Go to the bathroom

I keep my beans off balance and under high pressure in a stressful work environment. Everything about their work stations is Taylorized so that they always know they're being watched. they know who owns them. Under these conditions, the beans practically roast and brew themselves.

I first start off with a list of things that I have disliked about my coffee in the past, going into very fine detail the exact specific things that I thought were not up to par. I don't refer to any of the coffees by name, but I give enough detail that anyone would easily know which coffee I'm referring to, but vague enough that I could plausibly deny it to HR if it ever came to that.

I then present a PowerPoint of a multi step action plan, itemized according to the preceding "areas of improvement", and trust that I have sufficiently terrorised the coffee enough to meet my expectations.

I will have to try adding a pinch of lovecraftian horror to my next brew, perhaps it will emphasize the earthiness
