@elftummy @TorbasaTuba @Beefki @Evil_Bender @Shadowbroker2135 @Vashna @Will2Power I used to always do it this way, it made very strong coffee, but always too much and I get too paranoid about accidentally leaving the burner on -

Oh, I had one of those. Kept it on hand for when my idiot brother visited. I wonder what happened to it. The coffee maker, not my idiot brother. -

@TorbasaTuba @Shadowbroker2135 @Beefki @Evil_Bender @Vashna @Will2Power @Wormwood Have you tried a moka pot? With espresso grounds you can get basically the same flavor -

That is an appropriate response, I just never acquired a taste for it. Sure there were a couple of cups of espresso in Rome, but somehow I could never match that here in the states. -

If I drank coffee I would move to Kona and grow my own. I have found it cheaper to just stay home and not drink coffee. That was a close thing. -

im planning an Amazon 8x12 between now and next April. I need more control over water and sunlight. Plus they spike the Co2 nicely which really helps. -

@Will2Power @Evil_Bender @Shadowbroker2135 @Beefki @Vashna @Wormwood McDonald's coffee is sourced mainly from Brazillian Arabica
It's not designed to taste "good"; it's designed to taste "good enough" for the most people possible.
In brazil they use tons of pesticides on the coffee
Then they ship it to california to be ultra processed
Then it goes to a distributor and sits in a warehouse for a while
Then it goes to a local supplier and sits in a warehouse for a while
(by this time, the coffee is already stale by the way)
Then it goes to the store & sits on a shelf for a while
Then they make it in machines they never clean
Then a brownoid serves it to you -

@Beefki @Wormwood @Vashna coffee has always been intertwined with desserts because for ages coffee was seen as an indulgence - a special treat from the new world.
It was not until very recently (the last 100 years or so) that coffee transformed into a thing that people use for energy or waking-up in the morning
Also tiramisu is an italian dessert which uses coffee as an ingredient. -

I don't understand people who get a dessert that's got a squirt of coffee in it. Did you want coffee or just an excuse to have a milkshake for breakfast?

@Beefki @Vashna @Wormwood Oh I see what you're saying; I thought you meant actual desserts - because most cafes I've been to in America serve mostly pastries & desserts as food whereas when I was in Europe it was mainly more savory options.
Women like sweet things. Coffee is just a gimmick for the market to extract money from their wallets to deliver the sweet things into their mouthsChinese man ? #nobot repeated this. -

@elftummy @Beefki @Vashna @Wormwood I used to drink Cafe Bustello about 5 years ago because it somehow had a rep as the huwhite coffee that was good and not price inflated by a brand name. Sorry to hear it is jewed. Peets is decent and served in workplaces here. And they are not insufferable like Starbucks, though I'm sure they are also libs. AboveTime was in Indiana and now in PA I think, I did not know about the Antellope Hill connection.
I have a standard auto drip for making my morning 16 oz tumbler full, and a Bialetti 4 cup moka when I want espresso in the late afternoon or evening. Works great.

....fantastic however that doesn't really relate to my statement. Bitter is absolutely part of a flavor profile that can be used in desserts, however that's got very little to do with these hoes and how much they "love coffee".
Bitches don't "love coffee". They love a syrup smoothie that hid the coffee under 20 different sugars.
I suppose my original phrasing could have been better, but it was in the context of the post about getting an XL "coffee" filled with trash and a small salad.
