Coffee

what does it... do???

spiral cuts a boobie

pretty sure it's an IUD

Since no one seems to know... it looks like maybe it's meant to hold a cone coffee filter. Not sure it would work for that purpose though.

Gift idea for the coffee nerd who has everything.

Seems unnecessary since I haven't had any issues with my chemex so far, yet I still kind of want one

talk to your doctor about insertion

ouch

lol

coffee tomorrow morning

Suntanned face and first iced latte of the season.

Everywhere I go, it's like cold pressed coffee this, cold pressed coffee that. On Facebook, in magazines, everywhere. So today when I was at the store buying shrimp I got a bottle of Stumptown cold pressed coffee. I was going to save it for another day, but when I got home the new issue of Imbibe in the mail had this big article on cold pressed coffee, so I took that as a sign and drank my cold pressed coffee. And you know what? Fuck that noise. It tasted like my usual coffee does when I put ice cubes in my carafe leftovers at the end of the day and make it cold. A bottle of that stuff cost me $3.99, a bag of good beans costs me $11. Screw you, cold pressed coffee.

i never had bottled cold brew, but cold brew from cafés that are nerdy about cold brew, & cold brew you make at home just by making cafetiere coffee w/cold water & without plunging it, in the evening before you go to bed, are both real pleasures of life imo, & have a sweeter/softer taste than hot coffee/hot coffee made iced

i love the kinda comic strip vibe of you being unable to take one step outside of yr house without young people & urbanites gratuitously drizzling one another in cold brew though

cold press is so good so dank no acidity easy to make too

cold brew is the sun tea of iced coffee, coffee chains are very excited about it because they can easily package it and not rely on staff/wait time

japanese method (pour over onto ice, use half the water) makes the best iced coffee

japanese method - use $135 kettle

See, I make a pretty simple but really great cup of coffee, Chemex and (right now) Bridgeport beans. My summer routine is usually a couple of cups in the morning, then in the afternoon I fill a glass with the still-warm remnants of the carafe, add some cubes and a dash of milk, and it's great, too. Never have a problem with acidity or whatever issue some say cold brewing circumvents. The Stumptown cold brew I had out of curiosity was really not noticeably different, and for nearly $4 per 12 oz. I was expecting something more ... illuminating. And don't get me started on the cold brews jammed with sugar and cream, because then we're getting into dessert territory.

I am curious about claims that cold brew coffee somehow limits or lowers the caffeine, because that could make it more pleasing past 4pm or so, my usual coffee cut-off. But I don't know how one measures those claims.

gunna get on the ground floor of dry ice brew, you hipsters gonna pay double for that

sun tea is also very good in the same way

yeah i don't know man, they aren't oppositional! you can enjoy the acidity of coffee, & then enjoy cold brew's distinct lack of acidity. coffee is a broad church, coffee entertains your contradictions. i never had the stumptown cold brew & maybe it is the key variable isolating you from the thriving throngs daydreaming of cold brew waterfalls & maybe it isn't, but i feel like you should drink some sanctioned #original cold brew of more classical provenance, or make some yourself sometime, before calling bullshit. you can enjoy your One Weird Trick Brew & also like cold brew. i like a lot of different coffee in my day. maybe two good outside coffees, constant nice home coffee, & uninterrupted bad work coffees.

i always think about lagoon & delicious coffees

lol

i dont love the stumptown cold brew tbh its a lil much as far as bringing out idiosyncratic high notes of whatever weird ass single origin light roast beans their using, good cold brew shd just be straight mellow imo

dont get me wrong i like idiosyncratic weird ass single origin light roast beans just i dont think its the cold brew ideal

i like coldbrew but sometimes it's too sour (which is a different note than too 'bright' or acidic i think)

yah i would think using a blend + darker roast for cold brew would be ideal

exactly

i always think about lagoon & delicious coffees

btw this expression arose because there was this crazy/drug addicted big lady who wld hang out in my corner deli asking ppl to buy her a delicious coffee from the self serve station which i sometimes did but if no one wld shed just steal it and the employees wld throw up there hands like what the hell not again you have to stop doing this, she became known amongst some on our block as delicious coffees

I read a really dream-destroying article on sun tea saying that you can just put the tea in the water and put it in the fridge and it'll taste the same. The sun does nothing. :(

i refuse to believe this corporate funded misinformation campaign

is there any clearer example of classic climate change denialism

how do i make cold brew at home

btw generally i keep things very simple w/ my coffee, moka pot in the morning and that it is pretty much it. i grind my own beans but who here doesnt really

its sometimes called cold press cause and easy way to make it is to prepare a french press w tap water and leave it out at room temperature for like 8-12 hours then plunge it, you cn brew it in any old container then filter it tho like ive made it in a pitcher then poured it through the filter in a drip coffee maker, usually use a lil more grounds than ordinary so its strong and can take the ice

ok cool

a good french press cup is sooooo elusive for me, i have never gotten it right, always tastes too watery even if i use like half a pound of beans

well actually i have never really tried using half a pound of beans so maybe i am still not using enough beans

yeah french press takes so much coffee, its a lifestyle, good too if u have a burr grinder so u can get it universally course / not too much sediment, u might not be brewing it for long enough too give it a good four mins or five if ur crazy, also stir it first

i need to find a new rubber gasket for my moka pot, the rubber is like disintegrating and i often speculate that coffee snobs would come over and say "phluaahahah your coffee tastes like burnt rubber" even though i am still very satisfied with my coffee

bar any coffee snobs from the premisses until u get that worked out
