Coffee

I am actually living on a bridge, we are vaping, using single-cup coffeemakers, and there's a talking dolphin

that sounds not that awful

wait until you find out my new coffee is archer farms brand

idg drinking coffee anything but hot

a nice xl ice coffee on a hot summer afternoon, maaaan

tbrr I got a little worried by that article about the dude who blew up his kidneys by drinking a gallon of iced tea per day. saw a little bit of myself between the lines.

usually sometime in the afternoon i just scramble up what's left of my morning cold brew, dunk in a couple small tea light candles designed to float in a bathtub, & hang on for a few minutes til it's tepid, add a dash of milk, and it's great, too.

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 read that, too, which prompted me to ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and buy some Lipton cold brew iced tea bags and chuck them in a pitcher of cool tap water per instructions and you know what it's really good.

uh isnt cold brew tea just instant tea???

idg what is diff between "cold brew" branded tea bags and normal tea bags

prob about $1.50

btw I recommend luzianne tea for iced tea it is good

guy who cant taste the difference between cold brew and regular coffee poured over ice shares magical pour coffee over ice recipe no one has ever heard of

Uh, that's the whole point. Good on you all if you can tell the difference. My lack of sophistication will save me so much time and money.

joooosh

I do like how the lil' bottles are packaged and marketed, though. No joke, they've done a great job. And I did have a great cold coffee on tap at Dark Matter the other week, so maybe there's hope!

uh isnt cold brew tea just instant tea???

No! Instant iced tea is powdered and horrible. Here - http://drinks.seriouseats.com/2012/07/the-food-lab-the-truth-about-sun-tea-forget-the-sun-cold-brew-tea-is-better.html

idg what is diff between "cold brew" branded tea bags and normal tea bags

Cold brew bags have dustier, crappier tea leaves in them. On purpose because I guess that works better.

hmm I have skepticism

kinda prefer an iced americano too 'cold brew' #savage

The cold brew bags are as opposed to making tea with boiling water, which is what I normally did. Cold brew is a lot less bitter and it doesn't get all cloudy.

I never went in for sun tea. Seemed gimmicky plus I remember Lipton marketing special bags for sun tea in the 80s. If boiling water was good enough for my grandma dammit it was good enough for me.

Anyway back on topic I got some of that Trader Joe's iced coffee concentrate and it fucks up my guts something fierce.

that starbucks via stuff is made for people who are constipated iirc

We take the TJ's coffee concentrate on camping trips. I'm not sure it's defined as iced coffee though, is it? We've always heated it up on the stove and diluted (per instructions) with water.

has anyone had this, looks super-concentrated but reminds me of lol ilx

I wonder if they just take some cafe du monde knockoff coffee and cold brew it really strong and bottle it for suckers

well if they do the they've suckered me because I fucking love grady's

stumptown is good too but imo grady's is better

it's really $$ so I don't get it often but it's delicious

xpost Sounds more like a knockoff of a chicory cold coffee Blue Bottle sells.

My dad used to drink chicory coffee. Was never really my thing.

maybe blue bottle ripped gradys off... as far as the idea of putting the ancient recipe of hickory coffee into a bottle lol

lol like blue bottle is inventing anything

Yeah who knows. Point being, lots of people seem to be doing cold chicory coffee and bottles.

asian groceries usually have cafe du monde because it's very popular for vietnamese iced coffee iirc

We discovered a roaster in our neighborhood selling awesome dark roast for like $9 a pound wholesale

It aint costco cheap but awesome smooth fresh roast at that price holllllla livin in coffee heaven fyi

omg dark roast is so out of style mortified 4 u

we have a couple 90s-style coffee shops around, very much the vibe of coffee shops of that era as far as setup and art on the walls and occasional lesbian folk singers playing. I should buy beans from the one that roasts beans.

dark roast always bad buy medium roast or just chew on green coffee beans

just grow a coffee tree inside yr blood imo

my impt coffee opinions

-- best way to make iced coffee is to use an Aeropress over a glass w/ ice in it. Add milk or water as desired.

-- best coffee rn is Ethiopian bcz it is complex and fruity and tastes like blueberries!!! How fun is that? I bet it wd be SO good cold brewed

-- cold brew takes so much coffee-to-water and is kinda expensif to make :-/
