in my vision of the future im wearing a 2.5K suit standing outside a hip bistro with a babe in each arm and a hologram of a skateboard at my feet

...everything ...is a hologram ...u r back at the shantytown

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 :-/

where i take off my virtual reality ray-bans to reveal... a beach in the south of france. a babe hands me a cold iced coffee as i take in the panaromic view of the water glad to have played Urban Squalor VI: City of Angels but happy to relax now with my friends and listen to music coming out of our combination cd/tape deck boombox

fuuuuc

There's an Ethiopian bean at my local roaster that tastes like peaches and is delicious/weird. But sadly ime Ethiopian coffee does not make a good cold brew.
also, I have often purchased Stumptown cold brew in a bottle from gas stations in Oregon and it's not bad but definitely doesn't transcend the category of cold brew in a bottle available at the gas station

I made Japanese iced coffee for the first time w/ a borrowed Chemex and holy shit it was delicious. Immediately ordered one of the glass-handled Chemexes from Amazon because the wooden collar is kind of a PITA.

My espresso experiment has kind of stalled, I seemed to be absolutely hopeless at getting a decent pour so I guess I'm shitty at tamping. Will revisit when it's not 100F every day.

But sadly ime Ethiopian coffee does not make a good cold brew.

ya all those subtle aromatic elements r gonna be killed by the cold

is a Chemex not just a v nicely sculpted all-in-1 pourover?

just try telling that to the chemex faithful

no i mean they are wonderful and handy but idk how it could possibly be different than a pourover

I recently asked the same thing.

it is a fancy pourover carafe

i shun chemex bcz of those ugly 70s-home-crafts wooden collars

i had coffee from dunkin donuts this morning

my thoughts are with you and your family

is a Chemex not just a v nicely sculpted all-in-1 pourover?

official chemex filters are thicker is my understanding letting fewer oils pass through making a cleaner bup which some ppl like, also theyre glass instead of plastic, tho u can get ceramic pour over cones (i have that), also u cn get a big chemex and use it as a carafe for multiple cups

i shun chemex bcz of those ugly 70s-home-crafts wooden collars

things that make u go lol

I think they added the Y to Irgachefe to make it sound more like yerba matte

is yirgacheffe trendier than poopy bean coffee or peaberry coffee?

feel like its more a cult classic than trendy

is it like the forbidden zone of coffee

its the man who fell to earth of coffee

hey fun coffee frans if i like fruity peachy fun zippy coffee what do I seek out besides Ethiopian? I wonder if I can buy coffee like this at Trader Joe's...

i hear their Ethiopian is not v great

yirgacheffe

okay that's already Ethiopian coffee

might try this TJ's kenya

yirgacheffe;

stebie you should probably try yirfachgeffe

hmm i wish someone cd come to some sort of consensus abt what type of coffee i should prob try

YR GA CHEF

yr ga chef now dog

maybe thinking i shd just not buy coffee @ TJ's at all and go to like La Colombe or somfin' fancy

the co-op sells it in bulk, tho, that's p dope, i can just buy like half a pound of coffee and grind it and it stays not too unfresh

i ran out of coffee the other day and my local grocery store doesn't sell much whole bean coffee and i really needed some beans so i went to starbucks and bought some guatemalan beans and....... they weren't bad?
