those first few straw-pulls dear lord

put shots in coffee, not in the ilx coffee thread!

There was a request for my mediation. Let's just say I love coffee, and caffeine as well. Dark roast 100% arabica Chemex paper filtered, but otherwise I'm perfectly content with mass market preground coffee.

find it weird that coffee is so healthy

There were two main reason coffee was associated with health harms for much of the 20th century. Coffee drinking was highly correlated with cigarette smoking, and many earlier studies didn't correct for this. And before the 70s (Mr. Coffee: 1972), most coffee was brewed by percolator, French press, or otherwise unfiltered, leaving the cholesterol raising cafestol and kahweol. Paper filters largely remove these diterpenes, but still let through the roasting produced melanoidins that appear to account for most of the non-caffeine benefits.

Its a plant extract with lots of hormetins (mild toxins that induce overall protective effects). Much like broccoli or tea.

I really don't care about (and usually can't detect) "quality" coffee. I just want to stay awake.

Ive never really used coffee that way but I do like the taste and ritual tbh

And I just dig the taste -- the ritual thing I don't really understand.

brb gonna ctrl-f the dawkins threads for 'three word username'

Damn, son, that was the harshest attack yet.

Coffee is only good for making tiramisu.

Shut your mouthy!

I remember a few years back when chess was an exhibition sport at the Olympics - 2000? - and they made a big deal that the players still had to subject themselves to drug testing. Everyone was all lol but articles made a point of explaining just how much of an advantage caffeine conveyed.

I wonder how many chess players historically have been on other stimulants

Maybe the story was that they were testing for caffeine, specifically? Don't remember, was 15 years ago.

lmao stevie

i was raised on instant coffee, i aint mad boo

stevie on scale of 0 to 5, how high were u when this happened

important info imo

tbh a complete 0

Daaaaaamn instant coffee!

only thing i have at home, i do enough cleaning and shit

ie as little as possible

I drink instant coffee! I like it.

Dropped my espresso machine to a claimed 198F and suddenly shit is right in my ballpark taste-wise, I thought 200F was basically the minimum. Oops.

If you like instant coffee + milk, cold brew + hemp milk is the shit.

._.

Hemp milk is the worst thing I have ever put in coffee. Rendered it undrinkable!

it's super gross

For all of my insufferable pedantry, I have been known to enjoy a cold Nescafe frappe and willprobably do it again. Hot instant just makes me sad.
