Coffee

i always put some ice cubes in there if i can. coffee needs to be hot or cold, room temperature doesn't cut it

"forgot"? cof, or don't cof, there is no "forgot"

Cof or can't cof - no one choses to not cof.

room temp cuts it for me. i am a sick cof pervert & kinda like tepid cof sometimes

the flavors get kinda interesting on the low end of hot

no

sry bud

your mom gets kinda interesting on the low end of hot

lower end of hot is good

tepid is bad

tepid dark roast is vile

i will usually finish my cup but really first 20-30 minutes is best

I bet I didn't need to slam down that large cold brew in just 20 minutes

I can easily forget coffee, I don't get horrible headaches but feel dumber without it.

And I'll often drink half a cup and set it down while chasing the kid around and forget where I left it, but I'll always drink the rest when I find it no matter what temperature.

i was going to call you a "degenerate" for that last comment but then i absent-mindedly took a sip from the tepid mug of coffee next to my computer and realized i had been unconsciously doing that for the past hour.

lately i've been noticing that my chemex coffee seems to grow more delicious the longer it sits, i think it actually tastes better warm than hot

v v tru of cafetiere coffee also imo, like the biggest determinant of how nice it is is just whether or not i was patient enough to let it brew & kinda sweeten over an extra couple minutes before pouring

when i really think about this it seems so heavy, i love coffee & i feel no coffee guilt, am enabled by the recent metaanalytical study confirming coffee makes you live forever, &c, but i had a saturday recently of hanging out with people earlier than usual, & feeling slow, a lazy & unconvivial conversational participant in the morning, & then sharp & quick as soon as i had drunk coffee, the coffee spinach but my popeye strength acuity. i am p sure my sense of self takes my coffee self as the true baseline? & this isn't strange, it also probably takes like my clothed self as my true & platonic baseline in some ways, this also obviously a construct, but at the same time it reminds me how deep the connection runs

hey does anyone take coffee apparatus to work. i drink nasty work coffee all day & don't mind but i am kinda awed when i see someone traipsing back to their desk carrying this tidy lil bodum spread all ready to sup in a more civilised fashion

i wish i had a better grasp of the ideal conditions for consuming coffee in order to achieve optimal Coffee Self. usually, coffee works; sometimes coffee just fkn backfires; and sometimes it's magical, like methamphetamine minus the tweak. i read something recently that suggested drinking coffee only after ~9:30am to achieve this state. yeahhh right.

xpost i have an aeropress that just stays at work, greatest cof strategy imo

is it disguised on yr desk, like a pen holder

i wish i had a better grasp of the ideal conditions for consuming coffee

i like to drink coffee after a 1/2 hour of vigorous cardiovascular exercise

i find consuming coffee in the morning is good or whenever

A rich, velvety coffee that's great as part of an early breakfast, or for drinking anytime throughout the day.

schlump yes basically

Had some cof just now -- the office has this Jura auto-espresso machine that they fill with starbucks beans. It's like just ok enough that I try to use it and not buy coffee, but it has a slight nastiness to it. Super acidic.

am drinking mediocre coff right now :/

I'm usually a light-medium roast guy, but I got a bag of Sumatra Gayo River which was more of a medium-dark and it's making me re-evaluate. It's not at all burnt tasting, but the slightly darker roast brings out some really nice spicy notes.

Sumatra is known for being very zingy and spicy and sharp. I've never really had it light-roasted, but would be curious to try.

it's also often kinda funky! I like the funk but I know that it's not popular with many folks, especially when combined with the zingy acidity you mention.

I have usually really disliked Sumatra, but have never had (or even seen it, tbh) from a roaster I really like.

feel like a lot of good 3rd wave roasters steer clear of it due to the aforementioned funk

Apparently the humid climate in Indonesia poses some challenges to the drying practices favored by most specialty coffee buyers:
