Rly do not mind McD's coffee and, as far as drip goes, it's much more drinkable than any of Starbucks' drip brews.

v much agree. Starbucks' inability to make and serve a drinkable drip coffee is baffling. They used to sometimes have blends that were ok, I don't remember which ones but the one near my college campus rotated coffees a lot and sometimes it was good.

McD's coffee pairs well with McFlurry

I remember Starbucks having perfectly fine drip coffee circa 1989, though I don't recall sampling it any time in the past two decades-plus. Sells to a difference audience now. Dunkin Donuts drinkers, maybe?

i just got black cold drip at my place, with a few ice cubes and good god it was delicious. like coffee whiskey or something.

It is impossible to get not terrible coffee on my way to work. There's coffee, but it's just a way of getting caffeinated. I've resigned myself to DD's which I think is the best of the bunch.

i don't know what it is but starbucks tastes different depending on the city
better in seattle/pnw for me
dunkin donuts is okay
timmy's is not good
― F♯ A♯ (∞), Tuesday, 24 May 2016 17:29 (ten years ago)
starbucks drip significantly better than dunkin donuts imo

I'm at a conference that has kuerig pod coffee machines everywhere on site and it is free but that doesn't make it good.

i've been drinking mostly central american light roasts that are extremely bright and acidic, kind of got burned out on them tbh, then my wife bought me some ethiopian medium roast and it's been a really nice change

― sexy dander (Stevie D(eux)), Wednesday, 25 May 2016 17:08 (ten years ago)
oh crut i am so sorry :(
also let me just take this moment to throw some serious side-eye @ establishments that use the same # of espresso shots in all of their diff sizes

This is an abomination. Usually they also have not the best espresso, and then you get that awful toilety taste of one shitty espresso shot drowning, and straining to make you aware of its existence, under 16 oz of milk or whatever.
― a man a plan alive (man alive), Wednesday, 25 May 2016 18:58 (ten years ago)
in my case it's the fancy 3rd-wave cof shop closest to my building, which just served me maybe the most delicious iced latte i've ever had but it cost $4.50 and was only like 12oz, and if I got the larger size it would be $5 and be way more diluted
― sexy dander (Stevie D(eux)), Wednesday, 25 May 2016 19:00 (ten years ago)
ideally the sizes would all take into account the volume of espresso in a shot and scale accordingly to keep the espresso to water/ice/milk/whatever ratio the same regardless of size
― μpright mammal (mh), Wednesday, 25 May 2016 19:01 (ten years ago)
kind of surprised to hear of a fancy 3rd wave place doing that
