central business district.?

so I've switched to * o Clock columbian - I like to drink columbian - I was raised on it

i have another story but will keep it to myself this time

Just got on Oxo Barista Brain coffee maker. Think I like it better than my Chemex. Going to try brewing some different blends over the weekend.

please report

I’m at Intelligentsia in Silver Lake drinking a pourover.

xp

Good flavor, can pretty much replace the Chemex. Wish the carafe were bigger and could go in the dishwasher.

just got one of these, noticed an improvement

I haven't had any coffee today, need to fix that quickly

intelligentsia is okay

if youre ever in culver city bar 9 does some decent cof

No tellin if they slip in som coca leavs in that brew.
I been grindin too! morning noise of the grinder - dont think Im fooling around here! I am ready for the coffee to enert my essence

what percentage of non dunkin coffee places would you say have at least a slight jesus people vibe?

i think it is 75%

in vancouver a number of the coffee shops are ran by evangelicals including one of the larger local chains

including probably the two best third-wave coffee shops

bean around the world is popular/mainstream enough where all sorts of people go to them tho

is bean around the world evangelical too? i was referring to jj bean

coffee def makes u closer to god

i worked at jj bean for about 8 months when i first moved to vancouver. they put on a really good christmas party for the staff with roast beef and chicken and all the fixings etc. and a few free drinks. so the owner goes up to do a speech and one of my colleagues said "he's going to cry, he cries every year while making the speech". and sure enough he did. he's also an extremely personable person irl who makes a point of knowing every member of staff's name and using it when he talks to them. evangelicals are weird.

cappu at the local
lots of staff turnover at this place

At least it’s quiet
I understand that playing (loud, noxious?) music is part of the business model but fuck man

is bean around the world evangelical too? i was referring to jj bean

I shld say my bestfriend is a minister in vancouver and, totally no judgment, but there are a lot of personal-jesus types in the city cherry picking what to believe

there are a lot of different denominational churches in the city so this probably adds to it

yeah there are lot of protestant churches which don't belong to any major international established denominations.

thread derail over: i just drank some decaf starbucks with some almond baileys in it like a normy

why not just pay for straight up flavored coffee

i mean if you're going to let yourself go like that

silly opinion. Colombia has the most reliably good mass-market coffee, and has some nice small-lot coffee too, and I've had really good coffees from Bolivia and Peru as well. Not a fan of Brazilian coffee though.

otm. there's some good news out of Central America, too. Starbucks' Casi Cielo is p. reliably good morning coffee. In other news, an Intelligentsia opened up right near my house. It is nice to have a fancy coffee shop nearby, and the staff are knowledgable/friendly, but (a) why did they have to install modernist entirely minimalist furniture and (b) they don't heat up either their Chemex pots or the little pitchers into which they, like, decant the coffee, so that by the time the coffee makes it into your (also) unheated mug, it is just a degree over room temperature.

xp. mass-market coffee is no good

get on my level
