Coffee

I was looking a small cold brew pitcher online but then just thought maybe I can use my french press (fill with water and then scatter grounds on top) and then plunge in the morning. Has anyone tried this?

Nevermind, I see that there are many videos about this online. Am going to try for tomorrow.

that how i make cold brew, often called "cold press"

id give the mixture a stir before leaving it

bought a bean to cup and idgaf

Yr sposed to use more’n one bean

cof hair don't care

Bean cups for schlups

trying out having only one cup of coffee per day and then carrying around a thermos of green tea for the rest of the day’s caffeination. pretty nice

yeah, that's the way to live imo

I took that photo myself

i think about that sign a lot

summertime and the coffee is brewing / fish are jumping and the coffee is brewing

i'm rounding the corner of a cold and my red eye this morning was magical

drinking pretty much exclusively tim horton's double doubles these days.

there's a 3rd wave coffee shop doing the pour over right nearby but it's just too far and too slow to go to on my morning break.

iced coffee batch was weak at my spot this morning so they made me an iced americano. haven't had one in a while. not even finished yet and feel dangerously 'jacked' - what's the caffeine level in an iced americano vs. an iced coffee? their iced coffee is p strong fwiw

in other words should i finish this americano? am i feeling placebo jacked?

how many shots

finish it baby

xp not sure, probably 2?

finish it baby

depends on how the iced coffee is made. cold brew is less caffeine per volume than americanos and french press generally

Finish it and then clean something.

I had ordered the Coffee Bean Direct Penny Pinchers (dark roast) 5lb bag for ~$30 to try. It's pretty good for the price point!

i've had a few hyperjacked days recently (drinking coffee less so when it's strong it destroys me) and i can say i wish someone had told me "you don't need to finish drinking it" on a few occasions

i wouldn't have listened anyway but yes you don't have to finish it, being overjacked is not a pleasant feeling imo and it def has the opposite of intended effect (ie so jittery i can't be productive)

that needed punctuation. (i am) drinking coffee less (these days), so when it is strong, it destroys me

yeah I hate being too jacked on caffeine it blows

@jim the iced coffee is not cold brew. i think i'm allergic to cold brew - whenever i've had it, i get wheezy.

hmm, intriguing

or confusing

americanos, cappucinos etc are always 2 shots unless otherwise specified ime

it's that time again

this is me talking out out of my ass but maybe cold brew makes you wheeze because you have a mild caffeine allergy and cold brew has more caffeine than regular ice coffee and the coldness exacerbates the irritation/constriction in your lungs. I have asthma and cold shifts can make me wheezy.

had some starbucks with baileys and cream in it for the office xmas eve coffee morning

xp that's possible, I used to drink 4 shots over ice no problem though, only switched to large iced black coffee ~3 years ago, never had the wheeze with coke or Pepsi or mountain dew etc. when I was a kid. I'm def allergic to alcohol though, a corona makes me wheezy

got some single origin yirgacheffe coffee for christmas that had blueberry as a tasting note, and holy shit it actually does smell like blueberries. less noticeable on taste, but kind of a fun novelty.

yea i like african coffees, often you get notes of berries, but also citrus and black tea. very good coffee to have done via pour over or french press imo

the coffee i will be drinking this morning to help me cope with 3 hours sleep will be a double double from tim horton's ofc

i have some 2x caffeine kcups lol, but i think it's a LIE

Coffee and Sudafed - classic or dud?

i go the other way. coffee and an antihistamine that makes me drowsy. poor(er) man's speedball

yikes!

my fav is coffee+a benzo.

ah yes, coffee with a quarter xan used to be a saturday favourite

bliss is coffee and a cigarette

coffee, xan, cigarette, weed, a caesar. be a small scale caligula wading ankle-deep in the waters of decadence

i got hit with a pretty major tummy virus over the last three days and have had about half my normal cuppage. i am considering going...... without for awhile (???????)

it's not as hard as it seems once you adjust and maybe have something to substitute it like tea

I'm a tea man now

tea is fabulous

there is more variety too which is nice
