I hate coffee

whole foods french roast
cheap blade grinder
cuisinart auto drip maker
grind an amount larger than the max fill line while rotating the grinder for evenness
dump in the thing
water up to 8-9 "cup" line

probably using too much coffee idk

i just don't trust all those lines

Those lines are hard to trust

I need to do something about my coffee game too but first I need to stop using Cafe Bustelo espresso grind in my french press.

bustelo. i spent a lot of time at HARD TIMES CAFE MN And spend a lot of time at ROCHAMBO here and at MA FISCHERS

3cup max 20m @ ma fischer's. [email protected] refills@rochambo. 1$cup/.50ç rfl@mn. im going to rochambo now

My friend had an espresso machine at her apt and used the Bustelo and it was SO GOOD (although also "so hot" and "so sweet" so maybe I should try those qualities too). Sadly does not work out the same w my french press.

The ridiculously cheap totally not fancy Mexican beans we have been using somehow taste pretty good with our espresso machine! I say "our," but it is totally the spouse's baby. I never touch it, I just drink the stuff. We also use milk and sugar so I dunno I'm sure that helps the el-cheapo beans.

in orbit, harbl - your respective sitches sound custom-made for the mighty aeropress. trust

gonna buy some nail polish and head over to ROCHAMBNO

I had friends living in Singapore the past few months, they made side trips to Hanoi and Bali and brought me these:

I feel like the Vietnamese one on the left is pretty much a scam as it was much cheaper and is very careful to use the word "weasel" a lot without every mentioning that it passed through a civet cat's digestive tract. The Indonesian one was much more expensive, specifically mentions having been shit out by an animal, and was purchased from a place with an actual civet cat on display so it's either a more elaborate scam or is actually real and therefore exploitative to animals.

Either way, I'm going to aeropress one or both of these tomorrow.

i wd drink that civet cat shit coffee

i think the cuisinart is dead. the thing that keeps coffee from dripping out while the pot is not in the machine is not staying pushed in enough, i think. so it keeps overflowing unless i am vigilant about pushing the pot back into place every 30 seconds. i would like some fancy contraption but i don't have time for that in the morning and don't want to clean it. time for another shitty coffee maker.

after i came back from drinking the world's worst coffee for two weeks in georgia and wanted to just quit coffee maybe i will

have a pleasant withdrawal

Coffee sock ranks behind only silk stocking milk tea in my all time drinks list

it's possible the coffee machine being broken is all in my head. i can't tell yet. is it dripping more slowly than normal? idk.

You could always get a Keurig

NOOOOOOOO

harbl I think you'd be into these youtubes of images of coffee makers

Don't waste that garlic sauce!

Keurig has little hot chocolate pods now, and it comes out really gross. They actually found a way to screw up hot chocolate.

my hario is even more dirty now

Re pour-over "systems:" are these noticeably different from, say, a Chemex or one of these?

http://zo-d.com/blog/archives/images/OneCup.gif

i think the difference comes from the filtering mechanism i.e. is it paper or cloth or metal

everything else is just marketing
