yeah i def need more than 1 cup

I've been thinking about getting a regallar ol drip pot, too. I've actually cut back to about 2-3 cups a day, tops, so it's not so much the volume but that when I get up at 6:00 for work it'd be nice to just sorta hit a button and let coffee brew itself while I hop in the shower, instead of waiting around for water to boil on the stove etc.

always waiting for it to cool down enough to drink anyway

Try an ice cube, my man.

i have a one cup filter i got in Hanoi for like the equivalent of 29 cents that makes the best damn drip coffee (no paper filter bs either). it's all stainless steel and so easy to use/clean.

we talkeda bout mint syrup in coffee upthread, but not mint leaves. i think i'd be afraid. i have been drinking trader joe's coffee the past few days and it's ok, not great. i'm gonna go back to fancy coffee soon.

i need coffee

i've got out of the habit of putting 4/5 sugars in coffee

terrible habit etc

and for more pretentious reasons stirring in sugar destroys the elegant swirl of coffee through foam on top of a latte

yeah I always cringe when a barista sets down a perfectly made rosetta latte in front of a customer and the customer promptly dumps 2 packets of sugar on top of it

then the barista should ask in advance?

i always thought tons of sugar in coffee was a crazy american thing but i was in italy this summer and had my mind blown by every single italian dumping mounds of sugar into their espresso at the coffee bars

starbucks anniversary blend is a good name and kind of a funny coffee.

it's too late for coffee and i haven't actually touched the work. oops.

coffee-drinking has been a very different experience now that i no longer use cream or sugar.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 21 September 2010 20:58 (thirteen years ago) link

yeah it's way better but also it makes you too picky sometimes, won't drink just any old office coffee, look like a jerk

I like sweet coffees--lattes and the like--but not regular brewed coffee. I didn't even like that until a few years ago.

Christine Green Leafy Dragon Indigo, Tuesday, 21 September 2010 21:00 (thirteen years ago) link

i liked sweet coffees, too. but they're loaded with sugar and calories, i sadly discovered.

Daniel, Esq., Tuesday, 21 September 2010 21:00 (thirteen years ago) link

i dropped my french press on the floor and it didn't break

Little did I know that my pour-over method (with plastic on-top-of-cup thingie and non-presoaked coffee filters) was a thing! I actully prefer the taste from auto-dripping, but it is too much hassle for just one cup.

this is how the dudes at my coffee shop do it - you may need to adjust your grind size to suit your tastes or if it's filtering too quickly/slowly

dayo, Sunday, 2 January 2011 23:57 (thirteen years ago) link

do you find it really tastes different than paper filter? i have a melitta manual drip thing (it's what my parents have always used except for occasionally buying electric coffee makers, which inevitably break) but i always use the french press.

paper is 'more polite' imo

dayo, Monday, 3 January 2011 00:04 (thirteen years ago) link

what does that mean? weak?

positive reflection is the key (harbl), Monday, 3 January 2011 00:05 (thirteen years ago) link

maybe i'll try drip for a change tomorrow

positive reflection is the key (harbl), Monday, 3 January 2011 00:05 (thirteen years ago) link

the paper absorbs some of the oils & other compounds

dayo, Monday, 3 January 2011 00:07 (thirteen years ago) link

I dunno maybe that's just parrotting received wisdom. I haven't tried paper drip in a long time but iirc there def was a difference between paper drip and other types of drip (swissgold, sock filter)
