Discussion Coffee Thread

[Kiki]

I realize there's no coffee thread!

source​

So, the questions are:
- Do you like coffee? Are you a big fan? Why? (you can also state if you do not like coffee and why)
- Which do you like the most? Arabica or robusta?
- What kind do you like the most? Aceh Gayo? Ethiopia? Vietnam? Brazil? Or else?
- What coffee drink do you like the most? Espresso? Americano? Frappuccino? Or else?
- Do you like other coffee-derivative product? For example: tiramisu, coffee bun, coffee candy

Discuss!

Oohhhh look a coffee thread!!

I'm actually not that big of a coffee fan. I drink it at work during breaks, because that's faster than drinking a cup of tea. Lately I have been experimenting with making Latte Macchiato (with almond milk), which is kind of nice from time to time. Shall make a pic for this thread for it one of these days.
Oh, I do like it when coffee and chocolate are combined (like those little chocolates that have a bit of coffee in them).

How about yourself?

I am a big fan of coffee Although, I have to limit my consumption due to fast average heartbeat per minute. I drink only 1 cup a day at max. I just..like its taste. It smells so good.

I prefer robusta to arabica. Robusta is more bitter (arabica is sour) and blends well with sugar and milk (yes, I drink coffee with milk and sugar. I don't really like espresso).

Im a huge coffee fan i do drink 3/4 cup a day, and it tend to ease my migraine too. I tend to drink americano , or expresso (americano more often) but no ristretto its way to strong/bitter. i dont drink coffee with milk and sugar. I prefer pour-over, coffee made with freshly ground beans, and i dislike instant coffee. I do drink it only if i have no other options.

oh i like dessert with coffee, did a tiramisu recently

almond milk.. thats interesting! I don't think it's common here, especially in small coffee-to-go cafes. Worth trying

oh wow.. thats a lot! considering coffee is diuretic, how do you handle with dehydration, water consumption, and urination? and how about your sleep patterns?

oh btw guys, if you encounter a delicious coffee, you can share your review and photo here! I hang out a lot at cafes with my brother and we usually take photos. Many of the coffee drinks were tasty

Its not a lot, its the average coffee consumtion, actually. Also its the amount recommended to get the most benefits of coffee. High coffee consumption is like 10/12cups+ and yeah theres people who drink like 15 cups a day or even more.

Oh i tend to do that but i ve lost plenty of pics, waiting for restaurants and coffee shops to open back to rtake more. Heres a couple of pics i could find n my computer :

Taken in my fave coffee shop, when i was in Ireland.

And heres a Buna ceremony (before it started) in an Ethiopan restaurant where ive been before Covid thing started last year. Its a coffee ceremony, i havent intended to the ceremony sadly, but i think it consists in roasting coffee with incense in the jebena pot (gray device)

If I'm starting work before 8am, I tend not to have breakfast so I'll have a cup of coffee as an energy boost until a break later on. That's the only time I ever drink coffee at home. I'll really only have half of whatever cup I make (see below), so I need to change this.

Socially, I do have some coffee here and there. Through trial and error I have found my bladder would much rather have an espresso machiatto or flat white than anything else. But I will have an iced latte or maybe even a frappuccino if the weather is nice.

I like coffee because of the caffeine and taste when sugar is added. I usually add about four to ten packets of sugar, depending on the size and how bitter the coffee is.

Thank you for reading this post, may you all have a coffee day.

Why so much sugar? you're killing off the taste of the coffee itself...

 

[Kiki]

yeah M3J I was shocked at the "10 packets of sugar"..

oohh interested in that ceremony. Wish I could try it someday!

 

[M3J]

Because I dislike how bitter coffee is, and the ten packets would be for XL coffee.

• It's okay, neither here nor there
• Not sure tbh
• Whatever is local, preferably a small business
• Cappuccino
• Not really

I'll drink coffee at work. Usually mid morning, put my feet up for a bit. I rarely meet up for coffee socially tho.

Now I am drinking decaf coffee. It’s coffee from coffee beans that have had at least 97% of their caffeine removed. I just want to reduce the negative effects of caffeine on my organism, especially on the heart. I can also drink it after 18 hours and I will still sleep normally, this is a big plus for me.Іf you compare decaf coffee and regular coffee, there is almost no difference between them. Well, unless decaf has a less expressive, softer taste and aroma, but it's still delicious.

 

[Kiki]

how can anyone like coffee+soda+strawberry jam? ew

--- Double Post Merged, Oct 16, 2021, Original Post Date: Oct 16, 2021 ---

also coffee+tonic water. ew

 

[Brandish μ]

I started espresso (double) a little while back because it's easier, now I prefer it.

 

[M3J]

I kinda am addicted to cawfee, and it sucks. Starbucks' coffee is horrid though, unless it's blonde roast.

 

[Sanity Check]

Be careful with teh covfefe.

 

[Kiki]

I never tried all of those tbh. Branded products are overrated.

my barista coach said starbucks dont sell coffee, they sell sugar

 

[Raven]

Do you like coffee? Are you a big fan? Why? (you can also state if you do not like coffee and why)

No i don't like coffee, and i'm not a fan, I hate it because of it's taste. It's just that bad.

 

[M3J]

Out of those on that list, only the frozen coffee could be considered coffee.
