tbf probably some coffee shop is going to be using a french press that way and claiming they invented it sometime by 2020

lol @ reverse French Press method. Is this guy one of those millennials I've been reading with who can't even deal with cereal because there's too much cleanup or whatever?

Tim Horton's coffee is the worst. Emergency-only nighttime-driving coffee. I don't understand how people purposely make it a part of their morning routine. my bf worked at one on the east coast when he was a teen and the drive thru was lined up to the street every morning.
That French press story on the other hand is excellent.

I would sooner drink a cup of upside down french press coffee than a cup of timmy ho's signature cigarette-butt-kombucha that they call coffee
xp but yes 2 that & also the cruller

I wish the company behind Nespresso wasn't evil, I'd like an espresso pod machine in my office for afternoon caffeine injections.

I don't really like Aeropress coffee, it's too much like a regular cup of coffee. I pretty much just drink double espressos or cold brew concentrate without watering it down.
The other problem with Nespresso in the US is that you have to mail order capsules (unless you have a Nespresso shop nearby, the closest to me is ~45 minutes), so if you run out without replenishing you're just SOL.
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Friday, 26 February 2016 20:01 (eight years ago) link
ya but even when you make it acc to the official directions (like only a few tablespoons of water per scoop of coffee)?
― police patrol felt the smell of smoke and found that goat burns (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 26 February 2016 20:04 (eight years ago) link
Pretty sure I never tried anything but their basic directions and it was still too 'cup of coffee'-like for me.
At home I have a Crossland CC1 machine that's pretty good but fiddlier than I like and occasionally get wonky with the electronics (forgets settings, etc.), thinking of selling it and getting a lever machine.
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Friday, 26 February 2016 20:07 (eight years ago) link
ya, timmy's coffee is disgusting
their chili is pretty good, though. and you can't go wrong with timbits

Some people are putting in coffee bars at comic shops, which is interesting but I'm extremely slow at making espresso for myself at home, can't imagine trying to do it for real or training others.
― Kiarostami bag (milo z), Friday, 26 February 2016 20:09 (eight years ago) link
lolol one of those just opened near my coworker and he says it suuuuuucks, like decent comics but the coffee is a total afterthought

like in 2016 why the fing f wd you make ANY sort of cof shop, hybrid or otherwise, and not strive for great cof? There is no room for so so cof anymore.
― police patrol felt the smell of smoke and found that goat burns (Stevie D(eux)), Friday, 26 February 2016 20:12 (eight years ago) link
i wonder by % how many timbits sold are being brought to offices by people trying to bribe and/or apologize

i moved to Canada on the 4th of July. a year later on Canada Day I had yet to visit a Tim Horton's so I went and got a double double and a box of timbits and had them at home listening to the tragically hip

wait the coffee/comics thing is supposed to be new? we had one of those over a decade ago, then they relocated and lost the coffee business, and have already relocated a second time and have both again. and some sort of cronut-like thing.
― μpright mammal (mh), Friday, 26 February 2016 21:54 (eight years ago) link
what is the best canned cof, are you buying illy or something
ya i bought the illy idk whats the best it tastes fine if a lil sweet i dont usually take sugar just wanted something to get some quick caffeine cldve gone w an energy drink or diet coke i guess but i thought hey why not some cof
― lag∞n, Friday, 26 February 2016 22:00 (eight years ago) link
they're great for awhile until you realise that all the capsules taste the same, no matter what color they are, and you're stuck with that flavor forever. plus the evilness and waste obv.
