Can bots drink coffee? Do androids dream of electric lattes?

Re: The Coffee Thread
four barrel coffee from san francisco. the kenyan blend. ive never had a coffee that made me feel kinda high before. its freakin awesome!2020k wrote:Did a quick search, didn't see a thread on this. Anyone else a big fan of coffee?
How do you like it? Favorite blend? Favorite coffee shop?
Inspired by Ghostly International coming out with their own roast. Which I want to badly try.
I prefer mine dark and black like my soul. No cream. No sugar. But an occasional flavored latte is great.
I discovered my favourite coffee in the world, and would recommend to you all. And this is following over a year recently backpacking through central and south america, tasting some of the best local-brewed coffee I came across, in particular in Guatemala and Colombia (Guatemala being my previous high point).
Jamaica's 'Jablum' coffee from the Blue Mountains. It can be difficult to find in places, but a friend of mine recently brought me some back...
...blows all other coffee out the water in my experience. More of a 'high' than a 'jitters' & 'anxiety' factors (they are near-enough non-apparant).
highly recommend.

i make it with a mocca pot (italian coffee maker) because basically it's my only option.
i drink 2-3 coffees a day.
back when i had a french press i drank 3-4 coffees a day (with the same amount of coffee grinds), so i kind of like the mocca's extraction efficiency
still, i'm happy to see all you hipsters having fun

Re: The Coffee Thread
I kept breaking my french presses - I guess I clean a little too vigorously..
Bought a pour-over (bodum brand, if that means anything), and I think I finally mastered it! No sourness like you get from light roasts sometimes. One pro over french presses is that the lack of sludge means you don't get over-extraction over time as your coffee sits in its thermos. No more bitterness after a long night in the library

I never would have guessed Dave Grohl is that fantastic in person..
Re: The Coffee Thread
Much as he writes total crap these days, I cant bring myself to dislike Mr Grohl. Any mate of Lee Dorian cant be all bad 
Re: The Coffee Thread
I've always liked a good cup of coffee, but lately I've been going all out. I'm back living with my folks, due to health reasons, and they have a decent espresso maker. It's a little more work than the average cup of coffee, but boy is it worth it! I can't get enough of the stuff. Lately I've been sprucing it up with some southern butternut pecan creamer. Wow!

Re: The Coffee Thread
Y'know, I don't have a coffee maker at home, but I pounce on a coffee shop at any chance I get. I'm a sugar but no cream kind of guy. Starbucks is OK, but there's an excellent coffee shop downtown in my town. It has probably the most generic name ever; I think it's called like "Joe's Espresso Bar".
