The other day I bought some starbucks yukon blend and it was the most overburnt disgusting coffee I've ever tasted, bar none.
Really dark oily shit that didn't even have the distinctive brown lushy foam during brewing that i like so much.
I don't even know how they managed to fuck this up, the bag says medium roast.
I went back the next day and exchanged it for some jose's columbian.
The worst part is it doesn't even start off bad until it leaves a disgusting sludgy aftertaste that coats your mouth and doesn't go away!

If there's one good thing about living in Brazil (and south america as a whole) is the quality and variety of coffees you can get.

I have an Aero Press and that's what I use most of the time when not at work.

I buy Piatã (a medium roast from the country side of Brazil). It has a lovely brown color and very dense body, almost no bitterness and high acidity, I love it.

It costs around 4 USD for 250grams.

>$500 grinder

Starbucks French roast mixed with whatever store brand Costco sells, drip brewed. I enjoy the burned beans, Fite me.

>>8995184
>buying Starbucks anything
You're literally wasting your money. Find your nearest hipster coffee shop and buy your beans there.

>>8995364
I don't feel like paying $15 for 8oz of coffee

>>8995376
You get what you pay for anon. If you have a Whole Foods or one of its yuppie equivalents, they also have coffee beans for a more reasonable price.

>>8995376
>$15 for 8oz

Are those coffee cups just for show?
Why do they do this?

>>8995464
Did you explicitly tell them it's for here? The default is the to go cups since items safer to assume you won't be staying.

I absolutely love this shit. Pretty much everything Taylor's makes is beautiful, except for their darkest roast which always smells slightly fishy for some weird reason. Lazy Sunday is the perfect cozy morning coffee.
Aeropress and french press are my go-to brew methods, although I would love a proper espresso machine one day.

/ck/ I've been looking for a high-quality travel mug (18-24 oz) for the past two weeks and can't pick one. I went through the nearby target's selection and had the following issues:

ugly clunky handle
cheap plastic / unaesthetic
ugly top-heavy look (see pic)

The thinner stainless steel ones like the contigo and ello bottles hold my interest but at the mouth opening they have some clickity-clackity plastic spring system for sealing in liquid which will probably fail after a few months of regular use.

The package is nice.

Hi /coffee/, this week I've tried shitty coffee to write why the coffee a buy and make at home is better. When I have some money I'm gonna to some café and try something more expensive and compare to my coffee. I really need to go back to writing my food reviews but college takes too much time. Luckly my vacation starts next month then I'm gonna have a schedule of 8 to 10 hours a day dedicated to food (both practice and theory). I need to read some food biochemistry and focus on savory dishes. Last time I was learning baking but you end up eating too much calories.

During vacation I'm gonna read/write about industrial coffee processing and try to use this as introduction for my conclusion paper next year. I plan to research coffee fermentation.

>>8995480
Taylor's is rubbish

>>8995565

Chicory is a fucking meme mostly. It will wake you up something fierce, though, just by the heavy flavor alone. I use it for that, since caffeine doesn't always do enough for me.

Every day cup is caribou medium or dark (don't like light unless the beans are pristine) in a pour over. I'm not too much of a coffee snob so that's usually good enough. Also Land of a Thousand Hills is GOAT when it come to coffee shops.

Bought myself a bialetti on recommendation of mocka anon who posted a long tutorial a few breads ago. Still trying to figure out how to make my shitty gas stove go low enough to make the process take 12min.

It's an extraction process. You want to use as little volume of solvent as possible for the best extraction. Doing it at low heat for a long time over high heat for a short time will increase the efficiency of your extraction process. Also you run a smaller risk of burning the coffee

Where do y'all get your beans?

I buy my coffee from Indonesia. I've had coffee from nearly every country and Indonesian is my favourite.

>>8996161
But that also heats up the beans. And 90% of the time is getting the water up to temp and building pressure. Should be starting with hot water too, if you aren't already.

>>8995184
>>8995352
God dammit. You guys are clearly repeating memes you've heard. The beans themselves from starbucks packaging are fine, and taste nothing like the store. At the starbucks locations they put pretty much no care into how they actually extract the coffee and burn them there.
>>8996108
Bialetti is top tier. I use mine wherever I go, so I usually use it on electric stovetops. Sorry. I'm sure there is some way for you to figure it out, keep trying.

I'm lazy and buy Lavazza grounds. Arabic tastes the best to me, but I'm not really adventurous so I've only ever tried all of the standard kinds, and then Cafe Bustello which I really didn't like. Pointlessly acrid, in my opinion. To the point where people who "like" it put milk in it. Bah, I don't see the point in adding milk and sugar in coffee if you don't at least try a weaker coffee without the cream. But that's just me I guess.

>>8996187
I don't know how you think water evaporating works, but I can assure all of the water in the lower cup does not evaporate at once. The reason you do it at a low temperature is to make sure there is a small amount of evaporation going on for an extended period of time. Like I said you want a small volume of solvent for the most efficient extraction. I have some mathematical formulas I could write out, but really that seems redundant when google exists.
>>8996247
Yeah I will keep trying it out until I get it right. At the moment it just takes 4 minutes on the smallest plate on the smallest flame to make a 3-cup. I'm going to try make it on the second largest plate with the smallest flame next time, but only expose half of the moka to the flame. I will just keep trying until I find the trick.

>>8995968
Yeah, I plan to improve the quality of coffee threads as I learn. Hope that autist posting the dark secrets of the industry goes away.

Now I'm focusing on finish my exams through june so I have the entire july to play not only with coffee but food too.

Btw having my first sip just now (11:30 AM) where I live and thinking about the bad choices food oriented i had in the past. Now that I'm really involved with this mindset of investing my money in the foods that really matter I'll probably be able to buy more expensive beans to try. Basically I wasted a lot of money in sweets and shitty burgers for too long.
Good that I'm losing weight since I eat clean and only when I hungry. I've turned into a skeleton and I should bulk a bit (because I exercise) but I'll try to lose a bit more to freak my mum and my grandma when I go back home.

>>8996108
Kek, don't know how they make stoves in USA but where I live it is impossible to lower the gas this much.

>>8996170
Brazil since I live in Brazil and we don't have things from other countries. Even decent brazilian coffee is alien to 95% of the population. I'm considered lower middle class by the official classification (aka really really poor) but I'm truly blessed with college food so I can save a bit of money and buy coffee beans. For example:

>1 kg of decent beans
R$ 60
>1 kg of coffee people get in these threads (considered top tier)
R$ 120-160
>1 kg luxury tier coffee (imported)
R$ 200-300

>1 kg shitty pre grounded coffee everyone drinks
>R$ 12

I'm only able to buy coffee beans because a cup costs R$ 0,60 a day to me. I can't buy some luxury tier because I would feel like I'm stealing from my poor mom. Same as eating pizza or burgers. I only eat these after a saving.

>>8996346
I have an amount of money to spend on food per week so I've been creating saving by fasting and saving money to buy burgers and sweets. Now after some thinking I'm gonna stop this shit and save for coffee and buying ingredients to train my cooking skills.
The root of the problem was emotional eating because I'm a very anxiety person but after some thinking I'm cured. My cravings have stopped since I went back to sprinting and focusing on improving performance and learning. Now just a matter of time until I can try new coffee. I'm gonna post as I learn, unluckly no pics since I don't have a camera.

Now I need to go to college but tomorrow I can post more poverty histories and a bit about the coffee market in Brazil if someone is interested in.

I put a bit of maple syrup in my coffee the other day.

yeah my post implies I accepted that it's not gas and that the phase being liquid instead doesn't change the main point of my original post. I thought typing out 'the' in front of 'phase' would make that clear.

Carelessly brewed preground and vacuum sealed discounter coffee until less then a year ago. Then used a moka and for a few weeks now this cheap old machine and a rather light espresso blend from an old local roaster.

anyone here roast their own coffee?
thinking about starting to cut costs, but it seems unlikely I'll get something approximating a nice roast with a stovetop/air popper, and the next tier up seems like it'd eat the profit up

>>8997207

Pretty sure your endorphin receptors were shot after a night out. This started to happen to me in my 20's. Just switch to a strong tea if you can. Also, in general, after drinking you're more sensitive to most things (light, sound, paranoia, anxiety, depression)

>>8995565
Buy something like an RTIC Mug or a yeti, and then buy a handle for it. I have one that I use for teas and it stayed so hot for over two hours that I still burned my tongue. It would be around 30 USD

>>8995565
The contigo snap-seal mugs are actually really good, I've been using them for years and they're completely leak proof, even with daily use.
The seal mechanism is very simple, it's just plastic with one moving part to snap the rubber stopper in place.

Last wed finally bought a burger that I was avoiding for months. Then instead of eating as fast as possible I took the time to appreciate and analyze the food. In the end I realized that it is pointless to crave some expensive shitty food. I can cook a much better burger for less at home and or crave some decent food.
The utility from a bag o coffee is much greater than the utility in a shitty burger. Maybe I could go to the capital and find a much better burger but then I would need to spend more than I spend buying coffee.

I live in the middle of nowhere because of college. The city had 3 supermarkets but now we have only two. One is for rich people and the other for poor people.
In the nice one theres nespresso everywhere. Dont know how popular it is in USA but here they are really focused into marketing as much as possible. Even unrelated coffee products are using nespresso as promotion. I friend that hates coffee said he was buying capsules to try at work because they have a machine and you only need to bring the capsules. The coffee section is half capsules and half grounded expensive coffee with beautiful packing. Don't know about the quality since I only buy whole beans of the same brand.
In the market for poor people you have like 5 generic shitty grounded coffee brands that are just sad. There's only one passable grounded coffee brand that costs a bit more but people prefer buying the cheapest possible.

Once I saw and ad about whole beans for the price of grounded coffee. Bought 2 kg and received a coffee that was charcoal black and covered in something (I believe burnt sugar). I found dog fur, stones and small branches in my first attempt using this. Brewed a cup that tasted horrible then put everything in the trash and learned to never buy food too cheap.

Don't know about industrial process but in the countryside they used to roast coffee with sugar for some reason in the past. My grandma said she remembers adding sugar during the roast because that's how everyone did. Dumb people probably still do this and end up fucking even more their burnt coffee.

Watching grinder comparison charts from Baratza, and particle distribution charts, there almost no major difference to justify the price range of different models. According to pic related, virtuoso is the most versatile with 200-1400 grind range, but the 2nd cheapest option. Am I missing something here?

Looking good anon. Have you considered two step grinders at all? The Rocky can be as good choice as any. Getting bang for your buck with grinders is difficult, like half of them seem to be scams for people who don't research at all.

>>9003669
60g/liter which is 1:16.666666666666

My uncle has a farm with a few coffee plants. His employer do the over roasting and then he grinds everything at some cooperative with an industrial grinder. They have coffee for the entire year. I once tried his coffee and it is just shit. First the ground smells nothing like coffee, it has no smell at all. Since they fuck up the roasting the coffee gets burnt and after brewing you have a cup without any aroma that tastes like charcoal tea.

Why aren't you using your coffee grounds twice?
Most people who use coarse grinds, like drip and french press grinds aren't extracting even half of the flavor from their beans before they throw them out, it's such a waste.
Next time, try using less beans, but grind them much finer to extract their contents much more completely.

My uncle smokes, probably cant taste anything and outs sugar in the coffee as the rest of his family. See this is the standard in Brazil, shitty grounded coffee with sugar. I prepared the coffee I'm used to drink for them and they found it too bland and added sugar.

Been thinking about it. $11/lb isn't bad if the coffee is as decent as everyone says. Been trying some local roasters and none of their beans have really stood out to me. Certainly not worth ~$17/lb at least

Sounds that you are smart.
One time I went to a very good grocery store with good meat section wanting to buy some ground beef to make burgers at home, (that store medium chain) always had good looking lean beef
but that evening they were sold out, the butcher was apologizing very sincerely because I told him I have two bottles of good red wine and a female company and we are going to make burgers tonight.
He saw how unhappy I was and told me that he only has frozen "meat" they use to grind in the morning for that nice looking lean ground beef and he can sell it to me and I would need to grind it my self.
I said no problem because I do have hand cranked meat grinder, but he stopped and said actually I don't think this is a good idea, he said you don't really wan't to do that.
I said of course I do, it's late (like 7 PM) and I'm not going to drive around to buy ground beef, so I like to buy that frozen "meat", the butcher said I'm sorry I told you that but you should not buy it.

At that point I was confused and shocked that he was backing out.I insisted telling him how my evening will be ruined if I don't have beef tonight to make burgers with that hot girl.
So he said OK, and cut off piece of that frozen "meat" for me, give me discount of course because was not grounded.

I come home let this "thing" thaw and amongst some pieces of nice lean red meat I saw whole bunch of some weird looking shit, I was shocked at the strange looking pieces of "something" I was seeing there.
I took some of it and without grounding I put it on a frying pan wanting to see what the hell it was.
After all the red meat was done I was trying to eat it, red meat was of course great but those other pieces tasted terrible and I could not chew them, I was fucking chewing that shit (you know mouth full)
for like solid 2-3 minutes,much

/next pg

>for like solid 2-3 minutes,much
much longer than it took to chew the red meat from it, and that shit was still hard like a shoe leather. I look at it and all those funny looking pieces of "meat" were different parts of the cow,
like the skin from under the armpits and other shitty parts of the cow, they were tough like wood but when they are grounded we don't notice that of course,
and the portion of lean ground beef looks so good in the display fridge at the store.
Of course I stopped right there and changed the menu for that evening and I never ever again bought ground beef from the store, from any store.
Now I only buy chunk of meat and I deal with it and I do whatever I like with it, and you right it's cheaper that way and you know what you are eating.

If you smart you will never buy hamburgers or hamburger meat or hot dogs, you buy chunk of meat and work with it at home.
Fuck the processed meats, most is loaded with chemical shit and all crap body parts mixed together and it looks so fucking good on display.

>>9009929
Depends. If you need more extraction, pour slow. If you need less extraction, pour faster.

I dont think it's as simple as pouring faster/slower for weaker/stronger what i mean is if i dump all my water, it'll kind of bath in the grounds longer, but might also be more diluted since it's all in there at once. Alternatively, if I pour it as fast as it goes down all the time, the water might not be in the grounds very long.

in general you bloom at the beginning (that first pour, ~2-3x the mass of the beans), then either do a few small pours or one continuous stream, both of which should keep the water level at a constantish height as coffee extracts through
but what you should do also depends on the cone (angle/channels/opening will vary) and filters. your best bet is to look up other people's setups on brewmethods et al, and vary based on how it comes out by https://baristahustle.com/blogs/barista-hustle/the-coffee-compass

I don't know about USA but here in Brazil you can have shitty burgers that costs more than a burger produced at home or go to nice places and maybe have a really nice burger. Problem is that I don't have money for this. Since I like cooking and, most important, have time to cook it is the perfect opportunity to eat better food.
Now I'm trying healthier and more balanced meals. I plan to try burgers only once a month. The idea is to have nice balanced food and avoid craving burgers and cake.

I think now I'm gonna in controlling my eating habits. Today I just noticed that coffee only is better than breakfast + coffee. Feeling empty feels good and I'm just gonna fast today. I've been eating complex carbs and more protein. Feeling full is nice but not feeling full all the time not.

I've had Brazilian coffees from Daterra and Fazenda Dutra, from multiple different roasters, brewed in a variety of different ways, and in no case was it anything more than ok

Granted, ok is better than shit, and Brazil coffee has historically been shit (see >>9001244)

But I mean, the way people talk it up (despite being low altitude hot climate coffee), you'd think it was the second coming or whatever. As far as pulp natural process coffees go, I'll take a Tarrazu over Brazilian no question

I just gave up trying to pair coffee with anything. I know you can enhance both the beverage and the food by pairing but I prefer to drink coffee alone.

I want to go back to fasting but it will impact in my performance during the week. I'm probably do some caloric restriction for 10 days, fast for 2 and try to cut water weight just before going home to look even more skinny just too see my moms reaction.

>>9011880
are you trying to lose weight? Just eat properly (under caloric requirements) for 5 days a week then waterfast during the weekends.

coffee + bread and butter
coffee + anything chocolate

Man I won't be able to be a smoker even if I wanted. I bought a cigarillo in december to remember how it tastes (had the last one 4 years ago) and never ever want to try this again.
Don't know how people pair coffee + cigar. Tastes are too similar, you can get smoke notes from dark roast.

Pão de Açúcar has a lot of those. Also, my girlfriend is from Poços de Caldas, so it's easy to go there and buy some coffee.

I'm very skinny, my BF probably under 12 (I can see too many abs veins) and I have boxing class monday morning so sunday fasting is a no no. Can't fast during sat because I feel weak on monday. My cardio load for the week makes me eat a bit more now otherwise I feel weak and I suspect it makes recovery harder.
While I was still trying to fast sometimes I had a sprint session then took me 3 days to fully recover my knees. I prefer to sacrifice fasting than performance/exercise sessions.

I have a Hario Mini Mill and the piece of shit broke after only one year and a half of usage. The metal where you put the handle simply wore out because of the cheap metal they used.

Which manual grinder should I buy now? I have no money for a Lido and I was thinking about getting a Porlex.

mini mill / skerton is by far the best option until you hit the $200+ range unless you are only grinding for french press

even if only press, you can buy a cheap mod for the skerton that significantly increases the consistency of its coarse grind

Fasting is very beneficial to human body and mind, intensifies your spirituality (if you are inclined to explore spirituality).
When I made very similar decision to yours to stop spending money on food in restaurants, to eat the moment I started to feel hunger in my stomach, when I conditioned
my mind and my body not to panic just to wait till I get home and made my own food that will be much cheaper and I will know exactly what I'm eating it was very rewarding both financially
and peace of mind on food quality on health and hygiene of food workers that many times could be extremely questionable and gross.

And sometimes when I run out of most of my regular food items I wait for day or two or three or four and eat very simple things I have left and experience mini fasting or at least less food intake.
Allows your body to relax and slow down, enables your mind to refocus. Definitely beneficial on few levels.

>>9001244
>Starbucks sources coffee from Brazil
>>9011685
>I don't understand the "Brazil is good coffee now" meme
is it Brazilian coffee mostly Robusta beans and that's the reason for lower quality, tho I know that there are good high quality of Robusta beans as well as there are low shitty quality of Arabica beans,
but the general taste differences and very significant caffeine levels between the two of them are remaining despite of quality level.

>>9011939

I'm trying to stay in the lowest weight possible without losing muscle/performance.

I have scoliosis and I suspect that aditional weight will fuck up my right knee since the unbalanced load is greater in my right leg.
Also I just like being skinny for some reason (maybe I'm a bit anorexic). Looking in the mirror and seeing my skinny body feels to good to the point it makes me nervous during a cheat day. Seeing my college friends going to >20%BF through the years didn't help too. I don't want to go the same route.

But I plan my mini cutting before going back home just to freak out my mom and grandma when they see me.

>>9011943
>unless you're using a $500 grinder you are wasting your time
Exactly, and that's before taxes $500.
Otherwise you are poor pleb that should not even look at the coffee beans or use some cheap (under $500) coffee grinder.

I've had a cup of coffee once from a local restaurant and it tasted like concentrated pepper. How the hell did they even make that?

>>9012141
>spirituality
Yeah I pray 2 times a day, go to church every sunday and today I'm decorating a hat with real flowers to attend a procession later.

I don't know if fasting did anything to my spirituality but indeed it brings peace of mind. Makes easier to appreaciate other aspects of life other than food. I remember sometimes where I was basically just waiting for the next meal (without noticing). I binged on something and even while I was eating my mind was focusing on the next meal. Luckly I'm cured. During these anxious days weekend fasting (also genetics) prevented me from getting >15%BF. I consumed twice my TDEE very often.

and if you have Aeropress you will never be wanting to use this two pieces of plastic pipes with rubber seal made from recycling car tires again to make your coffee.

Drinking a coffee from Nicaragua right now. A gorgeous medium roast grown on a microplot.

Nutty, full-bodied, oily. Very low acidity. If you brew it just right, it tastes like chocolate ice cream.

Almost always french press. Occasionally pour overs on the weekend when I have some single origin stuff on hand and some more time to brew/deal with equipment.

>>9014378
Okay let's try this another way. Let's say there's a $250 machine that beats the hell out of similarly priced ones and a $500 machine that does the same, what benefits am I looking at to warrant this $250 difference?

Sorry, not gonna talk about weight anymore. I promise.

Back to coffee, having my first sip of the day right now. Brewed very nice today. I don't use a thermometer every time I brew but from time to time I like to check if my instinct is right. Later night I'm gonna boil water and see if I'm getting closer to 90º C.
Yesterday I tried to find these cheap gourmet coffee some supposed brazilians here said they buy but couldn't find any websites. I still have 1,5 kg of beans that gonna last for 2 to 3 months. I have R$48/month for coffee so after I run out of beans I can invest in something more expensive.

>>9014378

Well you can try brewing a stronger french piss and adding real chantilly. I don't know about USA but here we have chantilly containing 100 ingredients that tastes like shit. Order a cappuccino and you get nice coffee + shitty chantilly. Or you can buy real cream and make real chantilly at home then add to your stronger coffee.

whats the deal with turkish coffee? is there anything special about the beans or is it literally just the preparation?

Went to a local coffee shop and they had this tin out as a decoration. I thought the turkish coffee was real good, and am thinking about brewing it at home, since it was 5$ for a 6oz pour, and its 12$ for 500g of the stuff.

pic related. If I put it in a cup with some boiling water will it taste similar to putting it in a pot and boiling it over 3 times?

Is getting a grinder worth it if I only drink decaf?
I've been drinking some shitty preground decaf with a pourover cup for years now.

>>9016006
>Is getting a grinder worth it if I only drink decaf?
Only if it cost at least $500. Otherwise you are poor pleb that should not even look at the coffee beans or use some cheap (under $500) coffee grinder.

>>9016024
no for decaf is OK to go under $500, but not below $350

Drink it if you like it, avoid it if you don't. Doing anything else is irrational.

>>8995405
Kona beans are fucking amazing though

>>9016070

They burn the shit out of their beans. It makes their espresso good for mixing and their mixed drinks are good, but for coffee at home there are far better options.

>>9016044
I genuinely don't understand by what metric you quantify that.

>>9016193
its just shitty nothing special coffee
there is nothing to quantify here

Hi /coffee/

I want to try making coffee ice cream and it asks for instant coffee in milk, and i'd like to try it with actual coffee. I've read that if you put warm milk on coffee in a french press (which is what i've got) it will over infuse and be disgusting. However, I was thinking about putting cold milk and coffee, leave it to rest (maybe stir sometimes) and after a couple of hours filtering the milk with the french press. Is it a good idea or should I give up and buy instant coffee?

>>9016801

Milk doesn't have the solvent power of water. I'd say prepare some cold brew coffee, instead. Make it extra strong, and then add it to your ice cream mix (make sure to account for the extra liquid in the recipe).

You could just brew the coffee hot with the same methodology and let it cool as well.

>>9016801
That sounds disgusting. How about making normal ice cream and a shot of espresso? Buy a shot of espresso or however many you need over ice (so it doesn't burn)at a coffee shop you like. Unless you have an espresso machine at home which probably isn't the case.
