Coffee

edited 2012-08-10 01:05:19 in Meatspace

It's always way too hot when I get it from cafes. I make it at home with a kettle and a filter, and it's always just right.


What kind of technology do they use to make it so thermite-hot in all the coffee places?

    The problem is that the coffee shop people don't necessarily know how you like your coffee. Tell them to make it not so hot, maybe they'll actually do it.

  • ^ Can they actually do that? I just let it sit for a half hour.

    They can, yes. Whether they actually will depends on which shop you go to.

  • I can only drink mine with plenty of cream and sugar.


    And perhaps a squirt of chocolate syrup too.

  • You can change. You can.

    I used to be like that.


    Then I discovered the joy of bitter coffee when I really needed to stay awake and there was no sugar.


    Since then, bitter coffee and Juan are best bros in the war against sleep. 

  • No rainbow star

    ^ Coffee puts me to sleep


     


    I will never know those joys unless it has a high enough caffeine content to overcome my ADHD and actually have the proper effect

    I got ADHD and it doesn't put me to sleep. Also, I prefer mine with milk and sugar but I can drink it bitter if the need arises.

  • I'm a damn twisted person
    Im a coffee heretic who likes iced coffee on all but the coldest days. Like having lost feeling in my fingertips from the chill cold.
  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!
    ^Same here man, iced coffee is the shit.
  • You can change. You can.

    I do enjoy cold coffee but throwing ice at it is heresy.


    cruxifiction for all of you

  • a little muffled

    I don't life coffee. :D

  • But you never had any to begin with.

    Execute the coffee lovers, lest the taint spreads even further.

  • He who laments and can't let go of the past is forever doomed to solitude.

    Die, tea lovers, die and repent!

  • Give us fire! Give us ruin! Give us our glory!

    >Likes coffee


    >Also likes tea


    come at me

  • I like my coffee with plenty of milk and sugar. Though lately I've been trying to reduce my intake.

  • Has friends besides tanks now

    Waltzy's chocolate syrup idea seems good.

  • No rainbow star

    ^^^ I like both of them as well


    With tea, I like both the regular kind and the herbal kind 8D

  • You can change. You can.

    How can you drink tea and not feel as if your soul was slowly dying

  • I'm a damn twisted person

    Be British? I mean they mandated that tea boilers be built into their tanks in WWII.

  • He who laments and can't let go of the past is forever doomed to solitude.

    British people don't have souls, they die every time someone says soccer!

  • I like tea, but I'm not British!

  • I'm a damn twisted person

    Imperial Remnant! 

  • C'mon, you know Asians drink tea too, right?

  • AND SOUTHERNERS wait let's not go there.



    I like both coffee and tea. Coffee for when I have to stay the frak awake and tea for when I don't necessarily care or want to relax.



    Our Keurig is broken though so it's been weeks since I got a really good cup of either.
  • I require coffee to wake me up and get me going.  Usually black, sometimes with sugar (which was how I drank it in the beginning, before I developed a taste for black coffee).  Also like espresso or Cafe Americanos.


    I'll also drink tea from time to time, but I wouldn't miss it if I were stranded without it on a desert island or someplace.  Not like I'd miss coffee.

  • Cream, no sugar.
