For years i just drank instant. Pre ground is the bottom of the barrel. For the truck stop coffee taste, grind your own beans. Blooming IS important (pre wet it). I prefer pour over. NEVER even consider a worthless piss warm drip coffee maker. 200 degrees is required ! The few that reach that are $300 and up junk. Huge ripoff industry. ALL over priced brands ignore their warranty ! edit some use drip coffee makers as a pour over, some claim pouring in near boiling water works. Never tried it. I refuse to help support that rip off industry.
Starbucks is shit. I won’t drink their coffee even for free. What American food chains have done is made mediocre versions of other cultures, including coffee culture
An old school percolator from the 60's makes the best cup of coffee. The one I have came from my Grandpa and has probably made 4,614,488 pots of coffee in it's lifetime. Straight goodness.
Coffee is responsible for calculus and understanding gravity.
Without discussion in coffee establishments, who knows how much longer "enlightenment" would have taken.
Ashame it has gone in a totally different direction. Where the drug has exceeded its usefulness and become a form of worship, just like pot today.
