I rarely buy coffee.  I make much better coffee at home.  The girl and I are pretty serious about our coffee, so we bought one of these:




It's got a built-in Burr grinder. 



It makes good coffee...but coffee made with a French press is the better.
[close]

does this thing make a huge mess from time to time?

my wife and i have a similar one but if you get one little thing wrong on the setup, oh lord, what a mess you wake up to
[close]

The only problem I've had with it is...sometimes the bean chute(between the grinder and the filter) gets jammed.  It actually happens quite often and is a pain.  I've been grinding seperately so I don't have to deal with that shit.

That used to happen to me all the time so we ended up just buying a separate burr grinder. Much easier.

french presses are good.  I make my girl do kegals every day for 2 hours, so now I just put a coffee grinds and some warm water inside her and she does the damn thing.  Ironically, she is french.
ironically i just spit coffee out after reading this

I've been having the worst post-coffee shits lately so I switched to tea for the time being. Usually I get either local shit if I'm out and about or I'll go to Starbucks because my gay friend REFUSES to drink anything else and I have to drive him all the time because he's scared of driving. But he pays for the coffee so izallgood

anyone out in western massachusetts needs to visit the Elf Parlor in North Adams. this place has some of the best coffee i've ever put down, very strong, very rich, and cheap. The place is an apothecary, dude grinds up tea leaves right in front of you, makes yerba mate lattes. there is no going wrong in the elf parlor.

I may have to give this place a go through, do they make tea also?
[close]

 if you're in the NA area, its worth a go. Nate is always making the goods, man. he'll make the tea bags right on the bar. i was kinda hyped onthe yerba mate latte with whipped cream and sprinkles....

sunshine bagels are dope too, locally made along with a huge slab of local cream cheese.

if you're familiar with north adams, it's where the brick oven used to be. behind the town house at the college.


[close]
well im from northampton so not too familiar, but if you're in my neck of the woods check out Woodstar or Hay Market, shit's delicious
[close]

that's what up. north hampton is a groovy town. i head out west every month or two to enjoy the local life. was going to move back out but the snow kills it for me. i used to get hella depressed when i lived out there in the winter.

Hombres, let's grab a coffee sometime. NA is an hour & a half away from me but I enjoy a nice drive on a good day.

I work at Starbucks and I don't like coffee. Cool job though, and I think we have the best chai.

Leela's is better but Mason made me the gingerbread chai and it was great. I love all coffee. Except I can only drink black if it's really good coffee.

I have been making some really good cups of turkish coffee lately. Because of the fine grain you can cook it with an ordinary pan and it only takes a minute to make them. I have been experimenting to see what are the best proportions of coffee, sugar and water to either make an authentic Turkish coffee (with a whole lot of coffee grains in every sip) or having a more espresso-like type of drink. And thanks to immigration one of Istanbul hottest coffee brands is available here, so I'm good for a while.

drinking coffee is the thing i look forward to most each day.  my daily routine is to drink 2 espressos at home, grab a large bold coffee at starbucks on the way to work, midway through the day get a cup at the coffeeshop next door, and then maybe grab a cappuccino on the way home somewhere if i feel like splurging.  i was a starbucks devotee for years for no real reason other than convenience, but now i prefer just making espresso at home.  i kind of like the acidity of starbucks brewed shit though, i'm not satisfied unless my stomach feels a little bit gnarly while enjoying my overpriced beverage.  i hate coffee places that overwhelm you with their socially conscious agenda.  that probably sounds ignorant, but i carry enough guilt around with me as it is.  i also try to switch coffee places once the staff starts to remember my order, or makes small talk. 

holy fuck!! that must get expensive! espressos are like fucking 2 bucks each here maybe more...

Turkish coffee is really good, my buddy is half so he makes it sometimes. DELICIOUS!
