it really kind of is though as a rule the minimum quality of coffee is probably better in italy but you can get much better coffee in most semi developed cities in north america than you can in the average italian spot they favour using cheaper lower quality beans for one, which is less noticeable when roasted darker and used in espresso also loving lol at getting that mad about food

"Deeply painful." - when I didn't fill the basket in my drip machine with enough grounds so my morning brew is slightly too weak for my taste

The machine is reloaded with beans and refuelled with H2O. In a mere 7 hours I will have delicious bean juice. Good night coffee thread, tomorrow is another highly caffeinated day

Does anyone here fiddle with their water? The water where I live is clean to the point its practically reverse-osmosis , so I've been adding some baking soda and epsom salts back in (0.75g and 0.5g to 4L respectively) and I think it helps a bit with my pour over espresso blend in a chemex. I might also be full of my own farts.

Italians put sugar in their espresso and I have 0 respect for them, they can yell as much as they want but it's not me who cannot make a coffee that does not require sugar in it
