Coffee Compass (lemmy.world)

Don’t know how many people have run across this or something like it before. This visual helped me early on and I still think about it if I have a really bad brew.

edit: uploaded higher res image from a non-problematic source.

I wish it had higher resolution

Is this due to Lemmy recompressing it?

I want to believe OP wouldn’t do this to us…

I promise I did not do this on purpose. I like potatoes but not potato quality.

Uploaded via memmy which maybe did some jpeg compression. Still getting used to the new world. Need to figure out a better image upload/hosting pattern

Here's a few I've saved over time, all variations on the same thing. Unfortunately I haven't saved the sources alongside them: apologies to the creator as I know at least one of them was made by someone on Reddit

Very nice! I’ve used this interactive one from Barista Hustle a few times.

Do you have this at a higher resolution? It's better than the other graphics to the same effect but so small I can barely read it.

[–] wellington 2 points 2 years ago

Fixed, similar graphic from different source with higher res uploaded

It's conceptually useful but I have some qualms about promoting Barista Hustle

Noted, had no idea

Thank you! I stumbled on this once and couldn’t find it again.

How can someone standardise "sour" or "bitter" or etc? Every person has their own perception of tastes.

I don't mean to be salty (pun intended), but it still confused me...

a non-problematic source.

Plagiarism seems pretty problematic to me, but then, so does racism so 🤷‍♂️

[–] wellington 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Where’s the plagiarism here?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago

The original image was (presumably) Barista Hustle's coffee compass. The 'non-problematic' replacement is just a straight copy of it, word for word and almost identical in design. Not a big deal but ehhhh
