Is there any other way?

Truly the best method, of course.

This is easily my favorite response, and a clear representation of just loving coffee for coffee. From the extreme scientific end of it, to just needing that caffeine fix in the middle of a long day, to the intrigue of trying something new.

Thanks for the response and a walk through your day in caffeine.

I definitely enjoy cold brew, especially during summer, but it generally pretty muted in flavor compared to a pourover or French press. I usually make it when I get a bag of beans that I am a bit disappointed with, as a lot of the underlying tasting notes aren't as present in cold brew and it still allows me to enjoy the coffee.

I mean, heck, I want to get some whip cream canisters and nitrogen canisters to make my own nitro cold brew as another coffee project.

I definitely wanna buy some metal filters for v60. I love the full body you get with French press, and it's not really replicable elsewhere.

I'm running suuuuuper low on my Stagg filters and v60 filters, so probably going to be going back to my chemex for the next couple of weeks.

But Stagg has definitely been some fun.

Hey man, sometimes you just need that bittrr punch of caffeine. Ain't nothing wrong with that.

I just watched a video on the Orea from, I think it was Aramse. Interesting little brewer that I think will be my next unnecessary gear purchase.

Similar for me, but with Relay. I absolutely refuse to use the shitshow that is the official app. And honestly, I've been actively choosing to use Reddit less and less.

It certainly isn't short, but I believe he puts timestamps for different sections if you just wanna hop around to the relevant bits.

A light roasted Yirgacheffe is exactly what gave me my first "wow" moment with specialty coffee.

French Press was my entry into truly good coffee, and it's still one that I love to go back to.
