What are you, some kinda commie?i drink a tea
Fuck, that sounds real good right now. I love me a good solid French roast brewed with a French press, and a touch of cinnamon vanilla creamer.I like really strong dark blends, like French roasts or espresso blends. Then I add in Agave, a bit of creamer and BAM!!! Add a smoke and you have the breakfast of champions.
French press makes the BEST COFFEE ever! Just so,ething about taking your time with it makes the end result (coffee heaven nirvana) so much better then drip or keurig. I am actually drinking me a cuppa right now.Fuck, that sounds real good right now. I love me a good solid French roast brewed with a French press, and a touch of cinnamon vanilla creamer.
If I'm on the road, then there's this little kiosk near my house that has some gooooood coffee.
Ehhhhh. It makes a slightly less bitter brew with more flavor. But you kind of have to be a connesseuer of it to taste a difference.What's the opinion on cold brewed coffee?
Just offhand it strikes me as utter plebbery, and everyone I've seen who does it is a complete douchebag.
Is there actually any merit to doing this?

From what I've read it's supposed to be easier on the stomach for people with acid reflux problems. Though I have acid reflux issues and I still drink my coffee the normal way.But coffee should be somewhat bitter. That's the point of it. It sounds like coffee for people who hate coffee.
IMHO it's probably Starbucks iced coffee but without 10KL of cream in it and without a bitter flavor.But coffee should be somewhat bitter. That's the point of it. It sounds like coffee for people who hate coffee.
Like @Steve Mayers said below, it makes it easier for people with stomach issues to tolerate. There is also a richer flavor, and less oils. But for me the oils and bitterness are all part of the coffee "experience", and the only reason they really do the whole Cold Brewed is to make it seem more exclusive and makes us think more time spent making it = better coffee.... Which it doesn't.But coffee should be somewhat bitter. That's the point of it. It sounds like coffee for people who hate coffee.
