Coffee thread, aka a thread for spoofers

Espresso isn’t optimal at the higher temperature, if you like it hotter then a splash from the kettle is your only man

You won’t get that consistency from a home machine, anybody who says otherwise is a (isn’t telling the truth)
The coffee shops have ten grand machines

It’s like teaching the remedial class here sometimes.

I had a lovely Peru espresso this morning in the new espresso cup I bought.

You want it to have treacle like thickness after you pour boiling water into it?

There’s a hape of home machines that have exactly the same components and do exactly the same job as the 10k coffee shop versions. Just expect to pay 600 plus for a lever machine or 1200 plus for a ‘prosumer’ machine like the rocket posted above.

Yes. And I want it served with biscotti by a big titted bitch called Bianca.

Make a wish Foundation will be getting a call

I get that, can even go without the thickness but a strong bean would even suffice. Even at any of the local roasters, they recommend a Colombian or equivalent and it’s underwhelming anymore.

As for yugechefe or any of that shite, may as well be drinking warmed bathwater for all the taste it has

You need to go into the market in Limerick of a saturday morning and get the Turkish sand coffee.

Had it, lovely stuff. Procession involved in making it enjoyable too

A family member got a role as a head barista in one of the top end coffee joints in Galway. It turns out they’re serving a good quality brand of bean, but from 2018. It makes me wonder, how much attention is paid to the dates on the bag in general in coffeeshops that don’t roast their own.

Any chance of a clue mate?

I wouldn’t out them. I have suspicions the practice may be rampant. Asking for the date on the bags in your local joint would be smart.

Can you imagine what a dick you’d look in the queue.

They might offer you a job.

I’m about to put in an order with espresso International…what else would you recommend apart from passalacqua mexico?

Nice! I don’t think it’s available on that particular website, but this stuff. A real treat of a bag of beans.

Do they ship to the republic, or is there a similar site that does?

They’re based in germany…so id say you’ll be grand
