I see coffee much the same way as I see alcoholic drinks; the whole point is to get a drug (caffeine, or ethanol) into your system, where it can works its wonders.
I think the only thing that really matters with coffee is, how strong is it? And the way to make it properly strong (to get a proper extraction of the caffeine from the beans), is to quickly extract it from the bean under high temperature - that means, boiling the water at, or above (using pressure - remember, water boils at 100 degrees at Earth's normal air pressure; if you increase the pressure you increase the boiling point), 100 degrees Celsius, and then forcing that boiling water/steam through the beans as rapidly as possible. |

And with experience your palate comes to recognize that pungent flavor as "good". Unless you want to drop a couple grand on a good espresso pump, these little puppies are the best way to get maximum extraction. Anything else is just pissing into the midwestern wind, and I don't want to hear anymore about it. I'm traveling. I haven't had my coffee yet this morning. I'm in a hotel. I don't have my pot. I don't have a stove to put it on even if I did have it, so don't fuck with me, Donnie. Mkay? |

In the cup this morning is Starbucks Caffè Verona Coffee.
From their website: Quote:
It's good. Does have a bit of sweetness to it. Great aroma.
