Thread: Coffee connoisseurs

I haven't seen any threads on coffee , I know in my travels around the globe, I appreciated good coffee. It seems to me after shaving in morning with my new hobby, I can enjoy my other hobby after a fulfilling shave.

Enjoy

Yep, coffee enthusiasts should be in the finer things in life threads. Tc

I LOVE dark roast coffee. My wife hates it so I have to make my own in a French press while hers is dribbling in the pot of our coffee maker.

I discovered that adding some ground cardamom to the coffe grounds really enhances the flavour (notice the Canadian spelling).

French press is the way to go, I actually roast my beans. Certain beans do not do well in a dark roast. This morning I drank a Indonesian Blue Moon, it was very nice.

Good!. You should try the mexican coffee beans (Veracruz)… And you should also try the Hario Coffee Syphon or their drip system… Any coffee gets really, really good in those devices!.

I'll sometimes add a cardamom pod or two to mine when using a French press, and that's really the only thing I ever add to coffee. A naturopath friend once recommended that to me as it is meant to counteract some of the negative effects of caffeine on the body. I tried it mostly to humour him, but found it tasted great. Pretty sure that's the only bit of his advice that ever stuck with me.

Also, dark roast from a bodum beats medium roast from a drip machine any day, so I'd call that a win-win!

French press are tried and proven, I have tried mecican beans and liked them alright. I love the Kenyon and Ethiopian beans. Dark roast and black.

Ten Thousand Villages sells fair trade coffees and their dark roast beans from Ethiopia make a really smooothcup of coffee. And, they are very reasonably priced.

There is something about the aroma of a freshly brewed pot of dark roast coffee first thing in the morning.

I’m semi-retired so I generally choose to shave later in the day after my one or two cups of java. So I get to enjoy my coffee with my dogs in the early morning and have an indulgent shave later in the day. Life is good : )
