    but the reason the trends circle round so much is that you can make a good cup with almost any method, sometimes with a different twist on the flavour, so any method that picks up momentum is totally valid

    percolators are not very good generally but i'm sure someone will design a premium percolator that drips the water all over instead of the middle or whatever

    makes good coffee, but is technically not a percolator even though it's a similar process.

    Coffee is okay, but tea is king.

    I mean, really, the Cat-servatives have spent many years gerrymandering the districts and winning smaller battles at the local level quietly, while putting forth traditionally Dog-positive racially and gender diverse candidates to win those seats. They took it right out of the Dog playbook.

    What's funny is I'm the furthest from a coffee snob. My all time favorite coffee is McDonalds or Foldgers classic roast. I don't like most starbucks because it's too bitter.

    But I can NOT do instant coffee. Something about it just tastes off to me.

    Starbucks is actually pretty bleh coffee. Overroasted and tends to taste burnt.

    For chains I do Peet's. Pretty tasty for a chain. Also next to Trader Joe's so I get coffee then go pick up food and drive home. There are multiple other places better though. I remember one in Seattle I went to at PAX like in '10 that I just had an espresso shot and it was this amazing rich almost chocolatey flavor.

    I detest Starbucks. I like Dunkin Donuts coffee almost exclusively.

    @Organichu , want some legit pretentious self-deluding white people bullshit?

    this video for making pour over with the kalita wave

    she's camping

    but still brings her god damn scale and digital timer to make JUST THE PERFECT CUP TO START MY DAY

    https://www.stumptowncoffee.com/brew-guides/kalita-wave

    I think I'd mock the kettle for camping more than the scale. That stupid thing has a long thin curvy spout and has to be murder to pack safely.

    TBF I've got this for my bug out bag as part of my main mess kit

    https://www.rei.com/product/768513/gsi-outdoors-halulite-tea-kettle

    iu551tyutnev.jpg

    It fits inside a pot with a lid and a hanger perfectly, and inside the kettle is my cups and a penny alcohol stove, utensils, seasonings, scrubber, etc.

    So all you see in my pack is a quart cook pot, and inside that is a bunch of other shit.

    i just have a TI cup (with lid) and TI spork and a tiny isopro burner

    i have a couple of alcohol tablet stoves that i've made out of heavy weight aluminum cans but i have found i don't mind the extra weight of carrying a fuel cannister around with me

    the only problem with my setup is that i have to be careful with my cup as it doesn't have a long handle and it gets fuck off hot real quick

    i think i'm going to find a small pot grabber clip thingy to keep with it

    I got the 750ml Ti with lid and hanger and the smaller cup for christmas so those are nested together in my day pack.

    For the grabber clip I usually just use two sticks but that's proven perilous before so.....

    same

    i have a floppy silicone bowl that i have used too as an improvised oven mitt but that means i can't have a drink and boil water at the same time which is a bummer

    this one is $3 and looks like it would work fine. I'd probably just hang it off my pack somewhere.

    it's closer to a vaccum pot, but still its own thing

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
    bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

    Man, video dating services. That was a Thing that existed. Along with phone matchmaker services.
