I think it’s because the aroma of coffee is so important to its flavor.
My wife prefers flavored coffees and I shy away from them.
I thought I’d gotten them mixed or there was residue in my coffee maker because my coffee kept tasting sweet and I don’t add sugar or use sweeteners at all.
Across the room was a candle in a jar, lid off, unlit, hazelnut coffee scented.
ACROSS THE ROOM it was enough to make me think my coffee was actually sweet. So yeah, it’s all about the smell.
Someone else on here - might’ve been you - turned me on to them and now I’ve been alternating between Pinon and Chocolate Pinon. So tasty!
I was playing on a MUD (early mmorpg thing by telnet) in 1994 and the creator wanted some of the core players to make characters as part of the plot. The game never went anywhere after that (it was called Kaspelheim) but the character I made was Pronell Mordini, perrin (otterlike humanoids) trademaster.
I just kept using the name online since then. It’s never taken. But someone else did get pronell@gmail.com.
Rio Grande Roasters Chocolate Pinon beans ground in my Shardor electric burr grinder. (I assume this is a shit brand as I never see it listed in the best grinder breakdowns.)
I grind at the 8 cups setting and use the Aeropress Reverse Hoffman method. As this is a lighter roast I let it steep longer than I’ve been used to, about three minutes. Water is microwaved to barely boiling, haven’t bothered to take a temp.
Invert and press over ice, then add half and half to taste.
Its my slow release Americano.
I don’t know how many grams of coffee I use. I aim to make coffee concentrate equal to 4 shots of espresso roughly using the Reverse Hoffman Method.
Steep time depends on beans. Espresso roast 1.5 minutes, longer when it’s a light roast. Not using a timer, mostly watching for the bloom and adding more water when it’s done.
I extract right onto ice and add a moderate amount half and half to taste. I call it a slow release Americano.
I don’t keep track of how much water or its temperature really. Just a cup microwaved until barely boiling and usually don’t use it all. Similarly I don’t spritz the beans with water, just haven’t bothered yet.
I was one of 'em to be honest. And it’s not a “Stop that shit” thing but be more aware of who you are promoting and why.
I’ll also admit that I actually bought a product AFTER seeing it posted to r/HailCorporate.
That’s one way you can tell it’s true: showing a product exists advertises it.
The Spoiler probably offset the HailCorporate crowd.
Sorry they aren’t as good. Probably changed the recipe a few dozen times.
Or ‘I can’t shit’ posters.
So I assume this attack was reported by the perpetrators, as spam on Twitter, Facebook, and Reddit are far far worse problems.
Well my first computer was an Apple IIe, so yes. And I still prefer command line interfaces, even if they’re in a GUI environment.
But I suppose that was a rhetorical question…
I’ve heard of hunt-and-peck typers but this is a little on the nose.
