Coffee. How do you take yours?

[ReganAndCarter]

What's a flavour profile?

It's like price point when normal people just to say 'price' or 'cost'.

 

[ReganAndCarter]

But some women like it deeper..

Dark and strong as well............................................. apparently.

 

[ReganAndCarter]

I've got a Woolworths coffee filter machine somewhere in the loft that I've never used. May dig it out soon and fire it up.

Where do we stand on perculators?

Some younger viewers may need to Google this.

Apparently, once you’ve had black, you don’t go back.

They are supposed to make the worst coffee. I remember we had one as a kid and the first time I tasted cafetiere coffee, the difference was huge.

You haven’t mentioned it, are you a fan of it ?

When I was a kid, I thought percolator coffee was great, because it was the only 'real' coffee I knew. When we had that cafetiere for the first time at a hotel, the difference was huge, and on the first couple of days I didn't really like it. But then I came to realise that it was actually much nicer. I love Moka pot and I love cafetiere. Relatives still use percolators at Christmas etc. and I quite like it still. It's not awful. It's just very different. It's because the brewed coffee keeps getting recirculated through the grounds over and over at a high temperature.

Its most probably frozen up there. Unless you wrapped it in Woollys

I bought some Starbucks Moka coffee off North Weald market.

Its was horrible. I think it was a copy.

I seem to remember that cocoa was popular, rather than coffee, as the number two hot drink when I were a lad. Coffee was always instant, and there certainly wasn't a culture around it, as now.

I went to a cafe and ordered coffee. He said instant
I sad.
"YES I WANT IT NOW"

We have always drunk a lot more tea than coffee. We weren't big on cocoa or hot chocolate. We often had Horlicks at night.

Coffee was usually instant. But we had a percolator as well. Then later an automatic filter machine.

I have never been into the culture side of it. For decades, I just made simple coffee in either a Moka pot or a cafetiere. But it is almost an obsession for some.

Mcd’s flat white is my go to if I have a coffee while I’m at work. I find their standard coffee a bit strong, and gives me an upset stomach.

It’s almost lunchtime. Bacon and sausage with a tea I think

After running out of my usual coffee yesterday, I got this emergency packet out of the cupboard.
It has no taste, all I can taste is what little semi-skimmed I put in. I wouldn't recommend this to anybody.

Why has it rotated 90°?
