    If you drink coffee that you bought ready brewed, or that is available in a supermarket, you are inferior. The same is true if you drink wine that you were too lazy to make by yourself.

    I stomp on my own wine grapes.

    I must disagree with the premise of home made wine being superior to purchased wine.
    I love a good Red.
    1961 was a great year (vintage). My father laid down quite a few cases. ( I was far too young to have made my own in that year) we drank some at our daughter’s chasunah this summer.

    As for coffee, I do buy already brewed outside the house. In the house we roast and grind our own beans. Since I drink about 8 cups a day it’s worth the effort for great coffee

    Whoa CTLAWYER, 8 cups of coffee a day?

    About how many cups of plain water (no coffee added) do you drink daily?

    You are just demonstrating your inferiority. Bet you didn’t even build your own brewing system.

    Lightbrite…………..
    I am awake (up dressed, out of bed) 20 hours a day.
    I drink about 8 cups of coffee each day
    I drink about one gallon of spring water each day as well
    6 ounces juice with breakfast
    maybe 8 ounces of milk in any given week
    Ice Tea in the summer
    Hot tea only for a cold or sore throat

    But do you eat the used coffee grounds after drinking the coffee? That’s a sign of a superior coffee drinker.

    @Reb Yidd23
    Was the brewing system comment directed at me?

    If so, most of the time I use a French Press, otherwise a stove top percolator.
    I do not care for most drip brew systems……………………………..
    No reason to reinvent the wheel…I’m a Lawyer not an engineer

    For large crowds, we use 60 cup Farberware samovar style urns.

    DovidBT, coffee eating is not the same as coffee drinking! As the best of both, I hereby pronounce you amateur.

    If you don’t grow your own coffee beans, you’re not a serious coffee drinker.

    If you don’t build your own system, it’s not a real homebrew.

    Pour over has replaced French Press as the snob method of choice. Did you make sure to buy single origin beans?

    CT; How many of the 20 hours are spent commenting in the YWN coffee room?
    By the way, you are over simulating your adrenal glands with all that caffeine. I’ve read that heavy caffeine consumption has deleterious long term effects on the adrenals.
    What about the jitters? How do you stay calm pumped with all that caffeine?

    Ha ! You are all inferior.
    I bet none of you own their own Columbia town complete with native workers to grow and harvest real Columbia beans.
    Anything short of that is just a cheap wannabe
    BTW CT lawyer, if you hire a couple good slaves to patchke with all your coffee apparatus, you can probably pack away an extra two three hours a day in bed without missing anything in your daily schedule.

    Klugeryid, single origin is sooo wannabe. Real experts know the value of a good blend, so one town is not nearly enough. BTW, it’s technically still a homebrew if your slaves help build the brewing system, but purists will always build it by themselves. And there’s nothing wrong with flying to other peoples’ coffee producing villages and trading for some of their beans.

    I spend less than 30 minutes per day on the CR
    Usually while on placed on hold during a telephone call
    This is actually the case as I type. It’s 6:21 AM here in CT I’m on hold with a client’s bank in Europe, where they are seeking confirmation of some transactions.

    B”H I’m quite healthy. Coffee has a calming effect on me, not a stimulant. I have a mug before bed each night to relax me and I sleep a deep and comfortable sleep.
    My parents also slept only 4 hours per night and neither one drank coffee

    So Buy multiple villages if you must
    But it’s gotta all start on your land. Otherwise you might as well drink ”great value ” instant

    If you don’t drink coffee or wine then you get to avoid checking the box on the job application that asks if you’ve signed up to enlist in the military because it doesn’t apply to women.

    Did you mean to imply that women are too weak to enjoy coffee or wine, or that any man who does not drink coffee or wine must actually be a woman because no man would be so weak?

    Do you remember those old coffee advertisements showing a man leading a donkey carrying 100-lb sacks of freshly harvested coffee beans? Did you ever see a woman doing that?

    No, but I’ve never known a man who would choose a donkey over a mule.

    I think Lightbrite is experimenting with absurdism (see “Science Facts You Read Somewhere”).

    #1390752

    Adding the word “all” to the title would change the meaning interestingly.

    I heard a talk from a guy in Bali explaining the value of fresh (24hr) roasted beans. I started as a coffee barbarian, then learned with someone who mixed beans and brewed in grind,/drip setup, and ultimately went back to supermarket barbarity. Resettling in EY was a further step down in the quality of freeze dried, and the Elite Names is plain junk ever for me. Boiled Turkish (botz) is a special treat.
