I read a while ago that drinking coffee had similar effects on your brain as other (stronger) drugs like heroin.
The mans argument was that, by drinking coffee, one moves into a state of alertness which wears your body off given long term consumption. In other words, once you get off this state you become progressively "weaker" if that's the correct word.
I don't know what that man was talking about, so I want Veeky Forums opinions on coffee, or if you guy shave any studies to share or recommendations they are welcome too.
To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand coffee.

Do you have any material for me?

>says whites are inferiors while trashing communist >even though it was a white man who invented communism and his own picture of a communist is some white devil.
So which one is it huh? Are whites superior? Or are whites so retarded they literally invented communism?

You can believe whatever you want about my identity. But I will admit I am a strong man of Hispanic descent.
Now, answer my question. If whites are superior then how come it was whites who invented communism?

Get out of my thread.

Ah, I see. An inconvenient question huh? You have found another contradiction in your white supremacy I see. What will you do?
You can't have it both ways. Whites can't be both superior and so inferior they literally invented communism. Pick one, retard.

Shitskins are naturally impaired and have low IQ, stop trying to argue with me, child.
Robert Gomez
Please show me the research for that. I can easily show you proof that whites invented communism, which proves your IQ is basically subhuman. Probably 60.

Alright faggots, time to up your coffee game.
What you'll need: - Freshly roasted coffee beans from a reputable roaster (I like washed Ethiopian and Colombian). Try out Onyx Coffee lab or Counter Culture and branch out from there. Intelligensia is also a popular roaster. Local roasters are the best option if you don't want to order online.
-A decent burr grinder. A cheap one is the Hario Skerton but it's a hand grinder so you might hate it. Barazta encore is the typical entry level electrical grinder.
- Something to brew in with filters. French press is common and suitable for coffee with more body, aeropress is also popular and easiest to use ,pour overs like Chemex and Kalita waves produce lighter but more complex coffee. DONT USE A MR COFFEE. Seriously, cheap coffee makers like mr coffees ruin the taste and is the main reason people complain that their coffee tastes like ass.
-Optional, a goose neck kettle. This is just for quality of life and not needed. If you want one that is electric because you don't have a stove top or something, try out the Bonavita variable temp kettle. Otherwise, just use any teapot to heat up your water.
-Optional but highly recommended, an electric scale accurate to 1 or 2 decimal places. This will allow you to get proper ratios for your coffee. This makes a huge difference and also lets you tweak the flavor to your liking.
General tips for pourovers, for every 1 gram of coffee use 15-17 grams of water. Brew time should be around 3-4 minutes depending on how much coffee you are making.
Family has one of those coffee maker machine things. Do you think these techniques you have described will improve my coffee game?
Is this, dare I say, the high IQ way of making coffee?
Charles Williams
>coffee maker machine things
Depends, is this a typical coffee maker or are we talking an espresso maker? If it's the latter than that's a whole different game. If you don't want to buy a new brewer, I would at least invest into good beans and a grinder. Also, clean the machine often. You have no idea how common mold is for typical machine brewers.
Evan Lee
Its not one of those espresso ones.
I think its a hamilton beach one, not too fancy, just a simple one.
But that thing they do with the french press in those videos, seems like a better way of making coffee. Looks tastier.
Blake Martin
Lol.... Its fun to see how shitskins lose it when confronted with their genetic deficiencies.

I don't suppose if they explore the nature of the coffee served? Sugars, milk; spices, etc?

If you drank coffee all the time, you wouldn't become constipated in the first place.

Bentley Perry
I buy cheap-ass Lavazza ground coffee and put it in a french press, and my coffee is delicious. You're wasting your time, your money, and your life by putting so much effort into making coffee.
Andrew Allen
lmao I see you I sold some of that shit today at work
Benjamin Torres
Deal with it nerd, coffee is much of a muchness. Preground is fine, you don't need a degree in making coffee to make great coffee, just a brain and an understanding of proportions (my mom always puts far too much ground coffee in and makes disgusting bitter grainy undrinkable shit, then complains that "coffee is bitter!")
Lucas Cooper
It's okay to be fine with mediocrity but don't fake gloat about it pleb
Thomas Bennett
>t.barista
I'm not falling for your lies, you don't need to pay some philosophy grad working in a coffee shop $5 a cup to get great coffee. Ground coffee + french press + hot water is literally all you need, I'm living proof.
Benjamin Murphy
If you think that garbage is 'great' then you'd simply be laughed out of any discussion with serious coffee drinkers.
Parker Stewart
>serious coffee drinkers
I drink eight to twelve gallons of coffee PER HOUR, I don't need any hipster circlejerk to "discuss my appreciation for coffee", I LIVE my appreciation for coffee.
Pic related: It's you and literally all your friends.
Carter Robinson
>Ground coffee + french press + hot water is literally all you need, I'm living proof.
It's okay to be wrong, user, all I wanted was for you to have better coffee. Also, nice projecting.
Jose Reyes
>I drink eight to twelve gallons of coffee PER HOUR
You know why you drink so much? Because your ratio of coffee to water is almost all water.
Julian Martinez
>can't handle drinking strong coffee constantly
Hahaha, enjoy ur no heart attacks and no constant jittery anxiety!
I know what you wanted, Mr. Barista. You're not getting MY $5.

A white man didn't invent communism, he doesn't count as white.
Isaac Watson
>If you don't want to buy a new brewer, I would at least invest into good beans and a grinder I disagree with this. In my experience, the brewing method has a higher influence on the output. Shitty coffee made with a "superior" method will taste better than good coffee made in a standard drip machine.
I'd recommend getting a cheap french press and trying that first. If you find that it tastes much better than your drip machine, upgrade your beans. You can probably find one somewhere for less than $20. Plus, making cold brew in a french press is super easy, which is nice.
Alexander Taylor

How did this thread turn into a thread about /pol/?

Yes, because you're more likely to die violently when your hands/brains are twitching out around heavy machinery

It always does because /pol/ comes here in an attempt to feel smart by stirring up the highschool students and college freshman

You're just trying to point fingers based off of one person in history to help you cope with your inferiority complex, kill yourself, no complex that way.
