Have you been Irishing your morning coffee today, or would you care to elaborate what on earth you meanOriginally posted by dsc View PostI always say world would be better if people skipped the milk and just had black espresso / brewed coffee (none of the tulipe above though), most delays and additional maintenance is due to milk.

Haven't got time to draw diagrams so here is a simple sentence.
If you order straight black coffee the Barrista (poorly paid server with a fancy name) just pours it and that is quicker. If you add other things it takes longer.Comment

And that would substantially make the world better? But I think you may be confusing a coffeeshop with an American diner. In one they make the coffee fresh, in the other it sits in a big jug stewing for hours. They don't make the black coffee by pouring it, everything comes from making espresso which is where the bulk of the time goes, not stirring in some milk.Originally posted by vetran View Post

For the fluffy ones the wife drinks its a couple of minutes waiting. For a black Americano expresso made fresh it is about 40-50 seconds.

I rarely buy a coffee any more due to almost entirely remote working and a nice bean-to-cup machine at home, but I've always really disliked Starbucks coffee, it just tastes like someone rinsed out an ashtray, while Costa and Pret are acceptably nice. Of course this is just to my own tastes - I drink my coffee black and I suppose if you add milk etc it can remove those bitter edges and round it off. But it's a nice bonus to know that I'm also getting a bigger caffeine hit for my buck from my preferred coffee shops

I'm sure that additional 70s is really valuable. You can use it to write 3 posts on CUK.Originally posted by vetran View Post

That is exactly how I feel and I always thought it was just me... it puts me in mind of urinals and ashtrays. I've never understood why some people genuinely prefer it TBH.Originally posted by Snooky View PostI rarely buy a coffee any more due to almost entirely remote working and a nice bean-to-cup machine at home, but I've always really disliked Starbucks coffee, it just tastes like someone rinsed out an ashtray
I have always found Costa to make me feel weird though I prefer the taste - I put it down to an Americano in a cup the size of a soup bowl but this news story makes me think I've figured out why. A lot of caffeine makes me feel quite sick.
