Grounds in my coffee...

[DreamThrall]

Without fail, every time I try to make coffee I end up with a mouthful of grounds on the last cup. I have a little mini coffeemaker which does 5 "cups" (which comes out to about 2 REAL cups). I can't figure out if this is because of

-my cheap PoS coffeemaker
-the fact that the my "chocolate rasberry something" coffee's chocolate stuff clogs up the filter and makes it overflow
-the filter i'm using doesn't let enough water through fast enough
-my embarassing lack of ability to make good coffee

maybe one of you coffee experts (stern?) could pipe in with some tips.

use a bigger gound of coffee ..instead of fine grind use ...non fine grind

oh and invest in another coffee maker ..be surprised how much difference a good one makes

But instant lager is good.

or get someone else to make it for you

I bought a Gaggia Cubika, £100 from their website (reconditioned). No grounds whatsoever. Steams milk, makes hot water for a Pot Noodle, does everything tbh.

Highly recommended.

Instant larger is piss. Instant (bottled) beer (bitter, yes theres a difference) is good. Draughts better mind you.

The only way to drink a cup of coffee is to drink it black. Everything else is pussy.

 

[Angry Lawyer]

...You don't like drinking pussy?

Is that why they call it the hot coffee mod?

 

[mindless_moder]

whats wrong with instant?

 

[Parrot of doom]

Instant is to real coffee as Doom3 is to HL2.

Real coffee has better physics than instant?

 

[Azner]

What physics? EWxp-lain then... we would like to know

 

[DreamThrall]

i work from home, so i can't mooch from someone else ... and if my wife makes it, she'll still be using the same coffeemaker and such i am ... and i'll be damned if i'm gonna sped $4 every morning on starbucks... i'd rather get a couple energy drinks.

 

[CptStern]

get something like this

carafe coffee maker ..no burner (coffee tastes like crap after it's been siting on the burner) ..also use good filters(non bleached) + good coffee ..I recommend jamaican blue, expensive but probably one of the world's best

 

[Raziaar]

Go to star bucks and drink there.

Yeah, and spend 80 bucks a week on the stuff.

kofyeh sucks...

 

[CookieCuttah]

Surrender to the USSR, free coffee maker when you join!

 

[Greatgat]

I had to stop drinking coffee unfortunately. It started to give me horrible stomach aches. I guess my nightly diet of booze won.
