[DrJohnZoidberg]

So Starbucks makes the absolute worst tasting coffee and charges the most for it. Cool.

What's your favourite coffee shop chain?

I saw this posted on Reddit and thought it was better suited as a poll, was also truly quite surprised how many people said they liked Seattle the most, maybe my local ones are just not that great. For me it's Vida, but only because one of their stores has the best staff working there and the...

How does this taste? never tried it.

Basically it is moer koffie. Strong taste. I enjoy it.

 

[chuckles_the_cnt]

misleading, the title mentions coffee, the post is about places selling brown water

 

[FiestaST]

Speaking of moer koffie would be interesting to know how one would explain that to say an Aussie or Brit or Murican fella.

/sips on instant coffee and laughs in R 30-odd richer per cup




Don't get me wrong, I love a good coffee, but drinking ~6 cups per day isn't viable with the good stuff

It'll be ice cold by the time I remember it. My average day goes something like this:

08:02 boil kettle
08:27 boil kettle and put coffee in mug
08:45 boil kettle and put sugar in mug
08:59 boil kettle
09:13 boil kettle and take milk out fridge
09:31 boil kettle and make the bloody coffee FFS

Starbucks instant, sold in little tins in PnP and Checkers tastes like filter coffee. Very good IMO.

No wonder there's load shedding. Stop being distracted and boil the water once for the silly coffee.

Maybe R5-R10 a cup?

Maybe they will suspend loadshedding if you stop boiling the kettle so much.

Eastern European coffee, pour a quarter glass of ground coffee. Pour boiling water over that. It certainly wakes you up. The barista BS is for hipsters and artsy types.

Earl Grey Green Tea. Good stuff.

Good lord no wonder we have loadshedding.

Coffee prices are insane. It's nothing more than a ripoff.

There are a few coffee trucks/trailers in my area that I support and the most expensive one is R25.
