Do you folks like coffee?

[$harkToootth]

... it's chicory coffee (Cafe Du Monde, I think, which is nothing fancy but still tasty and quite gnarly) done in a cool little pour over type thing (think less V60/Chemex, more some weird Moka type hybrid) into sweetened condensed milk. It's like rocket fuel.

That's what I'm talking about! I love coffee that makes me feel like I'm on meth (or adderall ).

It's so good! Looks like this:

I was at reanimator in Philly today. Had a drip of GUATEMALA MARCOS GOMEZ. It was okay but pretty good . I wanted another cup but feared I would crap my pants.

NSFW: show

Tasting Notes: Ripe Strawberry, Juicy Orange, Black Tea

Huehuetenango is one of our favorite coffee regions not only in Guatemala, but worldwide. The high elevations combined with the climate and weather in the north of the country makes for perfect conditions to grow coffees that often exceed and reset the expectations on Guatemalan flavor profiles.

Marcos Gomez is a producer in the Santa Barbara Department in Huehue, one of the lowest income municipalities. Most of the famers here grow less than one hectare (2.4 acres). One reason for low production comes from the difficulty the farmers have just getting their picked coffee to processing from the mountains. Rarely do any of these farmers have access to vehicles, and the receiving stations are generally hours away. So more often than not, many farmers like Marcos Gomez would combine their coffee within the community, and take that bulk combination to market. Here, our friends at Red Fox Coffee Importers were able to pluck this individual lot out, and have it brought to us before it got lost in the shuffle.

EDIT: Going to brunch tomorrow and...gotta be honest...I'm looking forward most to the coffee

It's so good! Looks like this:

vietnamese and thai coffee is a reason of it's own to go to those restaurants

[$harkToootth]

Those things are not expensive. I may be buying all three of those (chicory coffee, condensed milk, that filter) this week....

[Blackened Soul]

Um, we'll need a demo video review.

All the supplies come Thursday. This has potential to become my new favorite thing.
This morning's coffee is Lucky Jack Nitro Cold Brew 'Double Black' Fortified With Organic Expresso. Not sure how potent it is because I had some before bed last night and slept great. I did dream I got paid $800 Million to be the next Batman though. I would really like this dream to come true. :BATMAN:

Any good coffee roasters anyone would recommend ordering from? There are some pretty good local roasters but I'm looking to expand my horizons.

No video, but I did it! This could be my new favorite beverage! Supper easy and no more expensive than my current caffeine habit. This stuff is dangerous though. It goes down quick. It is fairly viscous and gooey per the condensed milk...and oh so sweet. Feeling pretty good right now but I'm hoping this helps me transcend the void.
Fig i. Supplies - TOTAL $49.90. Shipping was free with PRIME. The most expensive item is the condensed milk (you get a pack of four 14 ounce cans for $16.90) but it goes a long way; you need very little per cup. 11 ounce filter was $10.95. EDIT I: What the fuck I'm just going to post my receipt Footnote*

Fig ii. Brewing - I used the Cafe Du Monde

Fig iii_a. Instructions I followed PT. I

Fig iii_b. Instructions I followed PT. II - I served hot. Will do iced next time.

*Footnote
Fig iv.

Nice! I just got my Cafe Du Monde in the mail yesterday. I made mine in a moka pot and poured it over some ice and sweetened condensed milk, and holy crap. It's extremely strong and also quite bitter. But when I made it in a coffee maker, it was more like a strong cup of "coffee coffee".

It's just plain condensed milk yeah, not sweetened stuff?

I so want to try this.

Start w/ Counter Culture. I like them a lot. Go from there.

Condensed milk is most often sweetened. Evaporated milk isn't.

The Vietnamese stuff is usually made with the sweetened condensed milk.

Sweetened...100%. No wonder the stuff tastes so great no matter how you brew it!

[goroth]

HHAHAHAHA!

I don't ever have sugar in my coffee, and I was just looking at that cup there, with like 50/50 coffee and condensed milk... and I thought there was no way that could be sweetened condensed milk...

But that stuff tastes awesome so I assume this can only be a good coffee experience.

I should make it on dulce de leche...

[$harkToootth]

I generally prefer coffee black, so tonight I plan to try the Chicory via electric drip (right?) with nothing in it.

Seriously thought, that condensed milk goes a long way. It's going to be like 2 months before I get through the one can.
