  I started brewing mine again. It’s gonna take me more time to go to a drive through or gas station, while costing me money than it actually takes me to make a cup in the morning.

  Plus it’s guaranteed to be made how I like it.

    I love my Lavazza Gold blend. I grind and brew it as often as I can. However, I have days where I hit the fuckit button at 5am and have to buy coffee somewhere.

    Check out !espresso@infosec.pub if you want to really go deep into brewing your own

  Tastes better and is cheaper.

  Like unless your coffee drink is a children’s dessert beverage then I really have 0 idea why anyone goes.

  I gave up completely and just bought an espresso machine. Sure it’s gigantic and it and the grinder take up a fuck ton of counter space, but turns out making a latte the way I like it wasn’t that hard to learn.

    Jealous. I wish I could do that, but I neither have the space nor the money for a good espresso machine.

      I coveted mine (variations of the LUCCA A53) for about seven years before I could manage the funds. It still feels absurd but I can’t argue with the results.

    Thankfully there’s more than one Mom and Pop shop. So our sneakers (and Sienfelds) will eventually show up somewhere…

      No soup for you, only mutton chops. 😄

      Yeah, Seinfeld storylines and quotes are so engraved in my subconscious that for any situation, Seinfeld’s the first thing that comes to mind 😆

        If you haven’t seen it, watch Mel Brooks: The 99 Year Old Man! on HBO Max. Jerry Seinfeld is on it several times.
