don't even get me started on the muffins, sistah!

Ok Luke - I'll engage

The fundamental flaw, for me, on your theories about coffee is that you are positing that there is a singular, scientific procedure to producing the very best coffee.

The problem with that theory is you're applying a quantitive [science of making coffee] to a qualititive/subjective [dictates of personal taste]

Just because you think a process or a roaster makes the perfect coffee doesn't make that assumption correct, and inflexibility inhibits discovery

Now if you rock up and say 'dude, I've found this awesome roaster and I've been having a crack at it and try it at this grind, this water temp' then it's game on for me, happy to try something new.

If your recommendations are based on a dismissal of other methods or opinions then I'll do what I'd do with any other fundamentalist, and ignore it.

I'm sure you've got some great insights and opinions - but share, don't preach, be willing to be proved wrong

SOLD. bag of frazzles was an acceptable substitute for pork scratchings

Oh if it's arse kissing you want then try Grindr

It kind of depends on how you define ‘appreciation’

I don’t particularly relate to the ‘hallowed bean’ school of thought, that you must follow a process that allows you to identify all the flavour profiles. Those flavour profiles are affected by trends and tastes. I think coffee appreciation is much wider than this and operates outside just a 'flavour wheel’ parameter.

Sometimes I appreciate a dark as sin ristretto, sometimes I appreciate a cold water process, sometimes I appreciate a spot on flat white.

The other thing I don’t particularly agree with is the school of thought that home espresso machines can’t deliver - I’d love it to be the case that every coffee shop I walked to served me an espresso or flat white like I get at Notes but I’d say that even in the indie coffee shops with trained baristas I’m getting a decent coffee about 60% of the time.

At home I’ve got time to temp surf, weigh every shot, concentrate on stretching the milk etc. However well trained the baristas are pressures of volume, time and sometimes pure ‘can’t be arsed’ means that a good deal of the time I can make a better coffee at home than I will get in a coffee shop

loving the scissors/utensil holder - paints not bad too

Hmmmm choices eh?

Do I listen to and go to advice for beans, processes and machines to the World Barista Championships Top espresso roaster who contributes to this thread [hiya Steve] or the roaster at Workshop coffee [hiya Pepe] or do I take advice from a pretentious, patronising ozzie twat…

let me have a maple syrup mocha while I think about that one

to the cock nugget on the stealth black fixed with deep section back wheel and helmet jauntily dangling from his backpack who decided to try out his 'FixieSkiddaz 4 Dummiez' manoueveres on York Road last night

Don't.

your lame ass attempt to tailwhip on the inside of the car turning left and then having to correct it to go on the outside was piss poor and very nearly took me out.

If I hadn't been wearing club kit your rear wheel would now be embossed with the pattern from the bottom of my size 11 Sidis

Oh crap… great pic that Ved, I swapped that cap with Dwayne for a 531 T - A proper gentleman in both senses of the word and super generous with his time and immense knowledge

Sloes in London are more than ready for picking, not a bad crop this year - Got a cheeky little sloe hotspot near New Malden if anyone wants deets

What you're looking for is 'copper slip' - it's damn effective but an absolute arse to get rid off iff you get it on clothes, hands etc
