Try a pinch of salt.

Switching over to black coffee last year was tough at first, but now it is sooooo much better. I actually kinda dislike it with sweeteners and creamers now.

Then try it with a big spoonful of salt.

Moving to the Pacific North West helped. Compared to the test of the US, we actually have good coffee haha

Yep. Even the drive through stripper coffee ain’t half bad.

I’m sorry to post basically an ad, but I get my coffee from an LA based roaster called YES PLZ and it’s incredible. I do live in the PNW tho lol

That’s cool, I’ll look them up. I like a few small roasters and the coffee is always amazing, but I am cheap and lazy, so usually I just get whatever from wherever (not sbux or Folger’s/maxwell tho haha I have standards). The biggest factors I’ve noticed at home are using freshly ground beans with a decent machine. Getting the fancy ninja machine and a mill grinder was a real game changer.

Dude, there’s good coffee everywhere.
And I blame where you are for the garbage that is Starbucks.

You won’t like Vietnamese coffee then. I’m open to it, but in very small amounts. It’s very sweet and they add lots of condensed milk. In the end, it doesn’t really resemble coffee that much.

It’s just hot Dairy Queen.
No idea why women are attracted to it.

Go sit at a Starbucks with your “just a plain, regular coffee, none of this Frappuccino half-caff double-whip soy latte crap” order. You’ll see plenty of men grabbing the same coffee milkshakes as women. They’re all attracted to it the same way they’re all attracted to milkshakes: for being a tasty drink. The only difference is some men are embarrassed to admit it’s fine to enjoy a Frappuccino. Or a sweet cocktail, for that mater. And yet, if you make a sweet, fruity, caffeine drink but put it in a scary container, suddenly it’s manly to drink Monster, right?
It’s really not that complicated.

Dude if you can try Colombian coffee, don’t need no gourmet just buy what you can find. I love sello Rojo, it’s less strong than pilão but has more taste.
As for American coffee, the things I tried when travelling didn’t taste like coffee at all. Everywhere I go that has this American style coffee capsules I have to put 2 expressos to even find the coffee smell, and that’s from a Brazilian that thinks pilão is strong.

Capsules?
You mean that stupid machine with the pods? Yea, fuck that, its not good. And its expensive per serving.
Even plain drip coffee is better than that crap if you buy good coffee.
