It’s actually not bad, you’re basically replacing the creamer. Especially if you’re doing keto or have other dietary restrictions. Coconut or MCT oil can work as a non-dairy replacement and is a main ingredient in non-dairy creamers already.
Good coffee is important, and also only really works if you already like it black or light cream & sugar.
Anyone curious, try adding a pinch of salt to your regular coffee
Found the keto
If you need to add a pinch of salt, get better coffee
Eh, most people burn their coffee or get shitty coffee. Salt helps enhance the coffee profile and decrease the bitterness that comes out when coffee is over brewed.
The number of people who don’t know how to properly make coffee drives me nuts.
I think it’s more of a tip for people who don’t have a choice. Coffee isn’t exclusively consumed for the taste.
I don’t think they said they need to
Why not just drink it black then? To be fair, creamer isn’t a thing where I’m from.
Many people learn to drink coffee, because it is a social thing to drink. Often when you get guests over, the first thing you offer is a cup of coffee. The bitterness of coffee is an acquired taste though. Not everyone likes it, so they add sweeteners and creamers to hide it.
I used to do that as well, but it got increasingly annoying when places ran out of sugar or milk. So I just decided to learn to drink black coffee.
Now I’m a snob about my coffee and my beans.
I will never get countries who use creamer. They’re choosing the objectively worst way to have coffee
Maybe they like it that way
try adding a pinch of salt to your regular coffee
This literally takes away one of coffee’s biggest flavor enhancers which is its slightly bitter taste. If you do this, you might as well be drinking fucking tea.
I don’t like tea because its bitter
Aren’t you supposed to use ghee not just regular butter. My friend gave me some ghee for coffee and I tried it, it wasn’t bad but I didn’t want to have a heart attack so I didn’t use the rest. Now I use ghee for cooking to try it out and every time I smell it I want coffee or popcorn
I remember the “bulletproof coffee” trend being grass fed butter, but I could be wrong. Either way I doubt there’s any health benefits other than it not being a starbucks milkshake.
also helps raising LDL cholesterol👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I do add soy sauce to my coffee. Why don’t people do this? It’s 2025 already. They must be missing out on an awesome experience.
I recently read an article about soy sauce being the secret ingredient for a lot of top chefs. They put it in everything.
Also fish or oyster sauce, sometimes miso. Tomato paste is another.
All of the above add unami, or “savory” flavor and are generally not perceived outside of that flavor in most dishes.
You haven’t lived until you’ve had a soy sauce mimosa.
If you’re chasing that flavor try some darker roasts instead of adding salt.
Yes I had that taste. Felt like I don’t need soy bean for that soy sauce taste.
People are not getting vaccinated because of one simple reason, they are fucking idiots!
I think the part where the coffee is ice cold and doesn’t melt butter is probably where the problems started, butter neither made it better or worse at that point
Tried this. It tasted god-awful. I swear by orange juice in my coffee, which also tastes god-awful but in a way that I like
I don’t know if you are joking but fresh orange juice, strong cold brew, and fizzy water is really good. I thought it would be awful but it’s delicious.
Ooh, I will have to try that.
Amateur move, I just throw my whole breakfast in my coffee.
I got this pic of you in my head and giggled.
I wish I could show you the weird shit ive seen my dad try with his coffee, but I think overall the best thing Ive seen is scrambled eggs in black coffee. Is it insane? Yes. Did it taste like shit? Also yes.
Chocomel here
Ah yes the keto diet.
I have tried this out because I got a bit obsessed with learning how to make every coffee drink during the pandemic. The way I did it was a double shot of espresso, a decently sized pat of good quality unsalted butter, and a little bit of hot water. The reasoning was that the butter would accentuate the naturally occurring oils of the espresso and lead to a richer crema on the resulting americano which was true. I thought it was actually pretty good that way, but I also love coffee in any form. It also wasn’t something I’d go out of my way to drink again. I also imagine this would do some bad things to your intestines if you drank this every day. If you want a delicious buttery coffee, a good quality whole fat milk is a much better option. As for health claims, I think it’s kind of insane that anyone says drinking literal butter could possibly be good for you, and even more insane that people believe it. It feels like an over-reaction to anti-fat propaganda from the sugar lobby where we went from “Maybe eating some fat in your diet isn’t a bad thing” to “YOU MUST EAT AS MUCH FAT AND OIL AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE.”
There’s actually nothing wrong about this. Video is nonsense. Heavy creamers are basically the same thing not whipped yet.
And the non dairy little single serving things are flavored oil.
Reminds me of that olive oil coffee Starbucks was selling that caused people to shit their pants.
Bulletproof coffee works well to clean you out and if you are on the Keto diet it’s a decent pick.
Adding butter to ramen is amazing
Okay but the last time I checked that wasn’t the type of coffee. 🫤
Pro-tip: if you replace the water in your instant ramen with coffee, it’ll have coffee in it.
Lpt: add a lemon peel and honey to any coffee incl instant and it will taste gourmet. Add condensed milk if you’re feeling fancy.
I see people add milk, I see people add cream - is butter that different?
I used to do this because it was supposedly better than sugary creamers. You’re supposed to use a little blender to whip it up though, then it actually tastes super good.
Adding some coarse salt to heavy cream and dropping in an immersion blender makes a whipped butter that goes well in the coffee and on toast

Bullet(proof) coffee is over a decade old already
I completely agree, but there’s an exception: weed butter.
keto
My arthritis got fucked watching this video
I enjoy a buttery coffee on a blue moon. Not for health reasons. I just like it. What’s the arthritis risk though?
Animal fat in general is a bad thing for clogged veins, this is also why fastfood and such moved to plant based oils
Because laxatives, that’s why.
I’ve done this and it tastes pretty good.
Wow, I’ll try that tomorrow
Cant provide any sources but, doesnt caffeine bind to fats similar to the way that thc binds to coffee?
Bruh wut?

The guy who downvoted this post probably adds butter to his coffee.

Because butter coffee is what one drinks on keto - bullet proof coffee
