    Formerly Gentoo, now TumbleWeed user. But this chart doesn’t align

    I put the ground coffee (a lot of it) in the mug and pour hot water. Stir it a bit later, then the grounds stay put in the bottom usually. I’ve been told I drink asphalt, but then I just feel like everyone drinks very weak coffee. I do this because I want it to be a quick process, I don’t want to buy a fancy machine that requires maintenace, and I want my coffee to have a proper kick.

    What distro does this mean?

        It’s moderately common in my country where coffee is often consumed for the caffeine content and not the taste. We call it the “thief’s coffee” because it’s minimal prep to get your fix quickly, almost as if you were committing a burglary lol

          I mean Turkish coffee is sort of like what you described, but you use a super fine grind and a lot of the grounds stay in the pot. But if you like drinking mud then more powered to ya.

          Different strokes for different folks, I was just poking fun that you’re taking the approach of “everyone else is drinking weak coffee, I make the real stuff” kinda like Terry was certain that his ways were best even though alternatives already existed.

            There’s no pot involved here, you put it in the mug, but ideally you also use a super fine grind so it stays in the mug usually

            “everyone else is drinking weak coffee, I make the real stuff” kinda like Terry was certain that his ways were best even though alternatives already existed.

            Oh fair enough

            To be fair I didn’t mean to insinuate that it’s manlier to drink literal mud, it’s just how my mom always made it for herself when I was a kid and I just… learned to like it. It’s very much an acquired taste. But yes, there’s always a moment of pride when people say “wtf how can you drink this shit” :)

    As a french press user I put the beans in the press vessel, start the water kettle (double checking that water is in), forget about it all so water will have to be reheated, pour water over beans, forget about it all for 15-83 minutes and then finally get to enjoy my coffee.

    Will drink it all. And wish I had made more.

    What OS for me?

      Also French press (this one) here. It’s great for hot coffee, but I prefer to use it for cold brew. Course grind and let it sit in there for almost a day at room temperature (I put either plastic wrap or an upside down plate to avoids surprise ingredients). Then plunge and pour into a cup for drinking and a storage container for the fridge.

      Mostly Xubuntu but also SteamOS and EndeavourOS with KDE Plasma DE.

        Does it affect the taste too much if you put the top on with the plunge down just a little bit? That’s what I usually do when doing cofe, but then it’s just five minutes so probably doesn’t affect as much.

    Yes, I’m a Fedora user.

    And yes, I own the Fedora type coffee thingy.

    But I only use Fedora because of the great atomic variants, and I only own that thingy because I don’t drink coffee, and it’s a cheap way to still offer some to guests.

    Fedora would be a French Press.

    Reliable, consistent, hard to screw up, broad information online on how to use one.

      That’s what I use, it’s so much simpler. And I only use the press because my wife refuses to buy me instant coffee, otherwise that’s what I’d drink, cause it’s so about ease for me. A press is easier to clean

    NixOS would be like brewing coffee with laboratory equipment and then setting it up for automation.
