For black coffee, you need to find the right roast. Because you're gonna really taste the coffee cuz It's not being masked with cream or milk.

English breakfast tea, dash of half fat milk

But what kind of coffee beans? And how do you brew it? (French press is the way)

Usually I take americanos, double shot espresso with hot water

Tried a bunch of different beans, all taste like shit compared to latte!!

See, that's the problem. You need to get rid of that extra hot water. It needs to be even more concentrated so it saturates you bitterness receptors

coconut cream 4tw

Drink it like a shot 😂

Srsly. That is the way.

Roll with what you like broheme. Cut calories elsewhere if possible

Makes me think. A food / calorie tracker like macro actor built on nostr would be cool. Dunno about pricing tho bc you'd need to yank in food infos

You're the only one making sense

Pinch of salt. Cuts the bitterness.

Goat milk, salt, maple syrup.

Don’t know where you’re from but in Europe we actually don’t know what’s actually good coffee lol

Up here in Scandinavia we know.

Try some Tarrazú from Costa Rica. Slow- / light-roasted, non-bitter with a touch of cocoa.

It’s gonna suck for several months to a year. Quit coffee additives cold turkey and give it time. Eventually, your taste buds will adapt to the bitter taste. I genuinely enjoy the taste now.

Playing around with different roasts and brewing methods can help too

Light roast Kenyan or Ethiopian specialty coffee, carefully handbrewed with V60, ground at the spot, weighed and timed just right ... No sugar, milk or anything, just coffee and me. I live for that shit.

Try going to an unbearably hip indie coffee shop and see if you like theirs.

Interesting, I prefer the Central and South American beans myself. Maybe I’ll give the African ones a try again.

Does a splash of milk really make a difference?

In terms of calories

I like the latte with sugar, usually about 160-200 calories

Couple teaspoons won't hurt calories but doesn't help flavor that much either

Have tried maple syrup with black coffee? Might be nice middle ground.

ah, yeah, it's the sugar that'll get ya

You need better coffee, maybe? Try the Counter Culture Single Origin. So much natural flavors that come out when you drink it black.

You just haven't had a good coffee. Visit me in Warsaw, I'll make you one

😅😂🤔

I had my eyes opened to the dangers of sugar and drink it any other way. It’s my daily ritual that reminds me to embrace the more bitter parts of life.

The caffeine is worth it all.

There is a reason the land of milk and honey is paradise

Try this coffee with a little bit of honey. So good. #coffeechain

Plain and simple it’s the wrong coffee. What taste do you like?

Dark chocolate or maybe something more fruity?

Do your digging, there is clack espresso coffee out there that basically tastes like 95% dark chocolate it’s awesome

Milk is fine on shitty coffee beans imo

And as soon as you found the right coffee there is also the „right“ way to create coffee. :) ☕️ 🐇 🕳️

Try removing all the fat in your diet and then just pour 3 tablespoons of sugar in your coffee. Problem solved.

fat is very important in diet

Maybe, maybe not. Most people have so much fat on their body they can do without it in their diet for a very long time. Add it back in moderation later as needed or once in a while as a treat. Good luck on the coffee thing. I like mine black or with cream and sugar. Just depends on the day.

Add cinnamon

I'm sipping a delicious dark roast black at this very moment.

Maybe I will! 😜

I take mine Black as everything else is too sweet and dairy tends to mess me up more than straight black coffee.

Maybe since you are a Canuck, try tea 🤷‍♂️🤣

(Just messing with ya!)

go with a darker roast, it will be less bitter

gotta use a dark roast my guy

That’s the shirt right there. “Gfy bitter bean juice”

god bless cream

yikes bad take

It’s so good I drank it all! 🤤

I feel how you do about dark chocolate though. No one really likes that shit. Dark chocolate is a psyop.

This is the way. 😈

Fuck bitter bean juice!

I’ve been loving black coffee for decades. My wife gives me crap about it

Counting calories is a waste of your time. Add a tablespoon of heavy cream and 5 drops of stevia and you will love your coffee!

wrong, that's why I'm down 25lbs or bodyfat and all my lifts are up since getting off the ridiculous carnivore diet, I fell for your cult and my body paid dearly

how can one call counting calories wrong

i'm losing braincells hefe

Because you're trying to monetize carnivore content

honey, their making me become a carniwhore again

they're

stg i hate autocorrect

Can confirm, but with tea, a plant-based creamer (I don't consume cow's milk products due to autism) and a little bit of monk fruit/erythritol mix... boy do I like it.

Tea by itself, though... now that's some good stuff.

Try natural processed beans if you can. They dry the whole coffee cherry in the sun without removing the fruit so those sweet berry flavors get infused into the beans. That's how I got into drinking black coffee.

Been drinking it black for 5+ years now.

I still occasionally have a latte if I go for coffee (seems a rip off paying the same price for an americano). I always find it a bit underwhelming.

I like the bitterness & that it stays hot for ages in my double walled cup.
