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?
You put whole beans in your French press?
IMO, probably Gentoo, but compiled from source.
And the last time you recompiled the kernel was, at most, 3 days ago.
So what’s a cup of instant equivalent? Don’t tell me it’s Windows.
ChromeOS? lol
Mac os. Windows wouldn’t be coffee at all
Nah, the macOS equivalent would be going to starbucks
Overpriced and mid? Yup, checks out
that’s good postum!
Windows is Monster. Will give you your caffeine fix, does what is supposed to do, but will slowly destroy your body.
WSL2
I just need to run this script and I need it fast
My coffee preparation method seems to be closest to the Ubuntu user. I use Pop OS and my coffeemaker is Philips HD7769/00 with an inbuilt bean grinder.
I use Fedora and sometimes Debian (Debian is love! 🌀❤️), and brew my coffee in a moka pot.
Me, a Slackware user: eating raw coffee beans by themselves
I don’t drink coffee and I don’t have a computer, so I guess it’s accurate!
Forgot cold brewers.
apple mac?
Nah, apple would be refusing to learn anything about coffee or coffee making and drive to a store to have the arch user do stuff for them (Philz coffee if you aren’t from the bay area)
V60 with chemex filters … good combo.
All of the above plus moka pot, Aeropress, cold brew, french press, and instant.
Just like with OS selection, I hold no allegiance and use the tool that best fits the requirements.
#TeamV60
But Mac user, sorry.
Also v60 but mint… sorry
V60 is my main, but also have a french press and a manual espresso machine (Flair Pro 2).
Mac user as well.
How do you like your flair? I’ve been considering getting one for a while now but haven’t been able to pull the trigger yet
It’s a bit of a PITA to be honest. Having to pre-heat the brew chamber is annoying and makes the whole process slow. They just released the Pro 3 which uses a different brew chamber that has a lower heat capacity and doesn’t need preheating (according to Flair). It’s compatible with the 2 so I’m probably going to get the pro 3 brew chamber once available.
I’d skip the pro 2 and either get a 3 or the 58 with the electric heater.
Thanks for the advice! That kinda tracks with other reviews and things that have been holding me back, that thermal management is a bit of a pain. I’ll keep an eye on the 3 though
What exactly is the arch one doing? That looks simple and awesome and I hate cleaning my French press.
It’s simply, filter paper, coffee mug. With plastic cone thingy in between to hold the filter paper above the cup
It’s the same as Debian really, it just looks more primitive.
Look into V60 pourover or Aeropress in that case
It IS simple and awesome, and it can be cheap af. Got mine from a dollarstore 2 decades ago and I still love it more than any other coffee prep.
I have one of those for camping but never actually got to trynit
It’s essentially a funnel with a flat base. I just cut the bottom of one of mine to be more flat and works just as well.
Oh my goodness you are in for a treat! Pourover coffee is in my opinion the best way to prepare a cup. Get yourself a v60, and the paper filters that go with it, watch a James Hoffman video on proper v60 technique, and enjoy. It should actually give a cleaner cup (less residue) than the French press.

I am lazy and hate cleaning so this is cool to me
I normally enjoy engaging with this type of blatant stereotyping…but this? Treating Gentoo like it’s a real thing people use irl?

Apparently, I’m a gentoo user.
I use arch by the way
As somone who just made the move from Mint to Fedora, I hate how accurate that is for me as that was my first thought when I deciding what to install
