Petition: Karen Can Make Decent Coffee

(Anonymous) 2015-11-10 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
I vote that Team Avocado just buy better coffee grounds so that their lovely secretary doesn't make bad coffee in every fic. I submit that making good coffee has nothing to do with skill and everything to do with just not buying shitty grounds.

I vote for Folgers Gourmet Toasted Hazelnut. But I also like Starbucks Dark Roast and Cameron's Vanilla Hazelnut is ok (I bought it on sale because I was very excited about six dollars for a bag of coffee lol.) Starbucks Light Roast is nice too - my ex girlfriend used to drink that. Folgers Original isn't very good and it's also not as cheap as you think it would be. It tastes ok with milk though. Green Mountain Coffee black is the worst coffee I have ever had.

This!

I mean, you CAN make bad coffee even with decend grounds (burn it, add too much or not enough water), but it's not that complicated to do it right. I like the Chock Full o'Nuts for something fairly cheap and drinkable, although if I'm feeling fancy I'll get the Eight o'Clock whole bean coffee (if I'm feeling really fancy, I get my brother to steal me some fresh-roasted organic coffee from the fancy place he works, but that's a rare treat).

I'm pretty sure they show the coffee pot in one of the scenes during the show, and it's a standard filter-style, right? Because having finely (or normally) ground coffee in a French press is another way to make your coffee substandard.

When I heard that line I immediately said "then get a better coffee maker, idiots." Coffee is the simplest thing in the world to make, the quality of equipment really dictates what you'll get.




....that being said Folgers ew oh my god ew ew ew ew love yourself and get some Caribou or Lavazza

I vote that they just buy a damn Nespresso machine. Problem solved, everyone happy. :-)
