Has anyone experimented with this brewing technique before? Individual drip coffee, though not as prevalent in the US, is quite popular in Asia. Surprisingly, I haven't come across many brands offering this option, making it somewhat challenging to purchase. I'd love to hear about your experience with using it. How do you like it? I've personally found it to be incredibly convenient!

From an early age, I have always sniffed coffee. Because I couldnβt get enough of the smell, I tried it a few times when I was 7 or 8 just because my mother could barely function. I remember spitting it out every time and drinking it all over again feeling like I was going to gag π.
I tried a bunch of times after that, thinking that maybe as I got older I'd "get over" it, but the same thing happened. I'd wince and cringe at the idea of not drinking coffee and fall into a brief depression. So I haven't even tried to stop drinking or thinking about coffee since I was about 7 and a half.
There's just something gross about not drinking coffee to me. It SEEMS like it should be sweet and chocolate-y, and it is. There's just something about the smell of it roasting that turns me on - and it's far from puzzling that I should have that reaction because all I do is rhapsodize about coffee as it's the actual elixir of life.
I have always had to rely on caffeine to function. Maybe I'm lucky in that department (because I don't have an anxious personality and am super laid back), I do require the presence of coffee and any other caffeine-bearing agent i can get my hands on in my system in order to wake up in the morning, get into my deep work session, put in my 8+ hours, go home, and repeat. It seems like a significant portion of the modern workforce donβt get shit done without the aid of coffee in the morning. I don't find this surprising, and never have. I require caffeine just to sit at a desk and do a bunch of dumb bullshit and 90% of every team I've ever been a part of does.
Sometimes I wonder if any of my coworkers have even tried to go a workday without putting this drug into their systems beforehand. Then I quickly brush that thought off because that's crazyy. Coffee drinking and "coffee culture" are so hard-wired into the modern working day and the modern workforce that there's coffee shops every third block in most major US cities and I love it.
It's awesome to sit at my desk at 9am, operating normally, like I'd be operating at 3pm or 7pm, and hearing my coworkers loudly sipping their brown, thick liquid drug, hearing them swallow it and chug it and then go "ahhh" as if they're junkies downing their first bottle of methadone in the morning. I have always found this whole area of the culture very cool. They look dead-eyed and they're shaking and jittery and then they make all these gurgling noises as they chug down sip after sip of this thick viscous diarrhea-water. Does this seem like the behavior of healthy people to you? Because it does to me. To me they seem like they've got their shit together.
And the best part is when my coworkers or friends or friends or total strangers will just leave their half-drunk cups of coffee sitting around my shared work area. I don't know about anyone else, but there's nothing that makes me feel better than having to smell old, stale coffee sitting around getting cold. It's fucking awesome, I'm sorry. But coffee haters don't, they donβt seem to get that others may get off from their stale-ass old cups of day-old coffee sitting . Coffee always smells good to me, but it always smells better after it's been sitting around for hours and hours.
And then there are "Coffee connoisseurs,' who bring elitism and snootiness to this whole thing, making it seem like they're coffee scientists or something, which they so are. I get it.

I'm not always consistent with my foam/milk at home, but when it's just right, I love all the swirls as the crema and foam mix (this attempt had chocolate powder dusted on the crema before pouring)

Hello!
I am a specialty coffee enthusiast and a mini-entrepreneur. Partly out of a need for the soul and partly to test no-code tools, I decided to create a community-driven database of specialty coffee recipes.
Many of us keep our own "diaries", but I wanted to make it more social. In the future, with voting, showing off our recipes, etc. Call me an idiot if such a thing already exists (I didn't even check). Here's the "proof of concept", but it's already working (https://cuplog.xyz/).
I would gladly accept any records, comments, ideas for expansion. This is my first project like this, so be tough on me π
