Hey, I’m no Ubuntu user! … I’m a linux mint user. /j
I do French Press, where does that put me?
I’m French Press and I use Fedora.
PopOS
I feel like with french press being all manual PopOS isn’t the right fit.
I think in this graphic I would replace the Fedora pour-over thing with a French Press because they already did pour-over with Arch.
And then Android is a Starbucks cup.
And then Android is a Starbucks cup.
That does Android a huge disservice. Android is a well made Nescafe. It’s not the coffee of your choice, but it is stable and reliable, and doesn’t make a fuss if you pour other coffees into it.
You might argue that the dairy and sugar dessert beverages served at Starbucks often don’t count as real coffee, much the way Android has very little in common with the rest of the Linux ecosystem. It technically has Linux/coffee in it.
The pour-over thing is called Chemex just FYI. It’s supposed to be different than regular pour-over. I use Fedora…
How is it different other than going into a temporary container before going into the cup?
That fits. Just like Android, Starbucks coffee is well made, by someone who isn’t you.
The quality of the final product is still in question though.
made, by someone who isn’t you, who works for a large and terrible corporation doing god knows what harm around the world.

What if i use AmogOS?
You will have to film yourself preparing coffee
Edit: and upload it on YouTube
My wife is an arch user… Oh no.
So what’s a cup of instant equivalent? Don’t tell me it’s Windows.
Mac os. Windows wouldn’t be coffee at all
that’s good postum!
Nah, the macOS equivalent would be going to starbucks
Overpriced and mid? Yup, checks out
WSL2
I just need to run this script and I need it fast
ChromeOS? lol
Windows is Monster. Will give you your caffeine fix, does what is supposed to do, but will slowly destroy your body.
Slackware
As simple as Arch, but more stable.
The design is almost 100 years old and doesn’t need daily filter updates.Do these work ok on a glass top stove?
Yes. Although I recommend getting the stainless steel version. It can work on anything even an induction hob. It’s the one I take travelling.
Yes
But also it burns the coffee
Only when you use it wrong.
So it burns the coffee.
That sounds an awful lot like the blaming the user. Maybe it really is the slackware of coffee.
It’s easy to blame the user when they don’t bother to read the manual or follow basic instructions.
I’ve used a moka pot nearly every day for 10 years, never burned my coffee with it. I’m not even sure how you’d do that unless you just completely ignore it when it’s done and leave it on the stove forever.
I can’t imagine how you burn coffee with a mocha pot.
Like, you’d have to go out of your way and intentionally try to burn coffee with it.
Tbh confused how you even managed to burn the coffe with this, as it is just evaporating water that filters through the coffee above - like did you put the coffee in the bottom part? 🤔
I haven’t experienced this, but from what I hear if you start with cooler water in the bottom and have the heat set too high, you can overheat the pot and the grounds before the water comes to temp to actually brew.
The few times I’ve used my moka pot I’ve preheated the water in a kettle so it gets to brewing faster (based on coffee people recommendations online.)
This is the correct way to do it.
Boil the water first, pour it in the bottom, place coffee in section on top, screw on top part, heat till it brews out the too, then remove from heat as soon as it’s done.
It does not. A regular percolator does, as it circulates the coffee back into the boiling water, unlike a moka pot, where the finished coffee does not sit at the bottom close to the heat, but in the top compartment. You should take it off the stove as soon as it’s done to avoid getting the finished coffee back to a boil or overextracting the coffee but if you do it right, they make really good coffee. There are even some versions that feature a valve, so the coffee is cooked at a higher pressure, getting it a little closer to espresso and producing a nice –albeit short lived – crema.
Hell, mine made crema on the first try. I probably over-pressed the coffee though.
I really like the mocha pot, but I’m a cappucino fan - if only there were a simple way to steam milk. I even have a Bellman, but it takes forever to build up pressure.
You shouldn’t press the coffee in a moka. Leave it as fluffy as you can
Me too. And a lot of chatter (how are people managing to burn the coffee!?). Classic. Stable. Easy to maintain. Need to take care to get the best results.
I use Debian and USA a French French press since 9 years ^^
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.
Aeropress gang representing.
I run debbie kde plasma x11 btwAeropress and Fedora! Apparently I should use Chemex instead
Aeropress gang, but running mint.
Samesies
Same. “Works pretty well out of the box but I have the option to fuck it up”
That’s the best description I’ve heard in a while. Also, the user interface hasn’t changed in a decade.
Aeropress and PopOs
I was gonna say, how do you know an aeropress/nixos user - they’ll tell you. But Debian works too 😂
Can confirm. I’m a Debian user and use a Cuisinart grind and brew I’ve had for ages. It’s actually the second of two of the same model after the first broke following years of loyal service.
I have a Cuisinart grind and brew, which is pushing a decade old at this point. Love the thing and will replace it with something similar if it dies before I do. But, I use Ubuntu on my server and Arch on my desktop. So, not this meme fits, but it is funny.
I’ve been considering switching to Arch for my desktop. Is it worth it? Did you use anything else on desktop before switching?
Isn’t the coffee prep between Fedora and Arch the same?
Also what says it about me when I use those and the Ubuntu machine?
Oh… Yeah my raspberry and my server run Ubuntu.
My surface uses Fedora
And my computer uses EndeavourOS.
Yeah that checks out.
Fedora and Arch are both pour-over, which is a subset of drip coffee. Would be nice to pick distros that really show that family tree.
The jug is bloat
Filtered directly into the mouth.
I use a french press and endeavouros. don’t know what that says…
It says there are at least two of us!
Three now!
I use Fedora and sometimes Debian (Debian is love! 🌀❤️), and brew my coffee in a moka pot.
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.
Filter into a Thermos?
Hah, this checks out for me.
