I ALL THE COFFEE!!!
- HijoDMaite1
Wife and I are huge fans of Vietnamese iced coffe. It's absolute liquid crack! So much that we won't have it too late or we can't get to sleep at a decent hour. We can both drink home brewed coffee or Starbucks right before bed no problem. We seem to only be able to find it at actual Vietnamese restaurants though. Another issue is it's so high in sugar.
I went to 99ranch market and picket up a set to make it at home but I cannot get the taste to come out the same. I think they are using a blend of French and Vietnamese roast which I have not figured out yet.
- are you using the condensed milk?omg
- haha, 'liquid crack' is exactly what i used to call itmoldero
- I miss Ranch99, I don't miss its parking lots thoughmoldero
- yea of course condensed milk, that's why its so high in sugar. a dude at a restaurant showed me the blend they use but they buy it through their distributor.HijoDMaite
- i'm sure i can find the right roast online or just go with a good roast in generalHijoDMaite

La Area continued...
Intelligentsia,Pasadena- Less crowded than Silverlake except on the weekend
http://www.intelligentsiacoffee.…Handsome Roasters, Downtown LA- Good Coffee but they were a bit pretentious with their fascist no sweetener rule- They were recently purchased by Blue Bottle Coffee so I excpect some changes.
http://www.handsomecoffee.com/Stumptown Coffee, Downtown LA- I found myself going here more than Handsome as they seemed less pretentious.
http://stumptowncoffee.com/locat…Cafe Vita- If the crowd at the Intelligentsia Silverlake is too much for you drive up Sunset Blvd. a couple blocks and enjoy a cup here.
http://www.caffevita.com/locatio…Cafe demitasse, Little Tokyo- Excellent Cold brew done Kyoto style.
http://cafedemitasse.com/Cafe Dulce Little Tokyo- good coffee tends to get more crowded and loud here than Cafe demitasse
http://www.cafedulce.co/Copa Vida, Pasadena- Just discovered this place tucked away on Raymond... great coffee!

Why adding water when you grind coffee beans makes for a better brew
Coffee aficionados often add a drop of water to their beans before grinding – now scientists have shown that this leads to less mess and a more flavourful espresso

Was in NYC recently. Took me forever to find a decent non-american burn the mouth off you cup of tar.
Found these guys, great drop

I so dig bluebottle. There's one near me in Williamsburg.
SUPER addicted to coffee at the moment.
Better than smoking, right?
