Coffee!

[Deleted member 194275]

Tbf, never had stomache ulcers from drinking coffee. Only suffered a few minor mouth burns from the piping hot drink.

Took me a while to understand what you meant, now I got it.

Absolutely not. While those spices work great in a pie with, you know, actual pumpkin, putting them in coffee does not taste like pumpkin spice ANYthing. I've tried it and you're completely wrong.

Skill issue.

Skill issue.

Not at all. If you saw my kitchen coffee setup(s), you wouldn't be saying that. Pumpkin Spice has, you know, pumpkin flavoring in it as well.

Okay.

"Pumpkin spice does not include pumpkin as an ingredient."


The original recipe didn't have pumpkin in it, natural or artificial. Starbucks started adding a tiny amount of actual pumpkin in 2015 to shut up all the "if pumpkin spice why no pumpkin" comments, but they made damn sure it wouldn't be noticeable in the final product.

But no, a "pumpkin spice" latte shouldn't taste of pumpkins.

LMFAO! You're source is a Wiki article and a Starbucks history story?

And I actually have that exact same pumpkin spice powder. Try putting that in your coffee and drinking it. Tastes terrible, nothing like pumpkin spice, and doesn't even dissolve in the coffee. Do you also think there's no pumpkin or pumpkin flavoring in a pumpkin pie? Or just the pumpkin pie spices? LOL! "Pumpkin Spice" spices alone don't make a "Pumpkin Spice" flavored beverage. You also need the pumpkin flavoring. Starbucks original recipe was an exception, and people pretty much said "No, this isn't fucking Pumpkin Spice you morons!" And they changed it because of that. Period. Keep trying. Me: 2 You: 0

Just Install AROMA or even Tiramisu in the coffee guys

Well there you go. Like I said, skill issue .

My goto is dolce gusto, cafe au lait pods.

Quick, easy and serviceable. If I want something better I go to a coffee shop.

doesn't even dissolve in the coffee.

I'm no coffee expert but does any spice really dissolve that well in coffee? Wouldn't you want to steep your milk with them? Make a syrup from them maybe?

Syrup in coffee is gonna make me sick, they tried it at starbuck, man it's not good, spice on the other hand can go perfect in coffee.
The stong bitter sour doesn't go with syrup like sweet.
By the way, the best coffee is as dark as my soul.

I get that, I find a lot of coffee syrups are far too sweet. Making your own can be quite good though.

I like the flavour of spice in a coffee too, but rather than try and dissolve spice directly into a coffee I would infuse something with the spices, usually some milk.

Can be cream, milk, and it works with frappucino (cold coffee, with milk icecream.
Syrop never works for me, but than again i want strong coffee, so that might be part of the why it doesn't work.

I find a well made caramel syrup goes quite well with strong coffee. Just make a simple dark caramel (170c - 175c) and let down with water. You get the complex bitter flavours from the caramel instead of just in your face sweetness like you get from a lot of coffee shops

Yes, you either simmer them in milk or in simple syrup, to extract the flavor, then you strain out the solids so the drink isn't gritty. You don't just dump a spoonful of raw spices into your coffee and call it a day.

Coffee is my friend. I adore coffee, I drink coffee with tonic , irish coffee, iced coffee, coffee with a cigarette, coffee in bed, coffee with milk I have been drinking lately (there was an allergy to lactose), but even despite this, I sometimes drink coffee with regular fatty milk once a year)))

 

[GeekyGuy]

Started making my own evaporated milk with 1% milk. Third attempt seems to be the charm. Learned a couple of things from the first two tries, but yesterday I also filtered the milk through a coffee filter when it had cooled down a bit. It's a lot of work, but it sure tastes good this morning, with a much more pleasurable texture.

Coffeeeee!!! yeah

No milk?

No milk?

Unless it's a DaLgOnA.
I stopped consuming milk nearly altogether.
Nearly, because I do enjoy hot cocoa during winter.
