I’m Craving Coffee Now! Hey Any One Try’ed Star Bucks In The Bag? It’s Good!
Oh man…I want to try the coffee he makes.
@415trevor now every1 knows who he is x3
50,000th view. Nice vid.
How do those vietnamese metal drip filters compare to french presses or that hour glass thing he showed?
i like coffee, but it has to much of a caffeine spike, and am i the only guy who has noticed that this guy is kinda jittery at times?
This guy is a real expert. He knows what he’s talking about. I agree with everything he said.
Man, Jamie is so funny in the background!
He is an expert
…Maybe you should check out your local grocery and buy a bottle of soap.
Opinion.
ever heard of WASHING YOUR HANDS?
I think it’s funny how people will argue over the correct way to produce something, let alone drink something, that basically tastes like liquid dirt.
welcome to the internet .
at one point he talks about health. yet these guys arnt using rubber gloves all the time. how can you spout out topics such as health. when your grimey fingers are all over the beans and such.
Try Hines Public Market. John Sanders makes some amazing coffee. He’s in Vancover BC under the name Origins Organic Coffee.
Blue bottle is hands down the best choice as far as coffee q & a. Good job CHOW.
You should try and track Arno down again to demonstrate his / their technique for cold brewing.
Oh, I love Arno! He’s a funny guy. I love how quickly he said “NO!” to the question about freezing beans.
1:32 looks wat he does its amazing
instant ftw haha
Excellent video and this guy knows his stuff. I too have a Chemex at home and love it, definitely worth the money, especially for the hand blown models.
Life should be… simpler
When you punctuate a sentence, there should be no space between the last word and the punctuation.
Same, i never drink coffee because the only coffee i can get is that grocerystore shit.
wow. this guy has it all down. great stuff! expert!
