Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I am very lucky in that a couple of guys from my hometown, which I still live close-ish to, opened up a mini-roastery that makes absolutely exceptional coffee. I get it from there whenever I can

Barring that, it basically depends on what's available and priced well at the supermarket. I know I tend to enjoy East African coffees best, so I'll go for one of those if I can. Union's stuff is really good but quite pricey, so I usually only go for that if it's on offer or want to treat myself

I also keep a jar of Douwe Egberts decaf instant coffee in the cupboards too, because I quite enjoy one of those on cold evenings. It's not the same thing as proper coffee, but it hits its own role for me
