DD's iced Americano is shockingly good.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Punishingly Intricate

Yeah, I can totally see if I was drinking it black I might care.
And the one time I tried coffee milk (while my brother in law was living in Rhode Island I insisted we try) it was...odd. Not my jam, but I was like "if I'd grown up with this I could see how I'd want it and have a hard time getting that specific taste anywhere else"

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm lazy as hell, so I just brew it in the evening and stick it in the fridge.
I use one of these and the only hard part is remembering to fill it up the morning before. (That, and remembering to go to the coffee shop to buy the right beans, because I am a grade-A snob when it comes to coffee and use separate beans for espresso, cold brew, and French press.)
I really want a home nitro cold brew keg but I can't justify the cost or the counter-space. I have, at last count, either 4 or 9 ways to make coffee at home depending on whether you count the French presses or cone filters grouped or individually. (But I really really really want it. I looooove nitro coffee.)

I mean....maybe you could keep it at your office, Jessica? If you love nitro cold brew....:)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I keep wondering if cold brew will be easier on my stomach. I haven't been able to drink coffee since I had my gallbladder surgery.

I love coffee, but the acid and caffeine really get to my stomach. Is cold brew better/worse for those of us who have "sensitive stomachs"?

Cold brew is supposed to be less acidic.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I have a rumble jar but it is still in the packaging. I hardly make my own coffee lately, I pretty much only drink it at the office and I figure I might as well drink the stuff they provide.
Give me that french dessert with espresso poured over vanilla all day though.
Affogato? I though that was Italian. It's freaking delicious wherever it comes from. But coffee ice cream is also delicious. As are chocolate covered espresso beans. And just the other day I was finishing off the half cup of coffee leftover from the morning that had been sitting on my desk for several hours and it was particularly delicious, also. So, you know, coffee=yum.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Cold brew definitely tastes less acidic or bitter or something, which is why I like it less! (Which is weird, given that I put milk and sugar in.)
WTF Is Up With People Drinking Iced Coffee In Freezing Weather?
The person with the Dunks in the snow with no gloves is definitely from MA or RI.
Now I want a coffee frappe.
