Sensitive thread! BEWARE! (coffee)

[vass0922]

I don't need no stinkin' poll

Anyways!

When I make coffee I pour the coffee in THEN I add sugar and/or creamer (generally just tons of sugar)...

The problem is, I see other people put in creamer/sugar .. and THEN coffee

To me it seems you have to work more stirring to get all the stuff off the bottom.. whereas with putting in the coffee first and THEN sugar etc it doesn't stick to the bottom.

Especially with powdered creamers (yuck).

So which is it?
Coffee --> additives
Additives --> Coffee...

then compare and contrast

Wow... Apparently you've had too much coffee if you had enough energy to post something like this.

I like the disclaimer and I agree abot the mental health thing, but I am still no donating.

Coffee -> Creamer -> Sugar. In that order. Always.

[Detritus]

Creamer? Sugar? What are these things you speak of? Perhaps a foreign language? Would you help me understand why anyone would add anything to a drink so perfect, so wonderful, neh so beautiful, shall I say it? A drink of the gods? Yes I shall utter the name coffee....

black the only way to drink coffee...

[Telexen]

do the additives evaporate, or somehow escape the container if the coffee is poured on it?

If stirred right., they should produce the same result

I don't drink coffee though

[vass0922]

no not at all, but if you put the powder/crystals in first it takes a little more effort to make sure that its all stirred in and not stuck to the bottom.

For a visual pour flour into the bottom of a glass and pour hot water over it. You'll get most off the bottom but there's always some left unless you really work at it!


no not bored, just avoiding work

Coffee -> coffee -> coffee.

Black is fine

[SpookyEddy]

Another vote for coffee -> water -> drink

milk is acceptable when speed drinking is an issue, sugar is vile.

1. pour hot coff in coffee cup 8 oz., not mug - get's cold too fast
2. add sugar to happily dance and melt in the coffee
3. add fresh cream to the perfect degree of 'lightness'
4. I'll omit the special spoon, sugar for now.....

that's me and I'll stick with this story

oh, here's $0.02 for Vass......

Okay, boy coffee sounds really good right now, think gonna make me a batch.

anyways now for my input.


Coffee > Powdered Addittives > Stir > Drink
My Analyasis on this: because like Vass said, its harder to stir up the gunk off the bottom of the cup to get a good even mix.

Liquid Creamer > Coffee > Drink
My analysis: Creamer if often recommended to shake up before pouring so its got its rich creamy teture all mixed up. By pouring in the coffee afterwards this creates a turbalance and stirs up the creamer and coffee while the coffee is poured. no need for a spoon the coffee pouring action does it all, So only thing left to do is to Drink UP!

Coffee > Drink = Blech!!!! Yucko, i never drink black coffee, the only way I drink coffee is with liquid creamer. I even purchase a box of those indivuaul Irish Cream or Vanilla Creamres so when I go out I have my own creamer. I do not like 1/2 and 1/2 or the sugar or powered stuffs.
