With the exception of Nero, their coffees are all horrible so a bigger serving isn’t a particularly good thing.

bigger portions are always better, regardless of the quality.

Yeah, annoyingly, the place that take this stance do the absolute best pastries in town and I love it there. Oddly the caffeine in chai does not effect me at all (or in coke for that matter) but in tea of coffee something about the other chemical maybe, idk, but I throw up, get incredibly anxious, and generally feel bad for about 12 hours afterwards. At least they didn’t try to pass off the ordinary stuff as decaf which I’ve definitely experienced several times in some places. Guess they hoped I wouldn’t notice - oh boy, I did :grimacing:

I’d quite like to be more into coffee for that whole routine of brewing it and all that so I know what you mean!

That’s part of what I love about chai is the special pot and the sort of ceremony, but as I have it with barista oat milk it’s like the same calories as a small meal so I’ve had to cut back to pretty much no chai :sob:

imagine if hoogy had voted for the big buckets.

I’d shit myself if I had anything more than about 250ml of coffee at a time

Lets talk about something else

(I am out of coffee beans)

Just found the message about this they said “decaf does not sit with our values as a business”

LOL

I asked them if breastfeeding mothers and people on certain medications sat within their values and they never replied.

So boo hiss to Pollen (glad to remember it wasn’t actually Trove as I thought, who are the rightful champs of the pastry scene)

That said I’m not sure what’s worse - gallon cup of pretty tasteless brown water or thimble full of something that tastes of pot pourri.

I had a coffee in Melbourne that tasted like cucumber. Imagine sitting down for a nice coffee and tasting brown cucumber water.

I think I’m currently in the “being annoyed by the sound of people walking in flip flops” phase of the summer

wet is more steamed milk compared to frothed milk and dry is the opposite
but a latte is just a cappucino with more steamed milk so just get that if that’s what you want?

don’t think he even cared he just wanted to let other people know that he knew it was a thing

Keep doing it and just feed PM endless coffees and see what it does to him? For science

The toilet would be a disaster zone

My appointment is a full hour late now. If I have to do a blood test I might faint :sob:
