Slackware
As simple as Arch, but more stable.
The design is almost 100 years old and doesn't need daily filter updates.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago)

Me too. And a lot of chatter (how are people managing to burn the coffee!?). Classic. Stable. Easy to maintain. Need to take care to get the best results.

But also it burns the coffee

[–] [email protected] 39 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Only when you use it wrong.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

That sounds an awful lot like the blaming the user. Maybe it really is the slackware of coffee.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 9 hours ago

It's easy to blame the user when they don't bother to read the manual or follow basic instructions.

I've used a moka pot nearly every day for 10 years, never burned my coffee with it. I'm not even sure how you'd do that unless you just completely ignore it when it's done and leave it on the stove forever.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

It does not. A regular percolator does, as it circulates the coffee back into the boiling water, unlike a moka pot, where the finished coffee does not sit at the bottom close to the heat, but in the top compartment. You should take it off the stove as soon as it’s done to avoid getting the finished coffee back to a boil or overextracting the coffee but if you do it right, they make really good coffee. There are even some versions that feature a valve, so the coffee is cooked at a higher pressure, getting it a little closer to espresso and producing a nice –albeit short lived – crema.

Tbh confused how you even managed to burn the coffe with this, as it is just evaporating water that filters through the coffee above - like did you put the coffee in the bottom part? 🤔

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

I haven't experienced this, but from what I hear if you start with cooler water in the bottom and have the heat set too high, you can overheat the pot and the grounds before the water comes to temp to actually brew.

The few times I've used my moka pot I've preheated the water in a kettle so it gets to brewing faster (based on coffee people recommendations online.)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

I use refrigerated filtered water in mine. Maybe I just don't set the heat too high though? I use a coil stovetop and put the knob around 7.5/10. Coffee takes 7-8 minutes after I turn it on.

I use an off-brand clone of a Nespresso machine with off-brand pods. Hannah Montana Linux?

As a french press user I put the beans in the press vessel, start the water kettle (double checking that water is in), forget about it all so water will have to be reheated, pour water over beans, forget about it all for 15-83 minutes and then finally get to enjoy my coffee.

Will drink it all. And wish I had made more.

What OS for me?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago

IMO, probably Gentoo, but compiled from source.

And the last time you recompiled the kernel was, at most, 3 days ago.

Aeropress gang representing.
I run debbie kde plasma x11 btw

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Aeropress gang, but running mint.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Same. "Works pretty well out of the box but I have the option to fuck it up"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 hours ago

That's the best description I've heard in a while. Also, the user interface hasn't changed in a decade.

I was gonna say, how do you know an aeropress/nixos user - they'll tell you. But Debian works too 😂

NixOS would be like brewing coffee with laboratory equipment and then setting it up for automation.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 9 hours ago

Well, dammit, now I gotta go try NixOS. Gee, thanks for sending me down the rabbit hole, like I have time for yet another one!

Debian (i3 on laptop, headless on homelab).

But apparently my coffee is Arch.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

So what's a cup of instant equivalent? Don't tell me it's Windows.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 11 hours ago

ChromeOS? lol

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

WSL2

I just need to run this script and I need it fast

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

Mac os. Windows wouldn't be coffee at all

[–] [email protected] 48 points 11 hours ago

Nah, the macOS equivalent would be going to starbucks

Looseleaf earl grey and 20 years of debian.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 hours ago* (last edited 8 hours ago)

I have a pour over, a french press, and a drip filter.

I use mint xfce, BTW.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Formerly Gentoo, now TumbleWeed user. But this chart doesn't align

I put the ground coffee (a lot of it) in the mug and pour hot water. Stir it a bit later, then the grounds stay put in the bottom usually. I've been told I drink asphalt, but then I just feel like everyone drinks very weak coffee. I do this because I want it to be a quick process, I don't want to buy a fancy machine that requires maintenace, and I want my coffee to have a proper kick.

What distro does this mean?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

That sounds like the TempleOS equivalent of coffee methods

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 hours ago (2 children)

It's moderately common in my country where coffee is often consumed for the caffeine content and not the taste. We call it the "thief's coffee" because it's minimal prep to get your fix quickly, almost as if you were committing a burglary lol

Or maybe use Ubuntu so you have time to make the espresso?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 hours ago

I guess french pressers use BSD.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 hours ago

looks pretty cool to me

yeah I like this, describes the experience well :)

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 hours ago

I use Fedora and sometimes Debian (Debian is love! 🌀❤️), and brew my coffee in a moka pot.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 hours ago (2 children)

I use a french press and endeavouros. don't know what that says...

CentOS would be an empty coffee tin that still smells like coffee.
