You have not lived unless you have used a Frieling coffee press. They really are the best of the best when it comes to these things. Awesome write up, thank you for writing.

Specialty or premium coffee you don’t need cream or sugar. Cream and sugar will take away from all the excellent notes coffee has. Bad quality coffee needs sugar because it has strong acidity and cream is for flavor and changing the coffee texture.

I do like the way you prepare your coffee Brandon. French Pressing coffee is similar to the African way of preparing coffee.

We like to ground our coffee ourselves while grinding coffee a pot of what is boiling and by the time you are done grinding the coffee water is ready. Then you dispense your quantity based off of how many people you’re serving. At this time, you can smell all the floral, wine, robust notes that are fuming in the air.

Brandon, Kawa Java is delighted to know we are your morning and evening beverage everyday and each time you run out of African coffee. That is a huge compliment for us.

Black!

I used to be in sales that had me sitting down at my customers’ kitchen tables. Most people are very hospitable and nearly always “oh hi, can I get you a coffee?” is one of the first things they say. And who am I to knock back a coffee. The funny thing is that even after they’ve asked you how you take your coffee, you still seem to get whatever they _think_ you said…

I quickly got used to taking my coffee in many many different ways (including one occasion that was instant made with cold water).

Today, I’m a little more fussy. As long as it is strong I’m happy. And by “strong” I mean: strong enough to dissolve the spoon!

Black – instant, brewed, drip, etc. As you put it, just me and the bean

My father’s rule growing up was always that I was allowed to drink coffee as long as I took it black. It holds true to this day.

However, I do depart from the rule for non-drip coffee. My morning Americano comes with two raw sugars and a bit of half-and-half. When I drink straight espresso I put a bit of sugar in it to cut the bitterness.

Otherwise, I’ll keep it simple. Black it is.
