    I normally enjoy engaging with this type of blatant stereotyping…but this? Treating Gentoo like it’s a real thing people use irl?

    You know what, this is really accurate. I won’t touch Ubuntu or a pod machine. I will use an old percolator, if necessary, but it’s not something I would ever pick over other options. I also bounce between other distros just as often as I bounce between coffee brewing methods!

    I wonder where openSUSE falls on this paradigm? Moka pot, maybe?

    Excuse me but I’m a Debian user and I’m not using the same system since 10 years.

    More like 30 years.

      Debian is the Bunn of the Linux world. There forever and constantly working.

      It’s essentially a funnel with a flat base. I just cut the bottom of one of mine to be more flat and works just as well.

      It IS simple and awesome, and it can be cheap af. Got mine from a dollarstore 2 decades ago and I still love it more than any other coffee prep.

      Oh my goodness you are in for a treat! Pourover coffee is in my opinion the best way to prepare a cup. Get yourself a v60, and the paper filters that go with it, watch a James Hoffman video on proper v60 technique, and enjoy. It should actually give a cleaner cup (less residue) than the French press.

      It’s simply, filter paper, coffee mug. With plastic cone thingy in between to hold the filter paper above the cup

      It’s the same as Debian really, it just looks more primitive.

      It’s basically a direct drip system with a filter. It won’t be quite as strong as french press since the grounds don’t get the same surface area to interact with the hot water. Same with the Fedora.

      They are both still pretty good depending on the beans, but they wont ever compare to a gourmand gentoo setup. That ends up creamy, airy, and strong with no additives. That said the effort and money to make this work isn’t worth it to anyone not heavily invested in it either for a business or for their own whim.

      As a fan of Arabic Coffee openSUSE would be the closest equivalent. It can be simple or sports car depending on sourcing and hardware.

      Mint is more like instant coffee. Fast, easy, with little hardware required, and comes in a variety of prepackaged flavors.

      That’s just pretentious, man. You do that for the musafir but there’s no way you use that impossible to clean cezve on a daily basis.

      Here, use this:

      A teaspoon for every little cup of water. Heat it fast until it simmers, stir like crazy for two minutes, pour, then let it froth slightly, then pour again.

      I use Arch and Debian depending on what I think is easiest.

    Fedora would be a French Press.

    Reliable, consistent, hard to screw up, broad information online on how to use one.

      That’s what I use, it’s so much simpler. And I only use the press because my wife refuses to buy me instant coffee, otherwise that’s what I’d drink, cause it’s so about ease for me. A press is easier to clean

      Nah, apple would be refusing to learn anything about coffee or coffee making and drive to a store to have the arch user do stuff for them (Philz coffee if you aren’t from the bay area)

    I prepare my coffee in a cup, and drink it with grounds. No milk, no sugar.

    I am an embedded developer.

    Sometimes when I’m too lazy to boil water, I leave coffee grounds with cold water in a cup overnight, the coffee is strong enough in the morning, and no need to wait for it to cool.
