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

[–] rockSlayer@lemmy.world 23 points 7 months ago (5 children)

But also it burns the coffee

[–] superkret@feddit.org 34 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Only when you use it wrong.

[–] franklin@lemmy.world 35 points 7 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago

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

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? 🤔

Aeropress gang representing.
I run debbie kde plasma x11 btw

[–] draughtcyclist@lemmy.world 12 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Aeropress gang, but running mint.

[–] simbico@lemmy.zip 9 points 7 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] draughtcyclist@lemmy.world 5 points 7 months ago

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

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

[–] RandomStickman@fedia.io 21 points 7 months ago

ChromeOS? lol

[–] witty_username@feddit.nl 11 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Mac os. Windows wouldn't be coffee at all

[–] accideath@lemmy.world 45 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nah, the macOS equivalent would be going to starbucks

I use this:

Except my stove top is electric.

I use LinuxMint by the way.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

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.

Linux Mint (Moccamaster) it just chugs along and makes the best coffee possible. Fast and reliable.

[–] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 19 points 7 months ago (3 children)

$400 for a drip machine?

Must be a Mac user.

[–] zod000@lemmy.ml 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Its not a drip machine though, it's more like a Chemex that doesn't require you to do the pouring.

[–] Valmond@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

270€ on Amazon here, but you sure got a chuckle out of me 😁

1 litre of delicious coffee in 5 minutes is hard to beat though.

[–] zod000@lemmy.ml 6 points 7 months ago

The analogy works well since its Debian-like, but way more awesome. The Moccamaster is great. As easy to use as a drip, but makes better coffee than the Chemex.

[–] hemko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 7 months ago

Moccamaster<3

I use debian btw

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

[–] BearOfaTime@lemm.ee 5 points 7 months 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!

Fedora would be a French Press.

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

I do French Press, where does that put me?

I think in this graphic I would replace the Fedora pour-over thing with a French Press because they already did pour-over with Arch.

And then Android is a Starbucks cup.

Me, a Slackware user: eating raw coffee beans by themselves

[–] pelya@lemmy.world 10 points 7 months ago (2 children)

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.

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

More like 30 years.

[–] UnPassive@lemmy.world 9 points 7 months ago

Very happy to see myself correctly represented. I use a single cup pourover, BTW

[–] OfCourseNot@fedia.io 8 points 7 months ago

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

[–] slazer2au@lemmy.world 7 points 7 months ago

My wife is an arch user........... Oh no.

[–] lime@feddit.nu 7 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Looseleaf earl grey and 20 years of debian.

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 6 points 7 months ago

I guess french pressers use BSD.

[–] DmMacniel@feddit.org 5 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Isn't the coffee prep between Fedora and Arch the same?

Also what says it about me when I use those and the Ubuntu machine?

Oh... Yeah my raspberry and my server run Ubuntu.

My surface uses Fedora

And my computer uses EndeavourOS.

Yeah that checks out.

I use Debian and use a French French press since 9 years ^^

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 6 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (3 children)

Also French press (this one) here. It’s great for hot coffee, but I prefer to use it for cold brew. Course grind and let it sit in there for almost a day at room temperature (I put either plastic wrap or an upside down plate to avoids surprise ingredients). Then plunge and pour into a cup for drinking and a storage container for the fridge.

Mostly Xubuntu but also SteamOS and EndeavourOS with KDE Plasma DE.

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

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Is a bean to cup espresso machine Calculate Linux then?

[–] blaue_Fledermaus@mstdn.io 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Filter into a Thermos?
