You've got Ritual, Blue Bottle and Sight Glass right there in the Bay Area. I'd start there. Plus, there're a lot more roasters in the Bay Area than most other cities anywhere. If you don't find what you like from them, there are plenty of other local options. You guys are blessed in that sense.

...And Chank always delivers!! Thanks man, I'll be sure to check those out

You're welcome. Fresher beans are better beans and with all those roasters near you, you should be able to find something you like.
I think I need a third hand. So I can drink coffee and play guitar at the same time.

Coffee this week: Brazil Catui Natural Santa Helena II
It's quite a mouthful of a name and I have quite a mouthful of coffee right now.
Been enjoying quite a few South American coffees lately.
I think I'm an African coffee guy, though.

Yeah, but you need some American coffees every now and then to cleanse your palate.

Did a cold-brew for the first time this weekend. It worked pretty well, tasted awesome, but it gotta tweak the recipe. Came in way strong with not a lot of liquid out, but lots of grounds used. (Using Bustelo, so I had initial doubts on whether the robusto beans would be too bitter, but no problem there.)
Anyone practiced in the cold-brew arts have tips?

I typically drink coffee black, but the other day I put some grassfed butter in there. Fucking delicious - and I am typically a guy who hates milk/cream in coffee. Anyone try this?
Here is some info about it. Ignore all the proprietary marketing bullshit, this is just where I got the inspiration from.

Huh.
A friend of mine puts coconut oil in his coffee.
I've never heard of trying butter though.
Sounds like it could be great though.

Glad to hear about the coconut oil, I was going to try that also today. I got a big ass jar of it. I use it for salad dressing and cooking eggs and spinach and shit.

Well, I think he mainly does it to add tons of calories into his meal.
He's bulking and shit or something like that.
But he says it's delicious.

Cold brew recipes typically make a concentrate that you dilute with water or milk. I know it seems sacrilegious to water down your coffee, but give it a shot, and then the concentrate will go further as well.
