    I dunno, my Keurig doesn’t give my coffee a plastic taste, and I’m buying coffee from restaurants every other day, so it’s not like I’ve gone taste blind. The taste of Keurig coffee, overall, isn’t bad at all, but I do prefer other brewing methods, as the Keurig produces a weaker coffee to me even when I use the “strong” brew setting. Not bad enough for me to toss my Keurig- I’d rather just add another coffeemaker to my “collection,” preferably a Vietnamese or French coffee press. I’ll have the Keurig for convenience and one of those two presses for strong, roasty perfection and the ability to pick out and grind my own coffee beans.

I buy my beans close to roast date from local dealers. I grind them. And I brew each individual cup for myself. I love it. Most people think that coffee is just a simple cup with milk and sugar, but it's so much more complex than that. Love this video!!!!

    I hope you pay attention to how the flavor changes over that first 10 days from roast date. Depending on the roast, chemical reaction continue for up to 2 weeks after roast (thus the off gassing and increase in container pressure if you keep them in a sealed jar or tupperware), with the "flavor peak" (subjective) generally 3-8 days after roast. It's fun to play with a standard cupping method each day to try and notice changes in the flavor development, and then try something different for the second cup.

    Exactly. It's an art. And it's magical. Every different bean has different magical qualities.. Coffee goes stale after about 10 days after roasting it. So it's really important to grind freshly roasted beans. I was told that Starbucks actually roasts their own beans so it's always fresh..

    1. Natural in comparison to - Washed is -> more sweet, less intense, creamier 2. High (African countries) - Low attitude (Starbucks/Indonesia)-> more fruity acidic, creamier, cancels bitterness 3. Stronger - Mild roast -> carmalized, chocolaty, bitterly but not overwhelming, savoury, but further from the bean taste 4. French press - thicker. ,texture, fullbodyness -vs. Quimex (idk) more clarity, more flavour, how the taste changes

    Your remark is fantastic. I plan to launch my own KZread channel dedicated to health-related issues. Food intake, exercise, the impact of harmful mood behaviors on our health, and so forth. It would be extremely helpful if you could take a minute to complete my questionnaire. Before I begin, I need to finish some medical research, and your short written contribution will be very welcomed. If you have a moment, please let me know.

    Very clear. I actually live in Indonesia and the coffee is very diverse here depending on the island that it is from. Wonderful variety. Sipping on an Arabica blend from the hills in the north Bali region of Singaraja right now and enjoying it's richness.

    I’ve been lucky enough to visit several Kona coffee farms in Hawaii. One of the things that’s unique about their coffee is it’s all handpicked so they only use ripe red cherries. It’s an exceedingly high quality, smooth cup and is worth the high price. The best way to buy it is direct from the farm online so you know it’s fresh! Ka’u coffee is also excellent. I like to prepare it in a pour over.

    Hi Chandler, Thank you so much for sharing all this knowledge about coffee, I genuinely feel much more educated now. Can you also maybe present your view on the after effect of each kind of roast.? I normally try to avoid the dark roast because it leaves my mouth dry and makes me feel really thirsty. Also, how is freshly brewed different from expresso? I find an americano much smoother than a freshly brewed coffee at Starbucks and also drinking freshly brewed gives me a rush and wears me down pretty quick, whereas, the americano has no such after effects and keep me going nice and smooth. Any thoughts on that? Thank you in advance!

    If you liked this video, you may also want to know that There are advantages and disadvantages to consuming coffee. One population study on 4 million international individuals found that daily, consistent coffee consumption led to 8-28% reduction in all-cause mortality (prevention of chronic disease)! On the flip side, too much coffee can result in negative side effects, such as headaches, ear ringing, nausea, vomiting, and gastric distress.

    I have tried many coffees in the US and I have tried many coffee traveling to Central, South America and Africa and all those coffee are really bitter and apparently it is because of the type of coffee they have and specially because of the process of getting the final dry coffee bean. The only coffee that was perfect in flavor, smell, bold, rich and not bitter was the Colombian Coffee and I learned why. Colombian coffee has a very precise process where they use clean water, they pick only the best red coffee beans , and most of the coffee plants are Arabica coffee plans. Really the best coffee.( I am not Colombian)

    Excellent video, very informative! 5:39 just a small correction, the atmosphere composition of 21% O2 does not actually change. Higher altitude simply means, a lower differential air pressure so the lungs need to work harder getting the same flow rate.

    OMG ,YOU EXPLAINED EVERYTHING TO ME MAN , Because when i moved to the USA i was a kid and noticed that filtered and dark roasted coffee are weird for me back then but now i get it “The total emerging” coffee is the way we drink it back in 🇾🇪 YEMEN The production process for Yemen Coffee beans has stayed the same for over 500 years. Small family farms plant on terraced fields carved into the Yemen landscape. The coffee plants are raised in the old way, without any use of chemicals. Once the fruit, referred to as “cherries” are ripe, they are hand-picked. The beans are not removed from the fruit, but dry-processed together. The fruit goes through a special drying period in caverns, and in some cases, on rooftops .... thanks

    Great video! I would recommend you include where coffee originated, what species of beans exists (e.g. arabica vs robusta), and also to include "Cold Brew" as an option as well. More than French Press, I would say Cold Brew is the diametric opposite of conventional brewed coffee.
