1) Araku coffee (best morning coffee at home)
2) Blue tokai (for weekends)
3) Sleepy owl coffee (best thing to take to office)
4) Devi (I like the different flavours for a change)
5) Flying squirrel (deserves to be in top 5)
Whatβs your favourite one? Why?
Have recently started drinking Davidoff Intense 57. Can't go back to Nescafe ever.
Have tried Rage Coffee in the past. Nothing to rage about there. It was pretty average.
I'd love to hear recommendations from others :D
Brands like Continental (Speciale) and Malabar are pretty good at getting that Udupi filter coffee flavour.
Why don't more people prefer chicory? Is it just eliteness or don't people actually like it?
Blue tokai? Sure. Best quality.
Davidoff made extra strong with office kettle for the post lunch pick-me-up.
Cothas filter at home in the evening when you want caffeine but nothing that'll keep you up at night.
Sleepy owl packaged cold brew for diligence report nights as a meal replacement that can also keep you going.
You, are a true kaapi person.
However, Nestle as a company may die.
I hear good things about Tulum Coffee Roasters (Mumbai). I find Quick Brown Fox overrated! Devans isnβt even in the same league as any of these, sadly. I wouldnβt recommend Devans. Bili Hu - only for Monsooned Malabar and nothing else!
For those of you who seek that fine balance between value (for money) and taste - Blue Tokai, without a doubt. Their 1Kg packs last me ~3 weeks and are competitively priced (wipe out the competition, actually).
For those of you who are new to this and want to be introduced two new coffees periodically, try subscribing from ΔrΔmse. You can write to them at brew@aramse.coffee. They also have a YouTube and Instagram page that has all kinds of coffee tips and trivia.
Also, please purchase a good grinder. Makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE. Donβt be cheap, buying the Hario. Go for the Comandante Grinder instead, and thank me later! ;)
Unmatched with Red Clix. The 1zpresso J Max is a distant number 2 (good for espresso).
I drink the decoction after filtering. Yeah I know, it maybe considered uncouth, but thats what works best for me during crunch times.
Also, black coffee from CCD machine in office with sugar is good enough, when there is no other option around.
Far as brands go, I have only tried something called Classic Coffee's Filter grinds, its good enough, otherwise i buy from no name shops usually located in a Major Port town.
They maintain a list of coffee roasters. Link here: https://www.indiacbc.club/coffee-roasters
