Welcome to Coffee Conversation Central, a curation compilation of comments from our recent Coffee Conversation event that was held here at Cinnamon Cup Coffee, to boost interaction amongst authors.
A fun topic was presented, to get authors thinking about their favourite elixir of life - coffee.
Is there a right way or a wrong way to drink coffee?
Well, here are some of the best thought-provoking responses.
@grindan says Ketchup in Coffee is wrong

I don't think it's right to judge others when they aren't hurting anyone. Let people live their lives, I say! At times though, this can be tested. KETCHUP? IN COFFEE? It's wrong, I just cannot abide it. Drinking hot coffee over an infant's head while jogging? Unacceptable. I do not recommend drinking coffee while you are being chased by angry wild dogs, nor do I think the proper way to take coffee is while skydiving.
@belkisa758 says there is no specific way to drink coffee
All that is needed are the necessary utensils to prepare it. My utensils are traditional but I still appreciate them and they make me feel happy. For now, I still live in the city, but I would enjoy my coffee more if I lived in the countryside. I love nature, I love mornings in the country, and I love a cup of coffee admiring the sunrise. The taste of food and drink in this kind of environment changes everything.
@simplifylife says there are of course right and wrong ways to drink coffee...what are we.? Savages?!! Jeez!
But, who am I to judge or impose my ideologies on those innocent souls enjoying their coffee with a buttload of sugar and syrup! (yikes!) little to no sugar is always preferable...You should definitely "feel" the swag shoved into you when you have that beautiful vintage cup with your poison in it - and that automatically projects out of you. let's face it, drinking coffee is all about enjoying oneself and not worrying about right and wrong and rules! Drinking coffee is freeing yourself from the binds of this robotic world, for a while at least.
@mdosev says everybody has its right way to drink his coffee.
The right way will be only in your head and the only thing that you have to do is drink your coffee with a lot of joy and happiness. For me, it will typically be either espresso or filter, and if I have more bitterness in my cup, I’ll tune the preparation act a bit, to balance my coffee. No sugar, no milk!
@chacald.dcymt says let the coffee bring back memories of special moments.
The right way to drink coffee is to sit down and enjoy a delicious cup of coffee and let the taste and smell remind you of wonderful moments from your childhood. When I arrived in Cuba, I found that everyone had greca coffee pots. A coffee maker that I do not know how to use seems simple but the truth is that I have never been able to make coffee on this device. And the coffee that resulted from this coffee maker is so dark that I could not enjoy it. I missed the coffee "guayoyo" from my country that is made with a cloth bag that we call coladera.
@coquicoin says to drink instant coffee, yikes!
I am not the one to judge the taste of others when it comes to drinking coffee. I like coffee black and without sugar, but who am I to say to those people who like to add a spoonful of sugar to their coffee that this is wrong? But there is always a but. If something seems wrong to me when drinking coffee. It is to drink instant coffee, yikes! That's not drinking coffee in my opinion. It doesn't matter what method you use, whether it's a coffee maker, a Greka, a cloth filter, or a French press, but you have to brew the coffee. And don't do something like this.
@itsostylish says the wrong way to drink coffee is not to drink it at all
Imagine a coffee-less existence. Imagine that! There are those, I’m told, that have never experienced the sublime pleasure of coffee. There are things in this world that are incomprehensible, right? No coffee is equivalent to martyrdom, to hell on earth and all the dire stories of fire and brimstones. My only advice is, dear peeps, enjoy your coffee and hold pity in your hearts for those less fortunate who’ve yet to discover bliss.
@nidabyzt says drinking coffee is a pleasure for some people and a necessity for others
For me, coffee is a necessity. It's like a vitamin supplement that you need to take every day. Therefore, the right way to drink coffee is without sugar and artificial cream. Coffee with sugar and cream is not coffee in my opinion, it is a COFFEE AROMA DRINK! Because the flavour of the coffee is suppressed.
@liseth.zamora says a wrong way to drink coffee is to drink it in a hurry, without being able to taste it thoroughly
The world is as diverse and different as the tastes of each person; we may even crave different types of coffee at different times of the day. In the mornings I require a strong cup of coffee with my breakfast; on afternoons, I always like to accompany it with milk, sweet bread or cookies, it is a classic Venezuelan snack. The special coffee to pamper me is coffee with cinnamon.
This was a fun and productive event for the community, as the authors showed a considerable amount of pride and effort in sharing their thoughts.
