I feel under represented
That’s because you’re clearly a BSD user
This
True. Very classy, kinda annoying and also fancy. Kinda complex but simple concept behind it.
You have to repeatedly clean up the mess but its also rather easy to shake out. So semi automatic updates.
The moka pot design is small, efficient, and doesn’t scale. So some flavor of embedded distro?
It scales great actually. Have you never seen one of those mini pots that only make enough for one small cup?
bam! this is what i came here for. love my mokapot!
I feel like an idiot for taking so long to get one. After i brought it, a friend regifted me a milk frother. Zap the milk for 30 seconds and whip and you’ve got a barista drink at home.
Couldn’t really make it work for me, gas stove and a moka pot seems too finicky. So I just do pourover
I did use it on a gas stove (brought it with me when was on vacations at my parents lol) and totally works
I think yours specifically might have a design issue
I doubt it. The moka pot in general is finicky. Unless you put milk or something into the coffee I find it rather harsh and I don’t like milk in coffee.
This is 100 % a matter of technique, I can make a good cup of coffee with it. I just need to dial in grind and ratios right, but even then it’s hard to control the temperature. By the time I go to that sputering hissy phase it becomes harsh and very bitter.
In general it’s hard for me to find the sweet spot between battery acid and coal juice with a moka pot. Pourover is much more forgiving and consistent.
Huh! we definitely don’t have the same taste, as I only ever drink coffee with milk, and as such i don’t care much about the exact taste that comes out of moka pot
Thanks for you feedback!
I use a Kerrigan, but I’m a debian guy.
Ok, what OS do I need?
Android? On-the-go and everything is boxed. Still only plastic.
Windows Subsystem for Linux
This response is a hate crime
it’s like the OS version of the banana & nutella pizza
Red Hat enterprise Linux?
As a DIYer Linux from Scratch obviously.
Ew it’s Netware
MacOS is Starbucks.
expensive coffee that tastes terrible!
all of these are valid options for making coffe.
but what distro is this?
Slackware probably.
This is what I use. I just downloaded Mint Cinnamon yesterday. Not sure if that means anything.
I’m a Mint Cinnamon user, and to me, Mint Cinnamon is a typical drip machine with a built in timer and some nice extra features. It’s a bit fancier than Debian but still simple and reliable to use.
A french press I think represents Pop!_OS.
i was about to say linux mint as well. dump some coffe in, some water, press it down and off you go!
non-proprietary and very reliable.

Nixos? Lol maybe that’s aeropress tho
No matter what this is but its truly based.
Probably.
OpenSUSE Thumbleweed?
i drink instant coffee because i just dont care anymore.
chromebook user
Chromebook is paying for coffee at a coffee shop.
No because then you might get decent coffee sometimes. Chromebook is getting coffee from a 7/11.
Chromebook is the coffee from the coffee machine in my university, which no one ever uses, and no one is certain has ever been cleaned
US or Japan 7/11? I’m pretty sure they’re different grades of coffee.
Nah, Starbucks is MacOS.
It’s more expensive than it needs to be, but it looks really pretty, and fundamentally it’s still coffee, just like MacOS is Unix-based under the hood.
A chromebook is more like a can of coke. It’s caffeinated, has mass-market appeal, but nobody’s going to be spending hours talking about just how great their can of coke is vs. someone else’s can of coke. A high-end chromebook is maybe a glass bottle of Mexican Coke.
Instant coffee is windows, but you pirated it and disabled automatic updates. Cheap, kinda shitty, but it gets the job done.
Torvalds eating raw coffee beans straight from the can
Stallman prefers to refer to it as Coffee + Creamer.
RMS would never touch Java.
Stallman dips his toe into the coffee before he drinks it
Slackware: Start by planting your own coffee plants…
Gentoo: do you want to use soil?
Nah, that’s LFS
What? Slackware has a menu-driven installer that sets up a usable system out of the box that comes with all the bells and whistles.
Just don’t try to change anything.Oh, and the bells and whistles are powered by a steam engine, so you better know your way around ancient tech to use them.
If you’ve used an espresso machine you will know that every single small change, even new fresh beans, fucks up the setup and you have to dial everything again, so I think it fits better with another one. I use arch btw.
OMG, i was right!!!
Turkish coffee pot: works with literally any source of heat if you know what you’re doing.
NetBSD.
In the army, when on sentry - no light, no noise, no fire - we’d open the pack of instant, swish it around with a mouthful of water, swallow through the regret. Not an LFS user, though.
Man, you’d think they issue caffeine pills for those situations …
Air force prescribes amphetamines for pilots doing really long bomb runs, so there’s that.
I’d say Knoppix for that. You’re not really doing this for your daily driver, you’re just dealing with an urgent need to get you through your current predicament
Shit. I can feel that and I was never in the army.
I do it the Arch way. I don’t use Arch, btw

It does not recommend a coffee prep method for Tumbleweed and I really need some caffeine. Please help. Quick.
Cocaine. Stay rolling
Sure. As long as Suse keeps releasing :)
Damn, got me. Debian user, been using a basic Cuisinart bean to cup for years.
The heating element broke in my original machine earlier this year. Bought a used one of the exact same model with a broken water reservoir cover and carafe lid then transplanted those parts from my old machine.
Plan to use Debian unless it stops being developed or I die. Plan to use my Thinkpad until it dies. Also plan to use that same model of bean to cup machine unless I can’t find replacements when they inevitably die.
People sleep on the Cuisinart automagical machines a lot, and tbh I prefer the coffee from French Press or Aeropress, but… When it’s zero dark thirty and you aren’t fully awake yet that robot coffee magician is your best friend in the world.
Yup, I get out of bed and stumble to the kitchen to pour myself a cup of ambition that’s already pre-made for me.
Is it the best tasting coffee in the world? No. Does it wake me the hell up super fast and clean out the pipes? Oh you bet it does.
I don’t drink coffee… From what I can tell from this thread, I should be Amish
I dont drink coffeee… What distro am I?
Void Linux
linux mint, its just a pitcher filled with whatever you do drink, dont ask me how it got in the pitcher
Devuan.
Apple if you drink energy drinks, Windows if you drink tea.
FreeBSD if you don’t drink caffeine.
I would have thought Apple if you exclusively get your coffee from Starbucks.
Mt Dew for Windows
I don’t drink energy drinks, or tea, and I do occasionally drink caffeine, just not coffee.
Then you must be iOS only.
I don’t think I’ve ever even touched an apple device… not at least since Apple IIs in school.
