I'm using Suzuki coffee for cold brew. It is decent and cheap. Most importantly, it is roasted in sg

My coffee setup at home:


You need the right grinder/grind settings, and water at specific temperature to bring out the flavor of the beans. No point getting good beans but not brewed properly.

Personally I like African beans of light to medium roast.

I order direct from a farmer in ChiangMai highlands

can roast to your preference

or they can roast combi and you can mix and blend yourself

best in my opinion since paying for quality Arabica

Drink too much of Kopitiam sock coffee no good for health, too much oils in the coffee leow.
Oil form the crema.
There's nothing essentially bad about the oil.
No oil, no crema, no body, no espresso.

Try telling the barista to do an espresso with light roast from a coffee that had degassed fully. They can't do it with standard 7g-8g for a single because it's too thin, some hipster cafes even put 22g to pull a single to compensate for the lack of oil. So consumption of whatever substance in it is 3x.

Italians had been drinking oily dark roast coffee, almost the same as what's consumed in SEA. Also loaded with caffeine with robusta, and Italians are currently among the longest lived amdk.


For filter I don't use the sock or paper though, I think it absorbs the oil which gives me a weak coffee with alot of flavours removed. For coffee socks, even worse, the rancid oil retained on it will pass on to the next cup, giving it a dirty taste.
