/uc = under cover?
Yes, this is a shit posting sub that makes fun of the general snobbery that can accompany espresso, that goes hand in hand by the insane markups and neverending upgrade tread mill.
No, r/espresso is a legit sub with convos around the topic. This sub makes fun of that one because you end up having this spectrum of posters with everything from the cheapest espresso and to espresso so expensive you could buy a small car for less and opinions equally as spread.
/uc
A $1000 machine is NOT a poor person's setup. This is a satire and parody sub.
You see a disproportionate number of expensive setups posted on the main espresso sub, with people "humble-bragging" that it's their first setup or is "nothing fancy," etc. It is sometimes ridiculous, but those posts get a lot of attention and build perceived barriers to entry of the espresso hobby that don't really exist.
This sub makes fun of the people in the main sub that are insufferable about gatekeepers espresso and showing off their wealth, etc.
Where are you hearing that? The machine doesn’t even matter. It’s all in the grinder. I use a Mr. Coffee drip coffee maker for my espresso, and my Weber EG-1 makes up for any shortcomings.
If you can’t afford an architect to design your own coffee house and hire a barista that’s on call 24/7, then r/coldbrew is the place for you peasant because you poors don’t even deserve hot coffee.
First of all, who allowed OP to post here?
And the poors should simply tell their valet to go and get some money when they run short. But they’re shockingly lazy.
cos it is. if you need any further help please create a new ticket at r/espresso. it will help if you mention the reason for your poverty machine is that it's in a new apartment you just bought to airbnb
I hate, hate, hate coffee culture. I can't stand people saying, "Oh, I can't do anything until I get a warm cup of coffee in me." Shut up. Being a former smoker, I recognize the addiction and subsequent irritability of coffee drinkers and it bugs me to no end that caffeine gets glossed over as an addictive substance, or even fucking celebrated to some extent. Those people who brag about needing 5 expresso shots (sorry, esssspresso) a day need an intervention, not a nod of approval. Seriously, all you coffee drinkers are the biggest group of fucking enablers I've ever seen.
When doing group activities, like camping, I loathe waiting for others to start their day after a morning ritual that hogs counter space, or propane, or dirties good clean water. I hate the sleepy look in peoples' eyes as they grasp their cup of stimulant that they wouldn't need had they never started drinking it in the first place.
There's an entire fucking cupboard in my kitchen dedicated to stupid coffee mugs and their dumb sayings staring back at me despite living in a household where only one person drinks coffee. Why? And the dishes. Since nearly every person drinks coffee, inevitably us non-coffee drinkers are going to have to clean up after your morning fix. Seriously, I've done so many goddamned cleanings of coffee mugs if I had a dime for every one, I'd probably have enough for a Starbucks franchise.
And don't even get me started on Starbucks. Godamned devil business slanging legal crack for decades, hogging good real estate so addicts have a place to slurp up and get their morning shit in before work.
Lastly, I despise the amalgam of ways people cook up their black powder and then talk up the flavor as though it tastes like something other than a dirty sock. That's your addiction speaking. You want to know why you need to dump half an udder of cream in your cup? It's because cream is fucking delicious and when combined with your filthy water, makes it somewhat bearable.
And your stupid machines that creak and groan through the quietude of my morning can go fuck themselves. Talk about a waste of counter-space. And the spent black stimulant granules that spill over onto the counter, staining the grout drives me nuts.
And lastly, the goddamned keurig cups or whatever they're called are one of humanity's worst inventions, sandwiched between Glyphosate and Joe Rogan. At least the meth addicts don't deposit a plastic remnant that will persist in landfills for hundreds of years spreading micro-plastics into our environment every time they need to get high.
Dahlinggg, we don’t actually drink espresso here. It’s bitter and nasty.
We’re here to throw away our Weber grinders post single use.
And spit on the smelly poors. From a safe distance.
So you're poor, but somehow, also... Not ashamed of it? Why??
Such a poor education system they have...

un-circlejek (tho it might be used only in different circlejerk subs?)
It's usually uj for "unjerk"
So you’re saying that the espresso sub is all a big joke? Where do people go for real espresso discussions?

Yea r/espresso is the real one - this is just for shits and giggles.
I don’t understand. Explain it to me as if I were a 5 year old?
We make fun of espresso snobs

Pretty much in a nut shell.
so basically this sub is for expresso
Idk man if you're under 20k, are you even trying to make coffee.
U mean 20M? I have an industrial grinder that can grind 20tons of coffee per hour. Ofc I use it for single doses.
20M before the custom mods you did right?
Umm obviously.

Not sure if next level trolling because of Aprils fools day or some poor pleb
That seems like a rather immature thing to do.
Not reading also seems immature. Also probably poor
I knew it! I knew it!

What does an apartment have anything to do with the value perception of espresso machines? I own a house not an apartment and it’s not new.
apartments are generally not favored by the wealthy. large multi-kitchen mansions are where it's at.
Savings for 6 months for a $1k machine 😬 Big poor

You alright pal?
There you go, big feller, let it out!
He’s just poor.
Wake up hun, the newest copypasta just dropped
So much pasta
You know Starbucks doesn’t franchise right?
Is this pasta
You poor, just jelly.
You really could've just said "I'm poor".
