The guy who downvoted this post probably adds butter to his coffee. lol

[-] chetradley@lemm.ee 10 points 1 day ago

Reminds me of that olive oil coffee Starbucks was selling that caused people to shit their pants.

[-] syreus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Bulletproof coffee works well to clean you out and if you are on the Keto diet it's a decent pick.

[-] JennyLaFae 36 points 2 days ago

It's actually not bad, you're basically replacing the creamer. Especially if you're doing keto or have other dietary restrictions. Coconut or MCT oil can work as a non-dairy replacement and is a main ingredient in non-dairy creamers already.

Good coffee is important, and also only really works if you already like it black or light cream & sugar.

Anyone curious, try adding a pinch of salt to your regular coffee

[-] shiftymccool@programming.dev 23 points 2 days ago

If you need to add a pinch of salt, get better coffee

[-] CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 days ago

Eh, most people burn their coffee or get shitty coffee. Salt helps enhance the coffee profile and decrease the bitterness that comes out when coffee is over brewed.

The number of people who don't know how to properly make coffee drives me nuts.

Fucking lol.

[-] Ajen@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

They're saying it helps badly roasted/brewed coffee, not that it's the proper way to make coffee.

I think it's more of a tip for people who don't have a choice. Coffee isn't exclusively consumed for the taste.

Why not just drink it black then? To be fair, creamer isn't a thing where I'm from.

I will never get countries who use creamer. They're choosing the objectively worst way to have coffee

[-] neatobuilds@lemmy.today 5 points 1 day ago

Aren't you supposed to use ghee not just regular butter. My friend gave me some ghee for coffee and I tried it, it wasn't bad but I didn't want to have a heart attack so I didn't use the rest. Now I use ghee for cooking to try it out and every time I smell it I want coffee or popcorn

[-] JennyLaFae 5 points 1 day ago

I remember the "bulletproof coffee" trend being grass fed butter, but I could be wrong. Either way I doubt there's any health benefits other than it not being a starbucks milkshake.

[-] neatobuilds@lemmy.today 3 points 1 day ago

oh yeah I looked up bullet proof coffee and that is what he gave me, it is grass fed ghee lol

[-] JennyLaFae 3 points 1 day ago

Lmao, ghee AND mct.

[-] cortex7979@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

also helps raising LDL cholesterol👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[-] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

try adding a pinch of salt to your regular coffee

This literally takes away one of coffee's biggest flavor enhancers which is its slightly bitter taste. If you do this, you might as well be drinking fucking tea.

People are not getting vaccinated because of one simple reason, they are fucking idiots!

[-] neatobuilds@lemmy.today 15 points 1 day ago

I think the part where the coffee is ice cold and doesn't melt butter is probably where the problems started, butter neither made it better or worse at that point

[-] markovs_gun@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

I have tried this out because I got a bit obsessed with learning how to make every coffee drink during the pandemic. The way I did it was a double shot of espresso, a decently sized pat of good quality unsalted butter, and a little bit of hot water. The reasoning was that the butter would accentuate the naturally occurring oils of the espresso and lead to a richer crema on the resulting americano which was true. I thought it was actually pretty good that way, but I also love coffee in any form. It also wasn't something I'd go out of my way to drink again. I also imagine this would do some bad things to your intestines if you drank this every day. If you want a delicious buttery coffee, a good quality whole fat milk is a much better option. As for health claims, I think it's kind of insane that anyone says drinking literal butter could possibly be good for you, and even more insane that people believe it. It feels like an over-reaction to anti-fat propaganda from the sugar lobby where we went from "Maybe eating some fat in your diet isn't a bad thing" to "YOU MUST EAT AS MUCH FAT AND OIL AS HUMANLY POSSIBLE."

[-] ThisIsAManWhoKnowsHowToGling@lemmy.dbzer0.com 14 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Tried this. It tasted god-awful. Personally, I swear by orange juice in my coffee.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

I don't know if you are joking but fresh orange juice, strong cold brew, and fizzy water is really good. I thought it would be awful but it's delicious.

Chocomel here

[-] musubibreakfast@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

Amateur move, I just throw my whole breakfast in my coffee.

I wish I could show you the weird shit ive seen my dad try with his coffee, but I think overall the best thing Ive seen is scrambled eggs in black coffee. Is it insane? Yes. Did it taste like shit? Also yes.

[-] Noel_Skum@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

I see people add milk, I see people add cream - is butter that different?

[-] Hozerkiller@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 days ago

Ah yes the keto diet.

[-] OpenPassageways@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

I used to do this because it was supposedly better than sugary creamers. You're supposed to use a little blender to whip it up though, then it actually tastes super good.

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Adding some coarse salt to heavy cream and dropping in an immersion blender makes a whipped butter that goes well in the coffee and on toast

[-] Rubanski@lemm.ee 11 points 2 days ago

Adding butter to ramen is amazing

[-] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago

Okay but the last time I checked that wasn't the type of coffee. 🫤

[-] ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 17 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Pro-tip: replace the water in your instant ramen with coffee to make it taste like shit.

[-] Rubanski@lemm.ee 7 points 2 days ago

Just giving butter related tips

Lather yourself with it and sun bathe on your roof

[-] PancakesCantKillMe@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

I smell chicken….

Three words... Butter Coffee Enema

[-] thermal_shock@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Don't tempt me with a good time

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

LPT: add a lemon peel and honey to any coffee incl instant and it will taste gourmet. Add condensed milk if you're feeling fancy. This is what I do for fieldwork coffee. I learned this off a good Brazilian friend, never went back. I always do at least the peel now, it neutralises the acids.

My arthritis got fucked watching this video

[-] confusedbytheBasics@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I enjoy a buttery coffee on a blue moon. Not for health reasons. I just like it. What's the arthritis risk though?

Edit: Google told me apparently some people's arthritis is worsened by saturated fat. TDIL

I completely agree, but there's an exception: weed butter.

[-] pelya@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Wow, I'll try that tomorrow
