"Every meal comes with free coffee and even sometimes when there is no meal don't ask me how the economy works"
*The waiter pours and pours; you don't think that your coffee cup can possibly be so deep; the waiter laughs and laughs as you look into the bottom of the cup and see infinity*
@bgcarlisle maybe you ordered an espresso or an expresso, instead of "ein Kaffee, bitte"
or maybe, this is a joke, and i should stop trying to understand what's wrong with Berlin
@meena It's a joke
But wow do they like tiny expensive coffees
I ask for "filter coffee"
It is tiny and it costs every Euro
@bgcarlisle you could ask for a "großen filter Kaffee"
it'll be at least double in size, and less than double every euro.
you could also try to get your coffee from a non hipster coffee shop (if such a thing exists in Berlin)
there's just two problems:
it won't taste as good, aaaaand the beans won't be quite as ethically sourced…
@meena @bgcarlisle I don't know about Germany, but in Denmark 7eleven has Fairtrade certified filter coffee for way cheaper than the fancy coffee machines - at least in the 7eleven shop on train stations.
I can't speak to the quality though, I drink coffee despite the taste, not because of it.
@lilletale Since my last toot in this thread I turned 30 and got a coffee machine at home as a present.
And let me tell you, I love my big buckets of filter coffee now! (Way better than anything 7eleven serves - even the expensive fancy coffees)
@zatnosk @lilletale we now have our second filter coffee machine.
on this one, the can is made of metal.
