[–] wscholermann@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) I'm inclined to disagree. There is definitely a difference between an espresso from a proper machine versus instant. If push comes to shove I can tolerate instant but unwillingly. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] RosaliePreistley@aussie.zone 2 points 3 years ago Yeah there's a big difference, I love good coffee, but after years of using a stovetop percolator I changed to instant after a neighbour used to make it for me and I realised it wasn't as bad as I thought. It's not the same and I still enjoy making real coffee when friends visit, but instant is just more convenient and cheaper. Horses for courses, I think people gatekeeping anything is annoying though. permalink fedilink source parent
