That sucks. What’s wrong with the coffee?

Good question. The brew always has a bit of a different taste to it and I’m trying to modify my sugar and cream methods so that I add those first… and then pour in the coffee to auto-mix.

There are two results of this:
1) I don’t have to use a stirring thing. (that’s why I’m doing this in the first place - to reduce my stirrer consumption)
2) I haven’t figured out my coffee/sugar/cream proportions yet.

This morning those two variables yielded pretty crappy coffee.

Put the sugar in the cup before the coffee. The heat of the coffee and the turbulence created by pouring it into an empty will dissolve the sugar.

You can put the sugar in the cup, then add about half an inch of hot coffee and swirl it for about 20 seconds or until melted, then add more coffee, some cream, swirl and top it off.

I do this sometimes when I’m melting sugar in espresso

Does your sugar come in packets, or from a spout?

I tend to do a combination of Ryan’s and Ruth’s methods, I add sugar and cream to the cup swirling together dissolving some sugar, then adding the coffee. My only problem is our sugar is from a spout so it is not well metered…

Man, maybe if I told you that 99% of my weekend consisted of reading words like this :Нет никаких участков, которые я могу фактически найти, но это собирается объяснять мой пункт, только прекрасный. You’ll feel better.
