I'll cop some shit for this one, but coffee baristas.
you put some grounds in a machine, twiddle some nobs and pour milk in a wave pattern
edit: judging by the amount of downvotes ive either pissed off all the Bachelor of Arts grads working as baristas or all the coffee snobs who still think making coffee is some sort of art that can only be done by the most highly trained baristas. Yes, I also love coffee. No, making it is not some sort of complicated thing which is the point of this post (and topic of this thread), and no, I am not disparaging anyone working as a barista (unless they are an Arts grad, sorry) because a job is a job and all jobs deserve respect
Best coffee is anywhere but the US.
From Asia to Africa, all the shops I've visited had good espressos and coffee.
Customer service is also a joke here.
I always wonder what little hell you people live in. There are fan fucking tastic local roasters across the East Coast. It's crazy easy to get day old roasted beans from just about anywhere on the planet here.
It's like the people who make fun of the food and have no clue.
Hope so you not have access to good coffee? Where are you located that you can't get anything good?
The definition of what "good coffee" is vary from place to place. The northeast has absolutely phenomenal American style coffee (focus on drip coffee and long pours), a lot of Europeans are after a really good espresso for €1.5.
