I wonder how is it possible.

I love my mother's coffee, that's a true fact. But why can't my coffee taste like hers? Srsly, I make good coffee, but hers taste like freaking Ambrosia.

I've used the same measures, and ingredients, and still doesn't have the same taste. I can not describe it. And no, she doesn't put anything else beside the sugar... hmmmm... sugar.

Nevermind.

I won't give up! XO

Much, love :heart:.

Are you both using the same type of coffee pot and the same water source?

I've just completely given up on trying to make espresso. Now I just spend $2 a day on coffee. So long as I don't buy lunch, too, it doesn't get too expensive. ^^;

:iconchaoharte:
Colormist is right, It might be the water source. Or maybe you're too technical with your ingredients. Not enough freedom and dare I say it: LOVE in the mix.

Yeah, we both use the same everything. We make coffee the traditional way; not instant, or from coffee machines. We use this type of coffee makers [link] (the same appliance but a bit different model).

My coffee it's good, but I wish it could taste like hers. Trust me I've already tried everything. T.T.

She said it's just normal coffee, and that she likes mine better. But I have to differ, it might be normal coffee, but she makes a very odd and perfect balance, not too strong or too light, perfectly sweetened; not bitter nor too sweet. A Mug of Heaven XD.

I have no idea how to make expresso, I googled and seems a bit complicated for me XD.

I already responded her with a long comment. I'm not trying to compete with her or anything, but I want to be able to make coffee like that when she's not here. I just drink coffee in the morning, the rest of the day I drink tea (I love coffee but don't always exaggerate).

Worshiping the last drop for the day :iconsparklesplz::iconcoffeeplz::iconiloveyouplz::iconsparklesplz:.

Making espresso requires an espresso machine, actually. It's very strong coffee. You take it in shots, like liquor.

I use a French Press, when there is a French Press to be had, because it's the only way I've had coffee I didn't need to put anything in. And the smooth light roasts of Caribou Coffee are just... guh. I would wire myself quite thoroughly if given a French Press full of their Kenya Roast.

Since we don't have a coffee maker of any sort atm, I've been making do with coca-cola and black tea.

Strong coffee it's good, but I don't think I might like it. Sound like "too bitter" XP.

You know what? That sounds more like it. I wish I could try some of that.
