E: This thread made consuming this impostor so much more enjoyable. Thank you!
Are you suggesting it's not espresso since the stick doesn't stand up on its own?

I Ihink it's more that you can continue to see the stick well below the submersion point. No espresso I've ever seen is thick enough to make a stirrer stand up, turkish is the thickest ive encountered and it wouldn't be able to, but I wouldn't consider something that looks as weak as this image espresso either. This is what fairly weak coffee looks like.

I suspect this was made by mixing "espresso syrup" and hot water.
5 0 ReplyIt actually came out of an espresso machine. A large ass, commercial machine. That's why I was so shocked.
2 0 ReplyWhat kind of machine? A good machine will produce a good espresso. Maybe it's a supermarket automatic coffee machine?
