My OP had no smugness whatsoever. I am only smug in response to smugness - are you gonna keep making irrelevant points and nit-picking words like lose vs. loose - your genius is overwhelming me - please stop. My knickers are fine - I am having fun with these knee-jerk responses, that's why I am using skippy and scoopy - they are playful. Try it some time it's great - just like BP coffee.

That sounds good! I will try it!

Warning you, it's quite good! :-)

Raising the Bar -- Hot Toddy & Hot Buttered Rum - Slashfood

Instead of water, I use my favorite hot tea blends.

Shiloh you may simply be an enthusiastic customer and lover of this coffee but from your OP I got a "sales vibe" and found that they have an affiliate program which made me go . Granted I do have an overly-energetic BS and sales pitch detector so I may be way off base.

It does sound somewhat intriguing (and I am something of a coffee snob) so I sent it to my brother, who is an uber coffee snob and scholar and roasts his own beans and has literally thousands of dollars worth of coffee roasting and brewing equipment, to see what he thinks.

I'm always open to new stuff and this sounds perhaps worth a try despite the sort of silly overall message! I'm not savvy enough to tease out what is BS and what may be legit on that site though.

I don't know if I'll try this or not, but I'm amazed at the number of folks saying, essentially, "ewwww butter in coffee" but butter is nothing but cream beaten to a frenzy and the liquids (whey) drained away. If you put cream in your coffee, or at least don't have a problem with others putting cream in their coffee, why is this an issue?

Funny how people will go cuhhrayyyyzee over an unfamiliar idea.

In parts of Asia, tea is served with butter in it. And if you have ever had coffee with cream, that has butterfat in it. Matter of fact, all the non-dairy creamers work hard to reproduce the mouthfeel that butterfat provides.

Like I said earlier - He has some BS stuff on his website and much more stuff that I did not bother to read yet. I am not part of his 'program' or any other for that matter - I did not even know about that. I gave him credit for the recipe that I put-up in the OP - which I don't see how it was in anyway a 'sales vibe.'

He seems overly sensitive to processed foods and is obsessed with purity - I am not so much - I just like the coffee (something that I am picky about since I find most coffee tastes bad) and its boost with the MCT's. He has got a New Age vibe to me - I am leery of alot that stuff. The health issues he cites seem legit.

That's exactly how he got the idea and to start looking into a better cup of coffee after he had given up coffee for five years.

"I start the day with a cup of Bulletproof coffee. I learned about the power of butter at 18,000 feet elevation near Mt. Kailash in Tibet when I staggered into a guest house from the -10 degree weather and was literally rejuvenated by a creamy cup of *** butter tea."



Why is Y.A.K. sensored?

Ok! I never knew that ***, as slang, meant a fat, overweight female.

The Arabs figured out centuries ago that coffee improved cardiovascular stamina and mental awareness along with several other benefits, certainly nothing new.

I will agree wet processes high elevation single source coffee beans are usually the best and on average develop less mycotoxins during the fermentation process.

That being said just got my shipment of Kona peaberry in last week. Now that is some kickass bulletproof coffee.
