Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Butter in Coffee

Every morning. Not just a little pat sized chunk but a double or triple sized pat.

Just like the taste.

Salted Kirkland butter.

Yeah this is a real convo not just a wee polling.

I saw butter in coffee and tea in Vietnam. Wondered about it...kinda maybe thought it was something left over from the days when refrigeration was scarce, and milk didn't keep...whereas butter if kept cool might last a long time. ???

If I wanted fat, I'd just have a slice of bacon or some nuts with my coffee. I've not tried the butter thing, but I don't generally like anything in my coffee.

One thing I've started doing is having mixed 40/60 regular and decaf in the morning so I can drink a bit more coffee without too much of a jolt. Then I'll have a "real" cup of coffee later in the morning and it staves off my desire to eat lunch too early. Caffeine is generally minimized afterwards.

No butter, honey.

I like my coffee like I like my women. Hot and black.

1 pat of butter (1"x1"x1/3") averages 36 calories.

2 tsbp of half & half averages 40 calories.

1 tsbp of heavy cream is 50 calories.

I'd stick with what she likes, I can cut 4-14 calories per cup elsewhere. If you like butter in your coffee use it, but if you don't cut the calories elsewhere.

I usually use fresh fennel instead

With a good low acid dark roast coffee, no buffering is needed.

My wife reminded me...I have a little butter in my coffee or tea every morning...got in the heroin habit of buying that damned Kerry Gold Irish butter and sousing toasted sourdough bread...then dipping it in the mug. Disgusting looking...looks like the Exxon Valdez oil slick in a mug.

Well, you would know.


You was there when they invented butter.

Well f...k me Jim..Thanks...I never thought you would recognize my contributions to the world we live in. Actually, I'm older than that..I had some input on the design of the cow, Although my design was rejected...I wanted the tits much further forward from the anus.

That would have been a major improvement!

I’ve tried butter…didn’t see the need to do it twice. I use heavy cream daily and occasionally a little coconut oil if I’m going to skip lunch.

Keeps me looking hot in my jeans.

And bitter.

NO

But butter on my Bob's Red Mill Organic steel cut oats, along with some grass fed whole milk, cream on top, non-homogenized yogurt and some of Dannyl's maple surple and a bit of cinammum is reeeeel goood. Oh yeah, I forgot about the raisins and craisins in there too.

Butter in coffeey is just.....................weird.

So flintlocke, you older or younger than Ingwe. Or just born on the other side of the globe at the same time?

Well your gay, so....

Fennel aversion reference notwithstanding.

Be a real man, like me & use cilantro !!

Just give me a cup of melted butter to drink. I don't care for coffee.
