Exploring NYC's love affair with coffee in 'Six Degrees of Caffeination'

[@aaronlong6963]

Coffee makes me excited to get out of bed

[@Cupcake-ug4go]

Whyyyy!!! Why spill so much coffee? It was so hard to watch... I felt like jumping in there to wipe everything up.

[@davidrausch7941]

God these people are so pretentious wtf... "it makes me existentially sad" " I have a complicated relationship with coffee" Okay damn y'all are too much😂

[@Niphredyl]

Yeah, the video is well-made and beautifully shot but the people... i like that they say at the end of the video that it is just a cup of coffee. I mean, c'mon, personal rituals are important but it's so overhyped recently. Coffee culture existed for .... centuries, it's part of life for some, or for many, but in this video portrayed as something so insightful, so existential. Ask an Italian ( I know corny, but true, I can testify), or Colombian they won't say any of this, 'cause they have a healthy relaitionship with the holy substance. Recognizing and supporting a quality product or local baristas does not have to have this narrative, it 's just the most natural thing in the world, if you think about it. And, just to clarify - I don't think cupping is wrong or a matcha-frapuccino is wrong, it's all great, and it should be fun, just don't have a whole life-altering philosophy about it. But who am I to judge? Great authors may write about most common, mundane events in an eloquent way... But overall, I agree, it's a BIT too much.

THANK YOU FOR SAYING IT!

[@theninjacow]

Nice touch at the end with the white text showing through on the coffee stain

[@ChristopherBatts]

I wasn't sure throughout the film whether it was just a spoof.

[@susancorgi]

Now i want a cup! Where is my coffee machine..oh there you are.

[@hulqen]

Oh Nowness, how you spoil us with great content!

[@barbart_]

i was drinking coffee when i found this video. youtube makes me freak out sometimes.

[@tfak7298]

Dont spill it in that perfectly edited video. Please don't. We all cringe.

[@FlAw88]

great music.

[@NapaValleyCoffee]

Wonderful film about coffee! Great job!

[@mamaiya]

Well done

[@arthurb8436]

Dude that Moka Pot needs to be cleaned... it’ll taste so bitter, the whole “building character” thing is a myth

[@anettekvam]

Love this video. There’s just something about coffee and everyone has their personal opinion about how they want it. I remember my first visit to a NY coffee shop, it blew my mind how high level the barista was - they really go all in to be the best, as everyone else in NYC

[@AFilmaciones]

I started drinking coffee when I turned 43. I don´t care where it comes from or what it tastes like, I only want it´s cheap rush of energy that I need.

[@oyonggofomocci2078]

No Tea?

[@kerplunka409]

is that LCD Soundsystem's Nancy Wang?

[@xx-ug9hn]

She is drinking out of a DFA mug

[@xoFiroza]

love coffee, this made me happy :)

[@ihsankib]

There is a youtube channel named chefsteps, they also have a couple of videos on coffee that I would recommend you to watch if you like coffee. And overall they make beautiful videos on cooking aswell you will not be dissapointed ;)

[@xoFiroza]

Ihsan Kibar woww I am in love! I watched the no flour carrot cake first, looks so good but I'm so happy I don't have to make it myself haha I'm now making my way though the coffee videos, I'm so going to waste my time watching all of their videos :)) thanx!

[@ihsankib]

No problem. I'm just happy to help, I personally love to cook and love that channel and I'm happy you like it too. But ofc the number 1 channel for me is jamie olivers food tube and sorted food :D

[@xoFiroza]

Sorted is my fave too, especially their songs haha

[@alvaroa.fuentes9064]

Spilling coffee is experiencing limbo

[@parnian2276]

I love love loveee Your videos

[@af4od02]

I’m brewing my morning cup now.

[@lydiarowe491]

Nice..coffee can be friend or foe⭐

[@dandan3521]

wash green coffee beans, preferable Arabica coffee beans, then roast, grind dry ginger with the roasted coffee, add to a clay coffee pot with spring water and boil,... enjoy it thick. ☕️

[@Momo74153]

There is such danger in idolizing such products. I love coffee but I also understand its role in power relations between states and corporations. Remember that some one some where had to be poor and black so that your delicious coffee could end up in your cup. So actually NO, its not just a cup of coffee, its a cup of power.

[@TheTacticalMess]

Motlatsi Khosi That's most of capitalism though.

[@3340steve]

Coffee is the only reason to get out of bed on a work day. I love my brother but he doesn't understand a conscious person doesn't drink instant coffee, I'm sorry, if that is pretense, then sue me.

[@sirpandalistic1359]

0:44 MY OCD!!!!

[@carpenterfamily6198]

I like ‘srooms in me coffee

[@RosaFlora7]

I never really liked coffee, even if you put sugar in it because it has that bitter taste to it. However I do like hot chocolate because it's sweet and does not have that bitter taste.

[@bannor216]

fuck yeah

[@rudolphsturling5236]

coffee gives me the shits! cant drink it

[@marklewis4793]

are you 'drinking'it the right way?

[@3340steve]

Too bad the film was ruined by the soundtrack.

[@MyplayLists4Y2Y]

I don't drink coffee, it's not good for your health, is addictive, and a mental distraction, but this film is well done nonetheless - great job!

[@fullfunk]

wrong coffee is good for your health 2 per day..now the sugar you put on it thats another story... i drink mine straight black with nothing more

[@MyplayLists4Y2Y]

Spoken like a true coffee drinker. It's easy to accept the findings of a study when you have a self interest in a particular outcome, it's called confirmation bias. I don't drink coffee nor do I have anything against it philosophically speaking - I don't have "a horse in the race" as they say, so it doesn't matter to me personally whether coffee is good for you or not which allows to me look at all the research data with an unbiased eye, and the conclusion is clear: it's addictive (no? try going without your coffee for 6 weeks and get back to me), can raise LDL cholesterol levels, blood pressure, cause headaches, increased homocysteine levels in the blood--a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, dehydration, insomnia, increases loss of bone mineral density, over 400 mg of caffeine (found in 4-5 cups of brewed coffee) can cause caffeine intoxication, and the list goes on and on... And please, I'm not interested in people searching www.makemeright.com and posting the "benefits" of coffee, I already know the "pros" and the "cons" and the cons far out weigh the pros. I simply choose to stay away from anything with so many known negative health effects (including dairy, refined sugar, etc.)

[@FloatingPixel]

***** hmm i also thought coffee is healthy. Do you remember the study? :)

[@MyplayLists4Y2Y]

"Studies" - plural - just Google it and numerous sources come up. Look up who conducted the study and who finances them - Non-profits and Universities are not immune to financial influence. Think about it, no one stands to gain from people "not" drinking coffee, but millions of dollars are at stake to get people drinking coffee, so checking the sources of pro-coffee consumption "studies" is particularly vital in finding accurate information.

[@sebastiaoedsonmacedo7950]

So what? This video is totally pointless.
