All excellent observations! However, since you don’t have to follow questionable pictogram instructions in order to assemble your coffee, perhaps you don’t get the full IKEA experience.

Same vacuum sealed bags in Greece as well for filter coffee.

My favorite thing about this channel is that Morgan doesn't feel she has to hate on dark roasts to be serious about coffee. I like dark roasts the best, and I still deserve good coffee (and to watch coffee-related videos without being constantly told that my tastes are inferior). My favorite roaster has several dark roasts which they put a lot of care into.

@@rosiebowers1671 exactly! It’s all a matter of opinion :)

I appreciate james hoffman's persona in that regard too - he breaks down why things are done a certain way, shows how he compares it and often mentions how he's playing with stupidly expensive kit by virtue of being a coffee youtuber rather than it being a need for good coffee (maybe, sure, a 'need' if you#re a specia;ist or connoseur wanting to accentuate specific parts of different beans, grinds and roasts, but not essential to make a good cup

Generally, it’s sold just loosely packed in bags! Sometimes it’ll be vacuum sealed but it’s not super common to get bags like this with just a paper wrapping

I was about to ask the same question, because for me(also from Germany) this is the only form I know ground coffee is packaged. But I also just noticed that the ground coffee I get from stores like TKMaxx(which aren't from Germany) aren't vaccum sealed as well. They even have some sort of vent to smell the coffee... interesting difference

Same here in the Netherlands, vacuum sealed

more expensive stuff? just loose in a paper roll top bag, the cheap stuff? plastic coffee can, or metal for like 1 or 2 brands

Here in Brazil we have both the vacuum sealed and the loosely packed ones. At least here, I would say that the vacuum sealed is more of a non-specialty coffee thing since they are probably roasting a lot of coffee and freshness isn't something to be quite expected as you don't know when it will be consumed. On the other hand, the "nicer" coffees that have roasting date and farm info (is farm the right word? lol) probably are expected to be consumed fresher since you're also not mass producing it, so those generally come loosely packed on a smaller bag (150g~250g, against the usual 500g for the vacuum sealed).

Same in Finland! It's rather normal that grounded coffee is vacuum sealed here, it's more rear if it isn't vacuum selaed 😂

those show up here in canada too :) not as common though

I’m going to try to locate the rest of their coffee series, I was disappointed that my IKEA didn’t carry any of the other types!

I think he doesn't want to review coffee beans since he has a conflict of interest there.

7:35 ... can you possibly distort the “hey google” next time... it set mine going too and I jumped out of my skin when my timer went off!

@@davetreadwell 😂😂

He's a coffee roaster, so out of policy he doesn't review coffee beans generally since there's an apparent/perceived conflict of interest there.

Oop 😬 sorry bout that

Same xD

Same haha

@@morgandrinkscoffee mine set a timer for 5 AM tomorrow morning somehow (I'm guessing it's something to do with mine being set in Dutch)! I'd bleep or cut the hotword in the future haha

@@morgandrinkscoffee My anxiety peaked when I heard you say “hey google” then my timer was set

I really love, that coffee in supermarkets is labeled like that in Sweden. I think it refers to how fine it is ground. No such thing in German supermarkets.

I feel bad when I talk over my Google Home, I’ll be completely honest

@@morgandrinkscoffee that's kinda relatable tho since google forcefully has to be nice to you. They couldn't even defend themselves if someone would be harsh to them.. 😂

@@juleker3744 ah... my nephew always tells alexa to "shut up" and it goes beeboop I feel bad for the little echo

MorganDrinksCoffee goddamn you’re too nice

@@rajrishiparmar1362 at this point in life I'm convinced that if we're ever overtaken by a rebellion of the machines it's not going to be Skynet or some super advanced military technology leading it. No, it is going to be the communication devices that are finally fed up with our bullshit. So maybe being nice to your smarthome assistant is going to save your life in the apocalypse lol

Came here to comment this, almost threw it out the window when it wouldn't register my voice 10 times in a row a few weeks ago, and now it reacts to my computer audio. Great.

Judging how solid a thunk the bag made when it got knocked over, it seems like it could do some damage

Take apart some of the furniture, turn it into a mini trebuchet, and then launch the coffee bricks at the assailant from 300 meters away! You even get all the screws and alan keys to make it, plus extra parts to confuse you!

I'd love to watch that lol

@@raccoonking7566 Let's have Tom Scott and James Hoffmann to collab again to make this happen.

a lot easier to pack

In Canada as well

thank u, it’s a dried garlic chain and it’s delicious

A coffee Igloo!

Yeah we don't use imperial at all in Sweden

Why does that matter? (Honest question)

@@confusedwhale because we always leave it on! like how will you identify which coffee it is otherwise?

Haha jaa, jag fick panik! 🇸🇪😅

@@annaknuthammar93 eller hur!! Men de har ju en poäng, inte brukar man ha mer än ett paket kaffe öppet åt gången... Hmm

@@MarttuTheMonky haha ja det är ju sant! Kanske är vi som tänker ologiskt😅

I won't argue it'd be better if we standardized. Since she was eyeballing a fill line I'd guess it was ~1000mL of water.

The french press probably said 4 cups on it, and a standard "cup" measurement used in cooking or baking is always the volume of 250ml or 250g of water.

@@ArchitaAdluri Ah, I sense a person who does not have to deal with the reality of American measurement. A standard American kitchen cup measure is equivalent to 48 standard teaspoons, 16 tablespoons, 8 fluid ounces, 1/2 pint, 1/4 Quart, 1/16 gallon or 236.5882 milliliters. Coffee cups are another matter altogether. There is no agreed upon standard. As a unit of measure, a coffee cup is usually in the range 5-6 fluid ounces. In the United States, this seems to be settling down on 5 fluid ounces per coffee cup, but do not expect to walk into a Starbucks and be served 5 ounces of anything. customerservice.starbucks.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3113/~/what-are-the-sizes-of-starbucks-drinks%3F At the liquor store, matters are different. The most common US size for distilled spirits was the fifth, supposedly 1/5 of a gallon. People may still use the term, but the booze business has gone almost entirely metric. A "fifth" bottle in the US now holds 750 ml. This is also the most common size of wine bottle in the US. Other sizes are also often available.

@@markholm7050 i wasnt talking about kitchen cups or Starbucks or liquor... a measuring cup used in cooking or baking is the volume occupied by 250ml of water. If you buy a measuring tablespoon it is 15ml, thats a standard. Go to a store and buy a set of measuring cups and you will see the one marked '1 cup' is 250 ml of water. If you read any american or canadian recipie it will use cups, and that is a standard measurement and not an invitation to use xoffee mugs or starbucks takeout cups as a measuring tool.

@@ArchitaAdluri I am certain you are mistaken. A standard American measuring cup, holds a volume of 236.5882 ml, not 250. A Tablespoon is 14.78676 ml, not 15. A teaspoon is 4.928922 ml, not 5. In cooking, we often get away with approximations, because most cooking does not demand high precision. As an example, I have a PYREX brand, glass measuring cup made, back in the good old days, by the Corning Glass company. Corning made both domestic and scientific glassware and was well aware of volume calibrations. This measuring cup is labeled in cup, fluid ounce and milliliter units. The 250 ml line is clearly higher than the 1 cup/8 fl oz line. The question of coffee volume measurement is, as I described, even more confused than kitchen measurement.

Hi! Thank you! :’)

IM SORRY

@@morgandrinkscoffee no it's funny. Keep up the great channel.
