If you like your coffee black, you may be someone who prefers strong flavours, takes good care of their health, or just wants to drink their coffee the way it’s supposed to be drunk.
At least, that’s according to a new study published in the journal Appetite, which found a correlation between a love of black coffee and sadist or psychopathic tendencies.
The research surveyed more than 1,000 adults, asking them to give their food and flavour preferences. The participants then took a series of personality tests assessing antisocial personality traits, such as sadism, narcissism and psychopathy.
The study, carried out by researchers at the University of Innsbruck, found that a preference for bitter flavours was linked to psychopathic behaviour.
The study missed a key, deciding factor: the coffee that psychopaths drink black is instant.

Meh. If you want to make millennial hipster coffee, you need one of these: Chemex [chemexcoffeemaker.com].
Actually, after the old coffee maker gave up the ghost I got one for the hell of it. Can't say I'm able to taste whatever difference I'm supposed to be able to taste, but it's at least easier to clean. Official Chemex filters are a bit expensive, but I don't see any reason why cheap ones won't work.
