Coffee

[Demented]

Ever dip your brush in piping hot coffee then use it to work up a lather to shave with?


Makes lather much hotter than is possible with tap water and has that fresh brewed aroma.

Ummmm....no.

 

[Sand0r]

haha, I really like coffee, i'm going to try this.

 

[jjjackso]

i prefer to keep mine separate. But i have accidentally reached for my mug of coffee instead of my scuttle a few times, never actually drank the lather or put the coffee on my face.

 

[guitarslinger]

this kind of sounds like a good idea.

I'm going to try this.

They've started selling caffiene shampoo here in Germany. Apparently caffiene stops hair loss. The whole point of shaving is to remove hair, not help it grow, so I think I'll avoid this one. Good luck with it anyway.

I like the flavor it imparts into my morning cup of joe....


Nothing like a shot of Williams of VDH in my morning coffee

See, this is where Starbucks gets their brilliant ideas, and B&B members won't get credit.

"I'll have doppio venti vendetta barbiericcino with caramel and whipped cream. Oh, and some pre-post."

Or... you could just boil some water

I feel like preparing your lather with water out of a kettle and taking your shave with your cup of coffee next to you will accomplish much the same thing, without ruining your coffee or staining your brush.

Maybe I'm missing something, though.

I'm sitting here drinking an AeroPress Americano thinking that it works better on the inside then out.

Don't knock it, 'till you've tried it. Unscented soap with piping hot coffee to make the lather, I love it. Of course I don’t use the coffee until I’ve had my fill.

I don't mind dipping in a Sulawesi, but I'm sensitive to a Narino or La Minita.

 

[nuclear balm]

Use decaf or else your face will be up all night.

Is it still warm by that time? Wasting coffee? You really are demented!

 

[Uncle Erik]

Er, no. Though I might try it with an old brush that needs restoring.

 

[Trawlerman]

Coffee? Not for me thanks, I don't drink that filthy stuff!
It gives me a terrible upset stomach.

I much prefer a Chai Tea or Redbush/Rooibos Tea.

 

[GoldenBacon]

I have only one thing holding me back from trying this, will it damage badger or boar hair brushes or would I be better off using a synthetic?

 

[Triumph Coupe]

I am hoping that you don't take milk in your coffee! Imagine hot milk festering in your brush... Nasty!

I think I'll avoid the coffee lather route if it is all the same to you thanks.

. Apparently caffiene stops hair loss. T.

Is that true? Excuse me while I empty the tea pot over my head...
