  1. Ja- better than in the U.S.


  2. I would not call it stronger.....but German coffee has a much fuller taste to it....which may make it seem stronger.It's the way the coffee beans are roasted that makes the difference.

  3. Coffee in Europe, in general, is higher quality and therefore stronger. It is served in a smaller portion size however and packs the same punch as an American cup.

  4. Well, that was before Starbucks popped up in the US.

    I think German coffee (brewed by regular people in regular coffee machines) is way stronger than the average American brews their coffee at home.

    I remember my first cup of coffee in the US....some hot brownish water they called coffee...lol....But THANK GOD there is Starbucks now!!!

  5. Yes, and a lot tastier, but watch out for those prices.we are not use to them a cup of coffee can cost you three  to five euros.

  6. When I drank my first cup of American coffee I just about spit it out, I thought they accidently messed it up by pouring way too much water into it. Found out that's what American coffee usually tastes like (that was before Starbucks and all the flavored kinds, which I still can't take to)

    I believe it is because the coffee is not ground fine like in Germany. If it would be ground finer I'm sure it would have the same taste

  7. Yes and better tasting.

  8. Yes,allot stronger,I'm German and lived there almost all my live,know here in USA,but even I went "wow" when I went back after five years.Remember the first time I ordered coffee here in the USA,thought it was colored water,like ups they forgot to put the coffee grounds in.

  9. It's not that its stronger, but much better...My Mother drank Jakobs Kaffee all her life....she had tried american coffee, but she called it always Muckefuck...whatever that means....I switch between Tschibo, Jacobs and Dallmeyer, also Eduscho....just so I don't get retarded taste-buds...

  10. Germans drink stronger coffee plus the coffee itself is more intense in taste. It is a matter of how the beans are roasted. Usually Germans brew coffee with one teaspoon per cup - or two teaspoons of coffee per mug.

    Recently the Italian way of preparing coffee has become more and more popular in Germany. The coffee is just as strong but even more intense in taste: it is the way the coffee is being filtered by modern coffee machines such as Lavazza.

  11. It's not only stronger it tastes better.  The roast or blend is very different.  Two brands to try are Dallmayr and Jacobs.

  12. Generally, Starbucks excepted, coffee just about everywhere is stronger than in the US.  It's not the strength of coffee in Germany that's the problem, however....it's the PRICE.  A 5 oz. cup can cost you twice the price of a 22 oz. glass of their beer (which, in my opinion, is the best in the world).
