| Comparison |  |  |
|---|---|---|
| Creation method | hot water leaching from coffee grounds as it drips through, leaving much of the flavorful oils behind | cold water steeping followed by vacuum extraction, leaving the grounds almost as dry at the end as when the started |
| Coffee acidity | Coffee made with hot water extracts more acids than oil. Normal coffee stains teeth due to acid etching the coffee "brown" into tooth enamel. | BBotE has far less acid, therefore less staining. Cold vacuum extraction removed the oil vs. acids from the bean thus mitigating staining your teeth |
| Caffeine content equivalent one (1) 3.5oz BBotE equals | over a gallon of coffee! | 3.5oz |
| Shelf life | less than 5hrs | up to 3 months if kept cold |
| Calories & Fat | 6.5oz 160 calories 6 grams of fat | naturall hints of sweetness from extracting more oil from bean, thus no calories. (technically coffee has 2 calories) |
BBotE vs. Coffee
The Black Blood of the Earth (or BBotE for short) is a cold vacuum extraction coffee concentrate. It was created by a diabetic with a sweet tooth out of his need for caffeine but without adding sugar and cream to cover the bitterness. While the goal was to make a rich, flavorful coffee full of delicious oils, caffeine was also concentrated as a pleasant surprise. According to back of the envelope rough estimates, the caffeine was concentrated about 40 times higher than normal drip coffee...so, drink responsibly. I recommend consuming no more than 100ml per DAY (3.5oz approx.)
This is SERIOUS stuff!
Seriously delicious!
My bottle arrived last night. I didn't want to have my first cup at 8pm though, so with some disappointment, but a strong feeling of moral superiority, I laid the bottle aside for this morning. So, I have just now had my first cup, and let me say, "RIDE THE PIG" indeed. I'm in heaven. My taste-buds thank you!
My friend gave me half a oz of this stuff and I was SUPER FOCUSED for 5 hours!! I have since ordered some for myself and can't wait for it to arrive.
