Serious question: doesn't pouring into milk negate/mask much of any bitterness anyway?

Serious question: doesn't pouring into milk negate/mask much of any bitterness anyway?
- xinayder 3y agoIt does, but then you're also removing part of the coffee taste.
- tedmiston 3y agoYes, this is exactly why many baristas will choose a darker or more full-bodied coffee for an espresso type drink vs a lighter roast for something like a pour over. Darker roast coffees are also much more forgiving in general, since they already have some bitter taste to them in the first place. It's still a better end product to brew the coffee or espresso well in the first place vs try to mask faults (bitterness, sourness, etc) after the fact.
