As per topic. If based on nutrition facts 1 pack of kopi o indeed 0% added sugar.
However the carbohydrate is 7g.. which translate directly is 7g of sugar?
So back to topic is kopi o kosong good or bad even is no sugar added..

I only compare kopi o kosong to kopi o kosong...Just started to learn dont shoot ar tongue.gif

Yes carb will broke down into sugar.
7g is low.

100g of rice cooked already 30g+ already..

While they roasting Kopi (referring to local Hainan Coffee Bean) there is a lot of sugar added and margarine which is also not a good ingredient.

You may consider the western kopi kosong AKA Long Black / Americano which is better alternative to local ones
*
Thats come to my second question...kopi o not like hainan coffee bean which need roasted and etc?
What coffee bean that mamak use? Was it same method like kopi o or how?

QUOTE(ultra_nyamuk @ Feb 18 2025, 12:14 AM)
Well its better than kopi with sugar or kopi with milk if youre asking that...
*
Ya, way better.

Short answer, no it's not healthy due to the process of making it. They add lots of sugar and magerine during the roasting process
*
You mean hainan kopi right?

7g carbo not equal 7g sugar.

carbo will consist of fiber, starch..

in case of coffee kosong .. it should very2 less sugar build. will not equal to 7g.

same cases on food intake. not all food taken equal = sugar gram.
*
Ok got it finally.

QUOTE(zero5177 @ Feb 18 2025, 04:36 PM)
Sorry I'm not a fan of instant kopi, it kicks uncomfortably different for me, I just make my own coffee simple one no need measure to precision. Already life changing experience.
*
I normally will dapau 1 kopi o kosng then when arrived office, i add on instant nescafe gold/kopi o sacht makes more kick.. tongue.gif

Please bear in mind tapi Kopi"o" kosong actually is not kosong. You can check back the making of Kopi-O.
Sifu actually dumb in Butter/Marjerin and sugar (different level according to resipi). The bean will roast until dark and dried.
This is Nanyang Style Coffee.

Western coffee process quite simple, only Roast the bean until dry without add any ingredient.
*
Yes, by our mean Kopi o kosong means does not add any additional sugar in it.
Instead how they gonna roast the bean, we cant control.

Sugar got a little, that's why you can see black color caramel (which is meaning of -O)_. But don't worry about, we all need some Carbohydrate. This Kopi-O just enough for your metabolism activity.
Dont add in Sweetened Milk, or Sugar.

I try google and result is this.
How is Kopi O made?
Kopi O': Coffee beans are roasted at a very high temperature, often until the beans are dark and glistening, which gives it its bitter, sour- charcoal flavour. Margarine, sugar and sesame is often added while roasting, giving it its rich aroma while diminishing the intensity of taste.
*
No no, i wont worry on that. Nowadays people no idea what they consume for.
Is good that we know at least what we had.

Every morning will hit Nescafe Gold (without sugar or milk). It's very addictive once you get used to it. Once in a while, drop by Zus for Americano (Boss coffee beans). If in the mood, will add extra espresso shot to complement my Americano. Pure black coffee is so good that when tried with sugar felt like vomiting LOL. So into black coffee now, totally addicted.
*
True..any coffee with sugar i immediately ask for exchange or i rather threw it away...

QUOTE(cms @ Feb 18 2025, 09:57 PM)
Yah its ok as usually dont take 2-3 cups a day. Hust be kinded its not really 0-oh so dont hantam the carbs/sugar elsewhere thiking got alot quota left ahahaha
*
If follow the nutri label.. 1 pack of kopi o kosong + 200ml water around 5-6g carbohydrate...which consider low.. But to be honest... 1 pack of kopi o kosong...i can pour almost 600ml....
Try check 1 roti sell in family mart..almost 40g of carb in little 90g bread...damn...

shyan90's have you seen how it's roasted? watch this and decide for yourself

*
Long time no see biggrin.gif
Yes..i know how their roasted. But if calculate the Carbohydrates and sugar contain of 1 sachets..
I personally think still fine provided 1 day sachets without additional sugar added.

Yes, but more and more mahal... sad.gif

Yeah one cup should fine for most ppl.

But those on strict diet or diabetics need to be mindful of their sugar/carbs daily intake. Dont think kopi-o kosong is really really kosong. Then plus lunch and dinner carbs then will exceed daily intake.
*
Actually if you eat 2 meal a day with moderate..
I found hardly went off with Carbs...imagine each meal around 100g carbs without any sort of snacks. Maximum a day 250g carbs while daily suggest around 330g carbs.

so many recommending nescafe gold so i might give it a try.

i always order kopi o kosong at kopitiam

Kopi o kosong is good option compare others.
But if you want getting more healthier and your wallet can afford, can go for better coffee.. That's all.
Any how, drink and eat moderate will good enough. Cheat meal once every bi-weekly i think still good.

Why minum sugary drink?

Can take a pinch of sea salt / Himalaya salt and put it in a warm water and minum.

Maybe kopi o kosong plus some sea salt or salted butter? tongue.gif

QUOTE(hbm90 @ Feb 23 2025, 10:13 AM)
I cheat meal every Saturday night. Horlicks + coffee + 1tsp of sugar. Simple life pleasures.

Other days by default kopi o kosong.
*
Cheat meal is ok. The main purpose is able to maintain the daily consumption. I saw some very extreme case however it could not last.
I already roughly 6 year enter less sugar till no sugar routine. Now cant really drink sweet coffee...I rather throw it away..

Risks of Daily Caffeine Consumption:

Increased anxiety and panic attacks

Sleep disruption (insomnia, reduced sleep quality)

Acid reflux (GERD)

Gastritis and stomach irritation

Diarrhea or IBS symptoms

Mineral deficiencies (calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc)

Elevated blood pressure

Increased heart rate or arrhythmia

Adrenal fatigue or HPA-axis dysfunction

Hormonal imbalances (thyroid, cortisol, sex hormones)

Increased risk of osteoporosis

Dependence and withdrawal symptoms (headache, fatigue, irritability)

Fertility issues

Pregnancy complications (miscarriage, low birth weight, preterm labor)

Chronic fatigue or burnout

Headaches or migraines (in sensitive individuals)

Reduced nutrient absorption (vitamins and minerals)

Potential increase in chronic inflammation
Just ask. I can explain any of the points above. Coffee should be a treat not a daily healthy dose of nutrient. Caffein is a predatory defense mechanism of plant anyway.
*
Understand on all above but already become habit...without coffee like exhausted and etc....very addicted to caffeine d..
