Österreich: Wiener Melange

Kaum ein Land hat eine solche Kaffeetradition und eine solche Auswahl an Kaffeespezialitäten wie Österreich. Ja, man sagt sogar, dass der heute weit verbreitete Cappuccino ursprünglich eine Erfindung der k.u.k. Kaffeesieder sei. Inbegriff der Kaffeehaustradition der österreichischen Hauptstadt ist die nach ihr benannte Wiener Melange. Allen Missverständnissen zum Trotz: die Melange ist eben kein…

Somebody explain Austrian coffee culture to me I am confused

#so basically I wanted to order a Cappuccino #and my friend said they don't have that but I should order a Wiener Melange #and I was like: oh they're the same? #which is apparently a VERY offensive thing to say #but explain this to me #if they're not the same then why can't I get a Cappuccino hm? #personal

a type of viennese coffee, like how i like my men

pws ive tried in no particular order: black, dark, chocolatey, chocolate, chocolaty, stirred, shaken, creamy, creamed, mocha, mokka, warm, hot, wiener, wiener melange, whipped

could you add a clue? (not the actual pw, i like the riddle)

Anon... that wasn't even a riddle but a "I don't want to embarrass myself but I cannot NOT post this so I'll add weird safety measure here" *le sigh*

Also, you are aware that it says "♂️ tissaia" on the tin right?

Still, if you like the riddle, then imagine you are in Vienna and want to drink a latte macchiato, this is what you can settle for.

And if you are as impatient as I am (and tbh it's not that popular a drink, I have no idea if one can find it without knowing German) then click on.

There are two ways to order this drink, the password is "Verkehrter" but you can also ask for a "Kaffee verkehrt". "Verkehrt" (adv.) means "upside down", "verkehren" (v.) can mean something along the line of "to reverse", also the drink itself is weak. I like pathetic malewife men (with layers, just like the drink, badum tss), so at that moment I found the jest somehow funny. Feel free to beat me with a stick.

#you know what langer Rede kurzer Sinn: sometimes i drink coffee the other way round and sometimes i like tissaia the other way round #i don't know how i can like a wiener melange man but i can see my blorbos whipped and shaken and i think i'll like that a lot too #every time somebody ask what's the password on this particular one i die a bit inside though ngl #a wiener is not a coffee it's a- #a- #a sausage #...okay now i see how that can be an answer as well but good lord #asks

I need to travel to Vienna again and see some more places like Schloss Schönbrunn and the opera house and try some Sachertorte and Wiener Melange. But I feel intensely privileged that I got to visit Vienna for free yesterday

[onyxbird]

...Well. An unexpected side effect of my business trip to Vienna is that I find myself incredibly tempted to buy a milk steamer/frother. 😨

My standard coffee is plain drip coffee brewed at home or my office. I don't buy specialty coffees out; I don't generally have strong opinions about coffee blends, and I don't own a single piece of coffee paraphernalia more specialized than a moka pot that was a gift. I'm not generally fond of single-use kitchen appliances. And yet...

It seemed silly to go to a cafe in a city where there's a particular coffee drink named after it (Wiener Melange, similar to a cappuccino) and not try it, and now I realize that steamed milk in coffee is way nicer than I ever imagined. (E.g., I was not at all expecting it to be slightly sweet and honestly wasn't even sure I wasn't imagining that until I looked it up later and found that, yes, steaming milk breaks down the lactose into simpler sugars so that it tastes sweeter. 🤯)

And then when I looked up info about steamed milk, I discovered that little automatic milk steamers seem to be available for as little as $30-$40, and I am torn. 😨 I definitely have no intention of getting a full-on espresso machine, so I'm not sure how successfully I could replicate anything similar to a cappuccino or whatever even with suitably prepared milk, but 1) it sounds like the moka pot would definitely get me closer than standard drip coffee and 2) at the price point they're available, it kind of seems like a shame not to try.

Ghost: Pompous heavy rock theater in pure culture

With the magnificent album "Impera" in their luggage, the Swedish performance hard rockers Ghost came to the Wiener Stadthalle for the first time. Only about 3,000 let themselves be carried away by the fire- and effect-rich show of mastermind Tobias Forge, who is slowly but surely working his way up to the very most important entertainers of modern rock culture. Hits paired with entertainment and a lot of irony - plus an actual interview with the band boss shortly before the concert.

The mixture of comedic elements, stylish self-irony, hard riffs, ABBAesque pop melodies and the unerring sense for an audiovisually uplifting arena show has been perfected by mastermind Forge over the years in such a way that, although the element of surprise from the past has been somewhat lost, the professionalism of the performance can compete with the greats. Pyro effects during the classic "Year Zero", an Alice Cooper-like shower of money during "Mummy Dust" or paralyzing light shows during the whole, almost two-hour set proved that the homage to the live shows of the greats of the past became second nature to Ghost. A bit more material from the new masterpiece "Impera" would have suited the band well, the Metallica cover "Enter Sandman" was rather unnecessary for that and only a highlight for narrow-minded nostalgics. Show, vocals, sound and joy of playing beyond all doubt. Before the dark mass Forge granted us audience for a conversation about role models, offerings and education methods.

"Krone": Tobias, your shows get bigger and more bombastic from tour to tour. You yourself are a huge fan of big concerts and rock spectacles. Which stage settings excited and inspired you yourself?

Tobias Forge: Those of very many bands from the 70s and 80s. The arena rock of the '60s and '70s wasn't that exciting live, but in the '80s everything was surpassed. The Beatles were still playing club shows in front of a few people, but the live business really got big with the Rolling Stones in the U.S. in the late '60s. Pink Floyd started pushing the boundaries and in the 80s the stages became bombastic. My main source of inspiration was the Rolling Stones in 1989 and 1990, but also Metallica on the "...And Justice For All" and "Black Album" tours. Iron Maiden also did great things on the "Powerslave" and "Live After Death" tours. Our show with Ghost is more a tribute to the pompous shows in the 80s.

People's attention spans are getting shorter and shorter. Do you think about that when you think about a live setting? In terms of playing time or stage design?

I've noticed that about myself. In the early '90s, Guns N' Roses were on stage for close to four hours. In 1992, they played basically everything they ever put out, plus tons of cover songs. The important thing is to make the show as interesting as possible, and when I see Guns N' Roses today, three hours is a lot. They fire out hit after hit and despite everything you lose interest at some point. If I imagine I was an 18-year-old today, I wouldn't be able to follow the long set. People's attention span is generally going down. You have to make the dramaturgy of a concert more immediate and direct. Pull people into the story immediately. I think about that a lot. A few years ago we played the "An Evening With..." tour, where we played for a little over an hour, and then after a half-hour break we played for just under another hour. All together it was about 150 minutes and including the break it was just too much. Even loyal fans told me afterwards that we should keep it a bit tighter. Currently we are playing a best-of with a few new songs.

In an interview you praised Def Leppard's songwriting on the "Hysteria" album. On the one hand, because the songs have complex structures, on the other hand they are nevertheless catchy. Is that the right melange for a Ghost song and does that benefit the shortened attention span of people again? Easy listening with pretension?

Dangerous terrain! Easy-Listening is a very vague term, because for music collectors and music freaks it has completely negative connotations, but others can very well do something with it. The Ramones have an easy standard. Verse, chorus, verse, chorus. Def Leppard composed in a very unique way in the 80s. They made giant strides in songwriting and in a very short time. Everybody knows the chorus of "Pour Some Sugar On Me", but only the real fans remember the other parts of the song, two or three riffs before or after it. This richness and versatility have always impressed me. "Hysteria" is an incredibly complex album, but it sounds so light-footed.

There are very few people in the music business who have the work ethic that you do. You are involved and in charge of everything from the songs to the stage setting and outfit to the tour schedule. You make time for interviews every concert day, and during a US tour you were constantly answering questions about Europe for the new album "Impera". Does it get too much sometimes?

I do everything with deliberate intervals. When we played the big venues in the US, it was still deepest winter and the Covid restrictions were much harder. We had an agreement with the second headlining band Volbeat that we wouldn't meet if possible, and the crews were cut off from each other as well. You could only stay inside, rehearse and practice. It was a bit like being in prison and not always easy on the mental component. To get any sun at all, you had to stand by a window and consciously soak it up - if it was there at all, because on many days there were snowstorms and fog. After a few days without sun and with two hours of interviews each, I became increasingly angry. This kind of life made me very tired and I became restless and dissatisfied. Now in Europe everything is different. The restrictions are almost gone, summer is coming and everyone is happy to be back or to see a great show. The vibe is pleasant. It's not a big problem to give some interviews besides the show.

What sacrifices have you had to make for the career with Ghost, which has been on the rise for years but demands an immense amount of time and energy?

That's always a matter of perspective. I have a wife and two kids, and of course you make sacrifices when you don't see them for a long time. But we all also reap the benefits that Ghost brings. I've been home with my family for two years now and spent an extreme amount of time with them. In a week and a half, I'll be back home and then with the family for most of the summer. That leaves me with a lot more time with everyone than most other dads. Depending on whether you consider the glass half-full or half-empty, but I like to emphasize at home that overall I get to spend even more time with everyone than others are able to. One of my kids once said I was like a visitor. That startled me a little. It wasn't meant in a bad way, but that's how it stuck with the child.

When you're on tour, a lot of things get exaggerated. But if you're really good friends with someone and you haven't had anything to do with them for seven years, then when you see them it will work again immediately. I've known a lot of people for ages who are still extremely good friends, even if we only see each other every three years because we live far apart or because I'm on tour. There are also a few people who can't stand me anymore because of my success. There was never a fight, never a problem, but they just don't like me now. Suddenly you were never friends. That's a sacrifice I can't help at all. I was presented with a fait accompli. I guess that's part of growing up. Everyone does their thing, everyone has kids and families. Even when you're not on the road, friendships slip apart.

With Ghost you can always keep the naivety and innocence of childhood. Basically, you role-play and entertain people. That's not how adult insurance agents can live....

That's what makes an artist. You get carte blanche to release your most primal child into freedom over and over again. If you read through the rock and roll biographies, almost all the good and funny stories are of musicians acting like eleven year olds. In high school and maybe even in our 20s, most of us experienced the same thing. People ask what we want to do and what we want to do with our lives. We should stop dreaming and chasing after any idols, but rather live a solid life. I was extremely unsuccessful as a musician. I didn't earn one euro from music before my 29th birthday, which also stayed in my pocket. I will never forget these many years of failure.

Today, I am incited to take as little responsibility as possible, to just carry on and dream as much as possible. But it also takes the necessary work ethic we've been talking about. For years you work towards becoming professional and succeeding. You read and learn from the best, and of course you take the chance when it's offered to you. You do everything possible. But I'm not 20 anymore and I don't have a drinking problem. I'm in the middle of life and I don't take anything for granted. It may not go on forever, so you have to seize the momentum. If I had gotten this chance 20 years ago, I might have ruined it.

Of course, parents always worry about the future of their children. Would you advise your two children to follow their dreams, no matter how unrealistic they may seem?

I wouldn't advise them against it, at least. I would be very realistic about preparing them and encouraging them to pursue their dreams, but it's important to put a lot of energy and diligence into it. That goes for anything in life. If you want to be a good boxer, practice boxing. You can't become a professional soccer player without constantly and permanently working on yourself. I spend a lot of time dreaming, but I spend even more time just working on things. When I was my kids' age, at just under 14, I was already playing in local bands. What makes me and my kids different is the way we grew up. My parents didn't have a lot of money. We were always rich in culture, but there were no big jumps. My kids are growing up without financial worries, but that makes it all the more important for me to make them understand that money is great, but not a given. And that there are other things in life that count above all else. Fortunately, my kids are very smart and understand that. I don't want to end up with kids who sit back and have no drive in life because their dad brings home the money. The kids can do whatever they want, but I want them to do something about it and not sit around. A few wrong decisions and all the money is gone. You should never rely on that permanently.

Sonntag, 13.11.1983

Heute bin ich erst um zehn Uhr aufgestanden, weil ich so gut geschlafen habe. Das Packerl für Karin eingeräumt, ich schenke Mama die Meredith Monk und Karin zum Geburtstag die Lydia Lunch Schallplatte und das Urwaldbuch.

Habe Omelettes gebraten, das restliche Geschirr, das schon wochenlang in Bergen herumsteht, abgespült und abgetrocknet. Dabei wieder die Nitsch-Cassette angehört. Nitsch ist der einzige Mensch in Wien, der PFIATI sagt. Das habe ich am Mittwoch gehört, als er sich verabschiedet hat. Habe die blaugestickte Tischdecke gebügelt, obwohl ich sie gewaschen habe, ist sie noch immer voller Flecken. Möchte heute in das Lusthaus in der Freudenau fahren, das soll ein morbides Kaffeehaus sein. Das möchte ich aus mir unbekannten Gründen sehen. Zauberei? Mit der U4 und der U1 zum Praterstern gefahren und mit dem 80A zum Lusthaus, diese Gegend gehört noch zum Prater, da laufen Pferde frei herum! In der Nähe ist ein Reitstall. Das Lusthaus ist weder morbid noch sonst etwas, eher so wie das alte Gasthaus in Judenstein, also nur für Sonntagsausflügler gemacht und für alte Damen. Kein mystisches Erlebnis, wie der FALTER suggeriert. Habe eine Melange zu mir genommen, einen Krapfen gegessen, bin mit dem Bus wieder zurückgefahren, dann in der Stadt spazieren gegangen. Warum bin ich nicht im Grünen spazieren gegangen, frische Luft tanken, Waldbaden? Merkwürdig. Ich kannte mich noch nicht aus in Wiens Wäldern.

Es war so kalt, dass mir trotz Socken in den Füßen viel zu kalt war, ich spürte den Boden durch die Schuhe und im Gesicht hat es gestochen. Habe ein tolles Buch- und Plattengeschäft entdeckt, in der Nähe der Tuchlauben. Free Music Production Records, HEXENSABBATH von Irène Schweizer war in der Auslage. Ins Akademietheater: DER SNOB, Stehplatz, hatte eigentlich angenommen, sie spielten den REIGEN, aber nein. Und wie die spielen! Diese Schauspieler sind Kulturbeamte, es war einfach NICHTS. Gar nichts. Aber mir fiel ein, wie ich den SNOB inszenieren könnte: Spiegel! Masken! Die Masken sprechen nicht mit den realen, sondern mit den gespiegelten Personen.

Bin heimgefahren, in der ZEIT gelesen: Thomas Brasch hat ein neues Stück geschrieben. MERCEDES. Um 18 Uhr wäre das Philip Glass Konzert gewesen, aber ich habe kein Geld mehr. Bei der U4 Station Stadtpark habe ich mir eine Fleischkäs-Semmel gekauft, der Verkäufer war sehr nett, hat sich gefreut, dass ich ihm etwas abkaufe, und diese Semmel hat nur 10 Schilling gekostet. Das ist für Wien schon billig. Zu Hause habe ich an der Eingangstüre drei Leute getroffen, die wollten auch hinein und haben mich böse angeschaut. Was habe ich Ihnen getan? Ich dachte, es seien Menschen, aber es waren Wiener. Von wem ist das? Gerald Votava? Ins Bett gefallen um Mitternacht.

Kaffeereise: Wien

Hört man Kaffeehaus, denkt man fast automatisch an Wien oder Österreich. Zu recht, ist das Nachbarland doch ganz vorne dabei, wenn es um Kaffeekultur geht. Die Wiener Kaffeehauskultur gehört seit 2011 zum immateriellen Kulturerbe der UNESCO. Im “Nationalen Verzeichnis des immateriellen Kulturerbes in Österreich” steht: “Die Tradition der Wiener Kaffeehauskultur reicht bis an das Ende des 17.…

I did end up having a nice time and spending too much money on Wiener Schnitzel, Apfelstrudel and Nockerl. And obviously Mozartkugeln. Well one Mozartkugel. Actually two. I showed much restraint and didn’t buy the whole Manner store but only one Mozartkugel. And one Mozartkugel in a local place that claims to be the creator of them.

The only disappointment was that Melange apparently is a milk coffee and not hot chocolate with coffee…

Tomorrow it’s supposed to be rainier than today so I’ll check out as many museums as possible :D

I saw an ad for a puppet (Marionetten) version of Sound of Music and took a pic for you. When I’m less tired I’ll figure out how to share it.

-👻

you're very brave, ghoulie!!! i love that you bought them individually ajsdfhkshgd. also i'm jealous i haven't had schnitzel in ages!!!

be even more careful with the mokka!! you'd think it's like a mocha, but it's not. unless you go to starbucks. everywhere else, it's basically a shot of espresso with a splash of milk. beware!! (i love a melange though)

museum tiiime!!! omg idk if you're in vienna but if you are and you make it to the khm, say hi to medusa for me. she's my favourite and she wasn't on display last time i went 😔

also that sounds equal parts fun and terrifying, do let me know!! i'll turn on submissions just for you, maybe it'll work over there. now rest up!!! take care <3

Somehow I made a reasonably drink with instant coffee at 2:30 am..

It reminded me of the milka instant coffee I used to sometimes buy in Germany hehehe

Basically I steamed a cup of milk, dissolved a few teaspoons instant coffee in hot water (as little water as possible), added some cocoa powder and cane sugar to the coffee mixture and poured the milk over it..

Kinda like a bootleg wiener melange, but surprisingly good
