Coffeeeeeee!!!

[AVG-JOE]

Real heavy cream in a strong cup of fresh ground French Roast is the best.


Several little irradiated plastic cups of 'no refrigeration required' half & half in four-hour old Folgers from a truck stop at oh-three-hundred can taste pretty good though, too.

​

Depends on circumstances.

The main reason that I don't enjoy drinking coffee is that for some reason it leaves me incredibly thirsty for water.

I use either a French press or a stove top espresso pot.

I'm not French, but I press that way.

When I was stationed in Oman, I had to travel fairly frequently to Qatar. The hotel I stayed at offered a huge breakfast bar. Amazing food. They put a French press out on the table. Great coffee.

Cant really say I have an absolute way to make my coffee.
A lot of it depends on the the bean and how I roasted it. And of course the method,whether it be french press,drip or espresso.
I do like a Vienna roast Sumatran when using cream and sugar but I'll go for a Sulawesi roasted to City+ and other light roast beans for black coffee.

I love my Technivorm for drip coffee.

Best I've found yet.

And while the Rancilio has a learning curve,once you get it down it makes a kick ass espresso.

What about tea and other caffeinated beverages? I can see caffein as a diuretic.

When the latte'/espresso craze was hitting big in the early 90s, I got a latte' once that gave me a buzz. And I've been drinking coffee since I was 6 years old.

Until I was in my mid forties I could drink coffee any time of day and sleep great...

Then, suddenly one day, coffee after 4 pm became a bad idea.

I actually prefer espresso.

Same here. Double espresso hits the spot in the mornings. I drink it black most times. On Saturdays (when I don't have work or Church), I add some Sambuca (a fairly generous amount). Great way to read my morning paper. If you can find Sambuca at your supermarket or liquor store, it is well worth the investment.

No, only a swig of coffee has that effect...it's the after taste it leaves in my mouth that makes me crave water.

nonfat half and half and splenda..... not to hot, i like to drink it and not burning my mouth.

That's the way I take it too. Nonfat half and half with splenda, but I like it very hot. In fact, I keep microwaving it halfway through so I can get it really hot, again.

 

[Esmeralda]

I only take my coffee one way...frozen.

Has anyone tried chocolate covered espresso beans? I get them sometimes. Yum, yum. I 'used' them when I was in college and needed to stay up half the night studying for exams.

How do you take yours.

Who the heck puts cream in coffee?

Who the heck drinks coffee full stop?

I don't drink coffee, and I do not feel ashamed, lol!

 

[Sallow]

Black.

Like mah soul.

 

[Jarlaxle]

Very strong, percolated...a double-size mug with 2 Splenda and about a tablespoon of milk.

 

[BDBoop]

How many Starbucks patron's here?
Not me....if I want a candy bar...I like Snickers.

Caribou, and then only if a family or friend is having it while I am on the loose with them. In other words, it's never my idea.

My infant child singing me the song of her people is what drove me to the dark side.

Speed would have been next on the list.

Oh, I will absolutely do a day caffeine-free if there's nothing remotely resembling cram or sugar in my vicinity!

 

[BDBoop]

I also have in the mornings, strong, real coffee (as opposed to instant coffee) in a very large mug...with 4 pills of Splenda ... and a dash of cold soy milk (can't drink it when its too hot).

Flavored soy? Love dark chocolate almond milk.
