The Coffee Thread.

Black with 1/2 tsp of sugar.

I prefer it very strong, so I use Starbucks French Roast, but the other Starbucks Bold roasts are OK as well, I just like the French Roast the best.

If I'm in a restaurant, and they have turkish coffee, I'll always get that.

How do you like your coffee? straight

What's your favorite brand? 7-11 rocket fuel

Instant coffee or ground for the coffeemaker? grounds

Favorite "flavor"(brazilian, french roast, colombian)? no preference

Regular or Decaf? always regular

Details?

I drink a mandatory 2 cups every morning at work so that I can just function properly. starbucks coffee is weak sissy coffee but i will drink it. i prefer dunkin donuts/highs/7-11 coffee though. cheap, effective and i dont have to speak some special language in order to get it.

Let me start by saying coffee may be the vice I give up last, if I even could.



What's your favorite brand? Luckily, I get free beans from a friend who works for a major distributor and doesn't drink coffee. Free Bean!

Instant coffee or ground for the coffeemaker? I grind it and make it in a coffee press.

Favorite "flavor"(brazilian, french roast, colombian)? New Guinea Blend. It's a Kona rip off. Delicious. It's a blend I get that is part Jamaican Blue and Kona.

Regular or Decaf? Regular all the way.

Details? I like my coffee chewy as hell. Black, no cream, no sugar. Warm, not hot.

I refuse to use Starbucks language to order coffee, it's beneath me

small, medium, and large damnit

I remember when I was a big coffee drinker. It was usually Folgers,(especially in the service in the E.R.). Ground,regular, and leaded,(none of that unleaded stuff). Cream,(Coffeemate or something close), and sugar and strong,(almost enough to grow hair on your teeth).

my brother and i were in a starbucks over in NW not too long ago when some douchebag came in ordering his coffee in that stupid language. the guy (who did not look happy to be working at all) comes back with the coffe and goes "large coffee!! was that so ****ing hard to say??"

my brother and i almost pissed ourselves laughing at that dude. we may have even pointed..

Dunkin Donuts Original Blend. Brew it at home, cream and sugar.....BUT.......
I only like Iced Coffee. Even in the winter. The window of "drinkability" is just too narrow with hot coffee, either it's too hot, or luke warm. Iced Coffee is good to go right away and takes much longer until it hits that awful "luke warm" period.

My cup is:
triple shot caramel latte no foam with whipped cream.

If its made right the first sip should be a bit bitter, I love it because its one of the few drinks that tastes just like it smells. I'll hold some in my mouth and circulate the aroma as I exhale through my nose...in my world there are only a handful of things that are better.

My cousin in Annapolis gave me her cappuccino machine a few years ago so now I make them at home to, and they are part of my "all niter" kit.

What's your favorite brand? Peets

Instant coffee or ground for the coffeemaker? Ground

Favorite "flavor"(brazilian, french roast, colombian)? Like mostly African coffees and Indo-Pacific island coffees. Ethiopian, Kenyan and Sulawesi are all delicious.

Regular or Decaf? Must you ask?



I work for Peets out here in Cali. Among other things, I'm the coffee bean specialist. I go to the roasting plant in Alameda once a month for blind taste tests. Fun stuff.

*oh and btw, Freshness is the most important thing in coffee. You can have crap coffee, but it will taste great if its always fresh. High quality coffee, if its not fresh, loses all that great flavor fairly quickly. Buy small quantities from places where you know the coffee is fresh. Don't buy "pounds" of coffee from grocery stores that are prepackaged. Read the package, they aren't full pounds, but usually priced as a full pound. Go to a coffee store.

No coffee for me, thanks.

I think I've had all of one sip of it in my life. I occasionally like the smell of coffee though

I'll take hot chocolate or tea instead please
