inkman Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 I used to be a big puss and drink flavored coffee. Then I moved to non-flavored coffee but I'd put a healthy amount of sugar in it to get it down. Now I'm a straight black guy...er...that's how I like my coffee. Let me hear your coffee anecdote. 1 Quote
carpandean Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 Go to store ... buy coffee ice cream ... put two scoops in a cup ... microwave for 2 minutes ... drink. Not literally, but that's pretty much the end result. ? 1 Quote
SABRES 0311 Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 I drink black tea but with coffeemate creamer. Used to drink coffee but grew tired of it. Give it a try for a week. Quote
Winston Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 I drink my coffee black. Generally I like it pretty strong too. Dark roast, or an espresso infused flavor. I only drink coffee at work. Don’t even own my own coffee maker, actually! But I’ll have it every day at work. Just a cup or two. Quote

I drink an unhealthy amount of coffee. I usually have 3 to 4 twelve oz servings a day but if it's I had a rough night, you may need to double that. I can't function without 24 oz in the morning and then 2 o'clock and 6 o'clock I may need a boost. Unless I can sneak a nap in somehow. Edited November 23, 2018 by inkman Quote
Ho-Chi-Sock Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 If I do have it, it'll be black. Used to have one small or medium each day but it made me way too anxious and jittery. I only have them if I know I'm in for a long staff development session or some other arduous day. Quote
matter2003 Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) I don't. Caffeine is a very poor drug...body gets used to it quickly and eventually you need so much of it, its nearly impossible to drink enough. Edited November 23, 2018 by matter2003 1 Quote
Sabel79 Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 Black, in copious amounts. Cream and sugar are for milkshakes. 4 Quote
bunomatic Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) I love a good strong cup of coffee. Didn't have a real good cup till my first trip to Malaysia. Kopi panis ( Hot Coffee ) is my favorite. Strong like espresso with condensed milk for sweetness. I have yet to find anything that compares anywhere. Timmy Hortons is like dishwater in comparison. Like drinking weak tea. Can't stand that crap and never really considered it good enough for a country to hang its hat on anyways. Starbucks Americano is my go to when I'm away from the house. At home I make it like they do in Malaysia with my Bialetti. Edited November 23, 2018 by bunomatic Quote
erickompositör72 Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 (edited) Resident coffee snob. Was gifted an espresso machine 6 years ago. Flipped it for better espresso machine. Using a commercial espresso grinder from craigslist. My morning coffee routine is espresso with steamed milk, either a cappuccino, cortado, or latte (referring merely to proportion of milk/espresso). Coffee is Toby's Estate "Bedford" blend (ethiopian, central american, maybe some brazil?), ideally brewed 5-15 days after roast date. But my last week was really busy, couldn't make it to whole foods for Toby's Estate, so it's been Dunkin Donuts whole been + Mr Coffee. Milk, no sugar.

Coffee doesn't leave anyone's breath pleasant but for some reason dairy leaves my mouth tasting all enzymie. 1 Quote

Thwomp! Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 I guess I'm a coffee lightweight, but I'm ok with that. I only started enjoying it once I got a Keurig, and now have one at home and work. I drink one or two 16 oz. cups a day at work in a contigo so it stays warm for hours. Cream and sugar too because that's how I like it. I also like that with K-cups you can easily try so many different flavors, varieties, and brands. Quote
bob_sauve28 Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 I buy the cheapest coffee in a big can, make it strong and drink it with some half and half in it. I consume a lot of coffee during the day, but especially early. Best set way to have it is with Pumpkin pie, yum! Don't do that too often, though. 1 Quote
ParkMeadow Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 K Cups because I'm lazy, and wife only drinks decaf. Black and hot. Peet's brand are the best in the Keurig. Aside: cannot stand Dunkin's coffee, and unfortunately they rule New England Quote

Doohicksie Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 Black. I don't think Mrs. Doohickie really thought too much about where she wanted me to put this wall hanging, but I don't think she could have picked a better spot. 1 1 Quote
That Aud Smell Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 Calls to mind a funny riff I once heard on the old trope: Friend: ”I like my coffee like I like my women ...” Me: (thinking he’s gonna say “black and strong”) Friend: (takes a pull from his mug) “... in the morning.” 2 Quote
Weave Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 Rarely. But just a splash of half and half on the very few occasions I do. Quote

ParkMeadow Posted November 23, 2018 Report Posted November 23, 2018 On vacation, I like my coffee with a shot or two of Jameson's or Black Bush, any time of day! Quote
