heymisterk Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I am not one of those people who drinks it all day - no offense - but I do enjoy a cup or two when I wake up in the morning. I grind my beans fresh in the morning to make a nice pot, and take mine with both cream and sugar, which I know is blasphemy for coffee purists. So, are you a java junkie, and how do you take yours?

Rocky4 Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I just started drinking coffee in the last few years. At home, my wife got me started on Starbucks espresso. Ill have a cup with my wife on mornings when I'm home. I'll take it with a little creamer. At work, I drink two or three cups of any run of the mill brand, and Ill drink it black.

RayG Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Dark roast in a french press. Black. Mmm good Regards----------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heymisterk Posted February 24, 2012 Author Share Posted February 24, 2012 I certainly know the difference between fresh coffee and stuff that is not. When I am at work and drink a cup, I drink the Costco Kirtland ground Colombian, which is a good deal for decent, pre-ground coffee. But at home, I always use whole beans, and usually a darker roast so I still get the full body and flavor or the coffee against the cream and sugar. Again, Costco's whole bean coffee is a good deal. Sometimes as a teacher, I get gift cards to Starbuck's as presents from my students, which I use to go right to my local one and load up on whole bean coffee.

Namvet Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I drink about 2 or 3 cups black when I first get up, thats it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexri Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yep I love coffee. Nothing in the world like a cup of coffee and a smoke. Would drink it a lot more if I had my own machine. Not a connoisseur by any means, I just know what I like and what I don't. In my opinion the best coffee is the stuff that tastes as good as it smells. I drink it black with a spoonful of brown sugar.

badbluesplayer Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Yessir - All day long. Hot, warm or cold. I have a Bunn-O-Matic in my studio that me and my wife use for our catering business, so I get to use that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I usually have at least 2 cups in the morning. Almost always black with no sugar. We have a Keurig, which makes single cups from pre-packed coffee pods. We're always experimenting with different styles, but 2 of my favorites are the Donut Shop and Jamaican Me Crazy (Emeril's brand). Sometimes after a late gig, we'll go to "breakfast" at an all nite diner and I'll have a few cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazerface Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I occasionally drink coffee in the morning when i need to "wake up" but most of my coffee consumption is done on the nights and weekends. I don't drink alcohol anymore, so at bars im slammin down the joe. And i like my coffee black, just like my metal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanvillRob Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Two cups a day....more makes me all jittery.... I don't drink coffee when I fly, (saves me a trip to the restroom). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetMarie Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Absolutely! Cream (not creamer)no sugar, please. At home I grind my own (Whole Foods here has an in-store roaster) but this is also Wawa country...if you've never been in one you don't know what you're missing!

Riffster Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I drink mine black and only in the morning, I like breakfast blend not the strong varieties. For years I did not sleep very well and did not realize that caffeine had build up in my system and was on a vicious cycle, drinking coffee to stay awake then would nor sleep well, nowadays I usually have coffee only a couple of times a week.

surfpup Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Two cups a day for me - with sugar and half & half. First cup at home (it's a big mug though - 4 cups of water on the coffee maker measuring thingambob) and the second cup once I get to school. We have a K-cup coffee maker in our teacher planning area. It makes a decent cup if you buy the dark roast cups. Sometimes as a teacher, I get gift cards to Starbuck's as presents from my students, which I use to go right to my local one and load up on whole bean coffee. I do the same thing - twice a year: Christmas and end of year gifts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 When I lived in the OC we had a place in Tustin called Diedrich's. They would roast all of their beans right there. It was the best smelling place around. I'd go in there and just sit for a couple of hours listening to music, reading or studying. It was a great place to go to have coffee and just hang out. That's where I got my first taste of Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee. They always had coffees from all over the globe. It was a real geography lesson to say the least.

davidl Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 Most mornings one cup while reading the morning paper with a smoke or two. Preferably from the French press. A splash of milk and one sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissouriPicker Posted February 24, 2012 Share Posted February 24, 2012 I'll drink it in the morning. It tastes great then. Later in the day I'm not so fond of the taste. Don't know what causes that, but I sure do like it in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
