I am not (was not?) normally a coffee drinker but I'm developing a real craving for Tim Horton's English Toffee cappuccino. OK, it's not a "manly" coffee, but hey, I like it. Add a couple honey crullers and the morning paper and I can easily waste away an hour.

Costa Rican, thick with Half and half and a touch of sugar.

I fresh grind enough French Roast to make about 6 cups. I do this the first thing out of bed. As it is brewing, I check out e-mail and forestry forum. As soon as brewed, I pour a nice cup or put in thermos cup. Add about 1/4 to 1/2 tablespoon of Cremora or tablespoon milk, (I would gag if some sugar got in it) Then sit back read e-mail and check out the FF. I look forward to getting out of bed each morning. Life is good. About 7 head to mill and do the organizing for the day. Come back to house, do a little paperwork, drink rest of coffee and am good for the day.

Straight up, don't contaminate it with NOTHIN.

Sometimes I can get my hands on Costa Rican...it's seems my delivery person is slacking on the job...

.. Little sugar is all I contaminate mine with...

Costa Rican is all I drink any more. It is the best.

The local wholesale club keeps it in stock.

Patty and I make our coffee very strong. I like mine black without anything in it and she will use the flavored creamers if available but otherwise same as me. Lately my favorite is fresh ground columbo supremo.

Just pour it and I will drink it.I very rarely buy coffee at a chain store.I'm too cheap.I don't care for a cup of flavored coffee,but I don't mind a little spalsh of it ,and than put the regular stuff in it.I stop for gas on the way to work and add just a little of flavored coffee in the bottom of a cup.
I knew a guy that said his coffee was pepsi.First thing in the morning he would have a pepsi the way some have coffee.

I don't drink it very often anymore, I like it light and sweet, and I don't need the sugar. Although, I have come to the realization that a large coffee with four sugars is only 16g of carbs, way less than a can of soda.

I may start drinking a small cup now and then as it is getting colder, finally. I do like Dunkin Donuts though, but I'm not paying over $2 for it.

I guess I'm just your basic coffee wimp. A friend of mine on the other hand drinks something that looks, and tastes like coal tar.

I LOVE my coffee in the morning. I go for the certified organic Canadian grown KICKING HORSE COFFEE. My favorite blend is the GRIZZLY CLAW which is a dark coffee. I usually grind enough to make a pot at a time. This coffee is not cheap by any means either as it costs me $14.95/lb.

sawguy21 · « **Reply #16 on:** November 01, 2007, 09:26:55 am »

I have not seen that brand. I like a medium roast straight out of the pot for the morning wake up call, no additives. Can't start the day without it.
I have cut down a lot, it used to be a basic food group when I spent a lot of time chasing helicopter crews all over the country.
Is anyone still ordering the Costa Rican from our friend?

Caffiene is one of my principle drug habits. It takes pretty much a whole pot to get my heart started in the morn. I take it straight, and cannot abide flavored coffees. As long as it is just pure coffee, I'll drink it however it comes. If I'm really desperate, I'll even go for a cup of instant.

My wife has written and recorded a song "Coffee's Calling". She likes her coffee.

Right out of the pot for me too. PIping hot. I don't care for it too strong, but can handle most of what is thrown at me. I like, what is considered, a normal strength and am not even turned off by coffe that is a little weak as long as it is hot. I'm not too particular about brand but drink Maxwell House mostly here at home and stay away from chicory.

If you've been in the service, there is a good chance that your coffee will be black. You get used to it that way or don't get it. Picture a ship rolling in heavy seas and four or five sailors on a watch station. One says "I'm going for coffee, who wants some?" You have to do it that way because the watch station can't be abandoned. If someone says "I do, 2 sugars and a splash of cream". His cup rides right along with the others. It might have to go half of the ship and up and down several almost vertical ladders, yet, you see as many as five cups being carried at a time. Cream and sugar? Yeah, right. you're lucky to get something hot. When you take that first swallow, you begin to realize why it's so easy to keep in the cup.
