Morning gents,
How’s about a thread for coffee connoisseurs?
My morning cup is of my guilty pleasure, Arbuckles in my Cowboy coffee mug. The cowboy mug is appropriate as Arbuckles is the Coffee that cowboys looked forward to on the trail. Arbuckles is a little expensive but it’s my favorite.

Sorry. Just plain old Folgers with home made vanilla syrup and half and half.
Syrup first then half and half finish with coffee.
Chock Full 'o' Nuts with sugar and half and half. Everyday
Fresh ground 8 o clock ( mountain peaks )
N sugar. One cup every morning, more on days off.
Two pots every morning. My wife, two daughters, and I like our coffee. Quality beans ground weekly at the grocery store coffee kiosk.
There is a large coffee thread I think it's in the finer things in life. But super strong Community coffee,, if the spoon won't sand up on its own Its too thin. Tc
Peru Norte, ground 10 minutes ago and brewed in a press. Splash of cream. Two cups before i get out in the morning
Only on Thursdays, and the Weekend. Oh, yeah on vacation/holiday too. Yesterday was 15g Decafe and 5g Caffeinated into 400 g water. Ground using Baratza Priciso, done on an Aeropress (250g water through Aeropress and added 150 g water afterward) The beans are from a local roaster. Caffeine will mess with me too much so I enjoy Decafe, also, I don't want to get addicted.
Usually Maxwell House Dark Roast, $6.00 USD for 2 pounds/925 grams, nothing fancy. I put 3 heaping scoops in an automatic drip coffee maker. All I add to the freshly brewed cup of coffee is a heaping spoonful of demerara brown sugar and good to go. I never want to see the bottom of my cup when drinking coffee or tea for that matter.

I was addicted at 14.Quote:

Run it through a Bunn drip. This is my fav coffee.
That coffee was fantastic Dave.
Absolutely delicious.
Here we usually do Starbucks French Roast whole bean dark. Rocket fuel...kinda
Pete <:-}
Daily grind for me and take it black. French press normally but pour over (cone filter) is a good cup of joe.
Just got back from a nice ride to the coffee shop (Peets) and picked up a pound of Guatemala San Sebastian. Should be a bit brighter than the Aged Sumatra we just finished up.
Yup, that's me. After home-roasting for some twelve years (hat-tip to Sweet Maria's), I decided to go "Old School" and opted for Eight O'clock Coffee's 100% Colombian Peaks (whole-bean, of course). I hand-grind three SCAA scoops every morning, then brew it in a Bodum Shin Bistro 4-cup press-pot, which is just enough for a 20-oz coffee mug (with sweetener and Half 'n Half).Quote:

They have "BOGOs" often enough that I'll stock-up on four, six, or eight.
Been home roasting around 15+ years now. I stock up at Sweet Maria's. I usually vary types every shipment. I usually buy 20lbs at a time and it lasts months. I brew in a ratio 8 which is an electric pour over.
Home roasted and freshly ground espresso for me:

Enjoying an AeroPress and coffee from a local roaster, Thomas Hammer: Costa Rican whole bean. I use a Lido-ET hand grinder and enjoy 2 cups each morning. Sadly, my KvdW Speedster sits in storage until hopefully some future date when I can get back to that wonderful espresso kit (Fiorenzato Doge 68mm conical for that one).

Turkish coffee has been my go to lately, makes drip coffe seem anemic.
HERE is the coffee thread.
I type this with a fine cup of India coffee in front of me, black with a touch of sugar.
Now after seeing the Espresso............I'm off to fire up the Electra lever machine to really get me going :tu
Been home roasting now for almost a year, just can't go back to my coffee any other way
