If any of you guys have access to a good market that carries imports, search yourselves out some Illy brand coffee.

Its expensive as all get out, but a really good cup! Their espresso is even better!
I find them in Wegmans, and I think Wholefoods has it too.

now how come nobody has used this one on this thread yet?

If you have on near by World Market carries Illy, also they have a buy 6 get one deal on their coffees which comes out fairly reasonable.

I use a simple, cheap filter drip machine. I bought it because the machine coffee at work is really foul. I had it checked and approved by Safety to avoid hassles later on, and it is now located behind my monitor.

I use a similar machine at home, but a bigger version of it.

It depends on the time of day for me..! Right now, I'm drinking a latte but after a meal and in the evening I'll have an espresso.

I dont tend to add sugar to coffee at all, I prefer the taste as is. I do add sugar to tea though.

I'll only use a one cup French press to brew my coffee. Whole bean, ground just as the water comes to a boil. A bit of heavy cream; no sugar (I think I'm sweet enough). ;-)

If you really love coffee, consider Coffee beans roasted fresh at Willoughby's Coffee &Tea

Namaste.

funny you mention community coffee..... i havnt seen that since i was at home last time

i currently drink 8oclock, for the money its the best tasting in my area. i wish i could afford to go back to roasting it myself, but when the economy went belly up, i had to cut somewhere and that was it. as for how i drink it, adding cream and sugar is for wimps and girly men. roflmao

Girly men? HA!

Tell me, would a Girly man shave his privates with a str8?
Would a girly man NEED to shave them to begin with?

on second thought, lets not answer these questions

I take my coffee black and strong and way too much. Specially at work we sometimes drink coffee around the clock and somewhat the only way to stay awake on 'dog watch' at night is to drink coffee. And more coffee.

I've tried to give up drinking coffee at home and drink tea instead but sometimes it is hard as trying to quit smoking.
Every now and then we use an old manual coffee grinder that belonged to the grandmother of my wife. Mostly Kenyan or Ethiopian beans, and that coffee is maybe the best i've ever had.
