Americano with cream and raw sugar ... yummy

[al415]

I'm very fortunate to have a local roaster a couple of blocks north and an Italian style cafe two blocks east of my place. I get my beans at the former, and drink strong Ethiopian with just a little cream at home. At the cafe I alternate between wet cappuccinos and macchiatos; each served in small cup: Not the syrupy starbucks big-gulp mutation.

What's a wet cappuccino?

[steve garro]

Just like my women - cold, dark & bitter or ground up & in the freezer :) - Garro.

I love you man! thats some funny stuff right there.


drip coffee, cone filter
first cupper, 2% milk with sugar
second cupper, just sugar
third cupper on untill it starts to taste bad, just black

It's an all day long thing around here

If I'm buying coffee in a coffee house then it's 2-3 shots in house coffee with milk and sugar

At work, triple Americano (Veltin's beans - Seattle) made with the communal Cellini Rocket....w/ whole milk. Or straight shots.

At home, strong french press using some variety of good medium roast beans from a handful of local shops.

Out, 12 oz. Americanos or short "al415" style milk drinks (weekend indulgences).

I have a good old fashoned 12-cup stainless steel perculator for the morning and I just had a 20oz french press that is for afternoons & camping. Just a scooosh of 1/2 & 1/2 - Garro.

Saw this quote from Conan O'Brien just the other day: "I like my coffee the way I like my women. Yes, that's right, I like my coffee blond, slutty, and with low self-esteem."



Me, I prefer my coffee with as much cream & sugar as you can possibly cram in there. I want it to taste like Hagen Daz coffee ice cream, only hot. (But not too hot.)

Basically, I hate the taste of coffee. And yet I drink a ton of it!

[chasea]

I prefer my presses liberal, french, and full court.

[jr59]

With chicory of course. I live in New Orleans!

And STRONG with steamed milk if I can get it.

[C.Dyer]

Pour over, using a Chemex and the Coava Kone filter. Medium grind, 200* water poured slowly.

Beans are from among a selection of local roasters: Heart, Coava, Water Ave, Ristretto, Stumptown. Currently pretty into Kenya and Ethiopia, but also do plenty of Central American beans.

I drink it black.

[XR2]

Fresh ground 8 'O Clock French Roast made in an old fashioned percolator. 2-3 sugars w/a splash of half and half. I like exotics but live in the mountains (read boondocks) where 8 O'Clock is exotic.

[jhat]

Local coffee shop that roasts themselves. French press with a dash of skim milk

[WadePatton]

free as much as possible and then straight and strong and hot is preferred but cold will work. it's a tool atwo.

if i want a milkshake i'll go to DQ.

[sharkboyrob]

Strong via French press with milk and sugar.

[maunahaole]

dark roast with a little bit of skim milk.

[AntLockyer]

Black filter coffee for me.

[prcrstn8]

Espresso with a little skim, hot or iced, from anywhere that makes espresso including my stovetop Moka or sometimes even that nasty Bustelo instant espresso (bitter as hell, needs a pinch of sugar) that my GF absolutely refuses to drink. Once in a while, Red Bull or Diet Coke.
