Americano with cream and raw sugar ... yummy

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

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.

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

With chicory of course. I live in New Orleans!

And STRONG with steamed milk if I can get it.

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.

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.

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

[WadePatton]

What's a wet cappuccino?

[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.

Drip, Black, and lots of it. I have my last cup of the day at 5 pm, every day.

[Chooey]

Another with a French press. I take mine with a dash of fresh milk to start with, but after the first cup, I tend to finish the pot black.

Earlier this year, I went on a road trip from the Auckland to Wellington, and thanks to Tristan, I discovered Bay Espresso. Glad to have brought some of their beans home with me. Although cafe's are abundant in Melbourne, the smells of this coffee reminds me of the New Zealand holiday :-)

I don't have a grinder, so I use a mortar and pestle!

A little milk in the morning brew than black in the afternoon.

Espresso anytime, preferred actually.

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
