In a sealed container, preferably cast into a boiling sea of acid... i'm not a fan of coffee or the smell of coffee. I mean those tiny espressos at starbucks, thats stuffs weapons grade. The only person that would drink that stuff is a caffeinne junky. i refuse to kiss my boyfreind after he drinks that stuff... i refuse to go near him in fact...

Coffee is no good.

I take my coffee like I take my women- hot, fast and on the kitchen table. Twice, often too.


I like it strong with just a splash of milk.

I'm in the tea boat, as well.

I will drink coffee, but generally, when I have a choice, it's tea time.

Strong..Lots of milk, lots of sugar.. None of that fancy expensive stuff.

Generally i just lift the containers and pour coffee and sugar into a soupbowl, untill there is a nice layer of both in the bottom. Then add hot water and milk.

I have an espresso machine. I grind my own beans. I've been known to get my sumatra/kenyan blend custom roasted.

I drink a doppio con panna (+ irish whisky... an Italian Irish Coffee?) before retiring.

If I don't drink at least 32oz of resturaunt blend at the office, I wasn't there.

Any questions?

No milk, no sugar.

Tea is good, too. I have no problems with tea.

Oh, yeah, and if I can add a bit of brandy or rum, much better :)

It has to be either Finnish or Belgian (light roast, strong coffee). Every other kind of coffee tastes like water with a little bit of something remotely coffee-like in it. American coffee is particularly bad.

I usually add milk and sugar, because plain coffee as is has a watery, not full-bodied taste, if it's not enchanced by milk and sugar. Milk buffers the acidity, sugar changes the way you perceive the taste.

strong and black, usually americano without the milk

for home use I usually pick up whatever I can from the market or somewhere similar, often currently obsessed with a fairtrade guatamalan that I've found... but again strong and black unless I'm *really* hungover and then i might add a dash of milk to soften it slightly.

Golden rule : NEVER add SUGAR to COFFEE!!
It *IS* a SIN
