How do you like it? Favorite blend? Favorite coffee shop?
Inspired by
Ghostly International coming out with their own roast. Which I want to badly try.
I prefer mine dark and black like my soul. No cream. No sugar. But an occasional flavored latte is great.
four barrel coffee from san francisco. the kenyan blend. ive never had a coffee that made me feel kinda high before. its freakin awesome!

I discovered my favourite coffee in the world, and would recommend to you all. And this is following over a year recently backpacking through central and south america, tasting some of the best local-brewed coffee I came across, in particular in Guatemala and Colombia (Guatemala being my previous high point).
Jamaica's 'Jablum' coffee from the Blue Mountains. It can be difficult to find in places, but a friend of mine recently brought me some back...
...blows all other coffee out the water in my experience. More of a 'high' than a 'jitters' & 'anxiety' factors (they are near-enough non-apparant).
highly recommend.

I need a couple of 1 pint lattes (no sugar) before I cam even function. Living in a village means I have to make my own, but it's more of a reflex now than conscious effort!

i make it with a mocca pot (italian coffee maker) because basically it's my only option.
i drink 2-3 coffees a day.
back when i had a french press i drank 3-4 coffees a day (with the same amount of coffee grinds), so i kind of like the mocca's extraction efficiency
still, i'm happy to see all you hipsters having fun

I kept breaking my french presses - I guess I clean a little too vigorously..
Bought a pour-over (bodum brand, if that means anything), and I think I finally mastered it! No sourness like you get from light roasts sometimes. One pro over french presses is that the lack of sludge means you don't get over-extraction over time as your coffee sits in its thermos. No more bitterness after a long night in the library

I've always liked a good cup of coffee, but lately I've been going all out. I'm back living with my folks, due to health reasons, and they have a decent espresso maker. It's a little more work than the average cup of coffee, but boy is it worth it! I can't get enough of the stuff. Lately I've been sprucing it up with some southern butternut pecan creamer. Wow!

Y'know, I don't have a coffee maker at home, but I pounce on a coffee shop at any chance I get. I'm a sugar but no cream kind of guy. Starbucks is OK, but there's an excellent coffee shop downtown in my town. It has probably the most generic name ever; I think it's called like "Joe's Espresso Bar".
