Tell us about your coffee setup

I buy whole Brazilian beans from Amazon () and grind them up every morning for my coffee machine!

Delicious!

I drink coffee black, these days. I got a real taste for it.

I like my coffee , Like I like my women....

Cold and bitter

Nice! I use Amazon too.. I buy 5lbs bags of Starbucks Reserves espresso beans for around $40. I use it for everything, from coffee to specialty drinks like lattes, cappuccinos, and just regular coffee.

Which one?

I have an aero coffee press, a couple of bodum coffee presses, a
Bialetti, Stove top Expresso Maker, a glass Melitta pour over which is a fav, a Farberware Percolator, and when I am running late, I have amused myself with this method...

I have had others, over the years, but I like my coffee strong,
so pots like a Keurig just don’t satisfy...

I have a Cuisinart grind and brew.. use star bucks Sumatra blend whole beans

Some people inject their black goo. Others drink their black goo.

French press, cheap grounds...strong and black...and served in ice and gulped down before it's cold

So what is you plan for the plandemic shortages or whatever?

Me 30 lbs of whole beans 15 pounds of freeze dried, sugar, I am good for a few years and several shelf stable coffee mate pump bottles, powdered milk and heavy cream.

And my Go Sun solar stove to boil if needed.

A mug heater. I make a 4-6 cup pot of strong coffee, fill my mug (I drink black, no cream or sugar) and sip on it, refill as needed.

And I drink it 24/7. It doesn't keep me up (and I often drink espresso, when I have it). But it's also not something I use to WAKE me up either.

Lol, I dunno, I have MS. My body is weird.

French Press, buy medium/dark roast from local roasters/Sprouts whole beans and grind them coarse, let them steep at least 10 minutes, with steamed milk.

Getting an Nespresso machine and electric frothier in next couple of months.

I'm using a Melitta pour over. I finally found a large one. I don't like the idea of what grime is building up in the tubes and down the coffee makers inner parts. It's also more time with water sitting in plastic festering in with it. Another thing is that coffee that uses no filter may cause some cholesterol so I like to use filters. I used to use espresso maker or french press before I found out about the cholesterol. My family has naturally high cholesterol so I try to do things to avoid it.

Coffee is pretty shit compared to tea - so I keep a jar of cheap granules and some coffee whitener for the occasional cup and weirdo guests who actually prefer it.

Keurig

My fave right now is Eight o'Clock French Roast.

Decent stuff

Reasonable price

Moccamaster - Costa rican dark, mid grind.

Cold tap water (well water only)

Instant freeze dried coffee, preferably Café Bustelo, raw honey

Fancy huh?

Tried it with kefir once. Terrible idea! Don't know what I was thinking

I propose a coffee table book about coffee tables that can also be used as a coffee table.

You mean my coffeemaker?

This frother is awesome.. Even though my Ninja has a frother on it, this one is much more useable: [link to www.amazon.com (secure)]

I like mine bold and strong like a shot of Lavazza espresso.



I've got a high-end espresso machine, grinder and get Lavazza super crema beans shipped by the case to our house every 6 months. It's one of my only vices in life, except for my love of outdoors activities.

I went through the entire ordeal, from press, to pour-over... and am back to my Mr Coffee mini (cups) ... I find Starbucks way to bitter, and buy my arabaci beans from Info wars

Dunkin’ is less than 1mi from home, Starbucks just under 1.5. Daily Dunkin lg iced, Starbucks Nitro Cold Brew w sweet cream as a treat.

Have Cuisinart grind & brew & Torani syrup at home, no coffee.

black n decker w/ timer

2 french press

one is a 2 cup single serve, other makes a full carafe

Microwave a cup of water

add 1/3 tsp decaf instant coffee, cheapest available

add 1/3 tsp roasted barley/grain (Postum, Pero, etc)

add sprinkle of berberine for bitterness.

Consume while attending to internet/GLP

Barista Pro from Breville. Took some time to learn how to dial in the machine. Well worth it.

I have a large collection of coffee makers.

Currently I use a 12 cup Farberware simple adjustable drip type for regular coffee and a Mr Coffee Cafe Barista that will make an awesome espresso, or Capuccino.

Bodum coffee grinder.

Case of 24 lbs of Starbucks Caffe Verona.
Case of Medaglia D'Oro
Cafe Bustelo

Multiple others (Krupps, Mr Coffees, Melita cone pour over backup funnels, Fill yourself cup at a time tea/herb/coffee bags.

Had to throw away 2 machines last year that started leaking. A real shame.

French press.

Several other capuccino/espresso machines, where you have to hold the foaming cup. LIke this one. WOrks really well, but a bit more work and you are standing in front of a bomb essentially when frothing the milk.

Had a couple of the Cup at a time things from Black and decker that worked well on the boat.

I just finished a pot of coffee, and now I want another cup dang it!

$12.00 Back and Decker Drip with whatever I find that's black and strong to feed it with. Makes 12 cups.....32 oz at a time.....repeat x 2 during the day.

Boiling hot water, large mason jars, strong expensive grounds, a filter and something to keep it in place.
