Organic, shade-grown, bird friendly....nothing but the best! Combine local honey and raw milk....

That would be great until you got to the raw milk.

By the way, nowadays 7-Eleven actually makes pretty good coffee, with one good reason: corporate policy means they cannot let a pot of coffee sit for over a hour, which means the coffee is always reasonably fresh. As a result, there's a big crowd of people buying coffee at the 7-Eleven store I frequent during the morning commute.
 
I am a daily coffee drinker. I cannot start my day without it. Coffee has many health benefits (as long as you drink it at moderation). I heard it help you reduce the free radicals in the body (which help reduce the chance of getting the cancers) and reduce the chance of developing Alzheimer’s.
 
^ a French Press is where you add ground expresso beans into boiling water, wait a while and then press the knob to filter the grounds right? ive tried that and i found it weaker than a Moka pot and i even added more grounds. in a Moka pot i add four teaspoons.

It's meant to be weaker than a Moka pot. A Moka pot makes a facsimilie of espresso; French press is more akin to drip coffee in that regard, but stronger than drip coffee.
 
I am addicted to starbucks. There is a drive through starbucks near my house and I go there on the way to work, so much so I get free stuff and smiley faces on my lid lol
Venti Soy Cappuccino 2 splenda.. mmmmmmm
 
I drink coffee.

Not instant, not that crappy brewed stuff they pour out of an urn at Starbucks, proper espresso coffee.

Chain coffee houses are out, cafés are where to go. No coffee should come in a cup much bigger than a cupped hand, none of this Venti bullsh*t, even the small cup at Starbucks is too big for a single shot of coffee.

Love my coffee.
 
hell no
coffee = gross


(coffee flavored things, however, are tasty)

Heh, I'm the opposite. I can't stand coffee-flavoured anything; except coffee. But even then I can't drink it straight. Needs to be a mokachino or whatever it is they're called. And capuchino's aren't included :(

Yea, I have odd tastes.
 
nope..never have..never will.

why? i tried it once...took a sip...hated it. i also hate warm drinks so that didn't help.

plus, i hate the smell...i know...even non-coffee drinkers like the smell, but now me.

another reason? i live in Canada. There is a Tim Horton's every few kilometre's it seems and they have the most idiotic lineups. idiotic in the sense that, good for the ppl in them, but bad b/c the Timmies are usually located in smaller malls so driving areas are small and the lineups cause massive delays. just ridiculous.

another reason? I see way too many jittery folks who got hooked on it so bad they can't function without drinking any.

to me, imho, that is sad. i'm lucky to say that i don't need anything to get my body woken up and excited to start the day. i'm living..that is good enough for me.

one last reason: conspiracy theory - i firmly believe the coffee makers out there junk it up with something to make it more addictive. just a thought, but i believe it.

i do wish i owned a Timmy's though - liquid gold they are.

Cheers,

I love coffee. My parents have a Tassimo machine which I think is pretty good when using Starbucks discs. I have an old drip coffee maker and I use Illy coffee, would getting a French press be a big upgrade from drip coffee?
 
I don't really drink coffee. It gives me heart burn. I would take sweet tea any day over coffee!

Definitely! pressed coffee is the best. Only thing though, and maybe its just mine because its a little *ahem* cheap and old I sometimes get a couple of coffee grinds.
