Or you can use it as a pipe de-rotter. Truly a wondrous thing, day-old coffee.Claudius wrote:a fresh pot is always nice but you can conserve coffee by drinking yesterdays pot...

I never drink coffee which is more than 5 hours old, even if it's still warm. That's because the coffee just doesn't taste that good anymore, and usually there is that burned taste in it (if the coffee has been kept warm by maker).
Fresh coffee is the best, especially during colder mornings: eat breakfast, take a cup of coffee and go outside to cold, fresh air. Nothing makes your day start better than that.

Heh, im picky that way too. But maybe not to that extent. Something left over for 24 hours usually ends up down the toilet.Kipi wrote:I never drink coffee which is more than 5 hours old, even if it's still warm.

I make it strong with a little bit of sugar. Coffee that is too sweet or watered down is awful.

Well the older eastcoasters that raised the fuss likely would not know a good green tea if it was poured down their throats. For my part I wake up with a pot of coffee, black with sugar in a cup large enough to have a bowl of soup in. Once at work I tend to have at least one green tea to keep from getting sick.

We get some of it in BC.. namely the Scotch Presbyterian, utilitarian feel of Vancouver (hard to explain and pretty off-topic, so PM me if you want further clarification
However, when it comes to teas and coffees, we are much more part of the 'West Coast Culture.' Even with teas, you are far more likely to find various exotic blends, herbal varieties and the like than simply traditional teas.

The US chains selling authentic tea varieties do most of their business off the metropolitan east and west coasts. But then, you seem to know my country far better than I do.jklinders wrote:Well the older eastcoasters that raised the fuss likely would not know a good green tea if it was poured down their throats.

No, sorry: our east coasters actually do know tea varieties pretty well, these days. There's even a chain store, Chai, where they flock to sample the latest leaf in stock.Posted: Wed Jul 22, 2009 4:53 am
Cappuccino for this coffee lover.
Here's a bit of trivia about me:
My first paycheck was used to buy myself a regular brew/espresso/cappuccino maker by Krups.

I drink caffe latte with one sugar, or, if it's available, Arabic coffee.
However, now I live in the US so now I don't drink coffee, now I drink some dark brown, burnt water with very high caffeine content and very little taste.
Alas, I remember the coffee bars in Rome and Kairo

A fair-traded brand coffee is the best, with my favorite of those being Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (but there are several good brands). Organic and shade grown fair trade may cost a little more up front, but it's well worth it.

Black as night, the strength of temptation, bitter as betrayal and hot as hell.

I like my coffee like I like my women - covered in bees.
Actually, a dash of skim milk for the brewed-at-home kind (never can get the temperature right!), or black, if we're buying in public. Must keep up macho appearances, after all!

You should buy your coffee in paper cups with a plastic top on, no one will ever see your coffee again!Tower_Master wrote:Must keep up macho appearances, after all!

Fair trade coffee when I can get it otherwise its instant coffee.

Instant? Why not just take a small dollop of mud and drop it in a large vat of water? Same fine flavor.Tamerlane wrote:Fair trade coffee when I can get it otherwise its instant coffee.
