Coffee. Im on a budget so i dont get too fancy. In general i prefer light roasts as they are t as bitter and they are said to have more caffeine. I sometimes add milk, never add sugar.

How fun - first, thank you for the post. Answer, both. Here's how
Coffee - first thing in the morning - Folgers black silk half decaf half real, heaped tablespoons, 1 cream. No sugar.
After that till mid afternoon - hot PG Tips or Joko tea. PG (English) Joko (South African). Mellowed with milk or sugar? No
Coffee mid afternoon, bit less strong than the morning. Then more hot tea.
I found this pic and it made me smile.
coffee

Oh well, have not figured out how to add yet.
As a real treat I like Jamaican blue mountain coffee - but that is a once a year extravagance as it cost about $50 a pound.

Wonder what kind of coffee or tea Star Wars Jedi would like? :)

I used to be like Brick and just drink straight espresso, and I've since found balance in my hot drink choices

I like my coffee like I like my women - roasted at 200°, ground into a fine powder, boiled in water, freeze dried, and kept in an air tight container.


As far as it goes, I drink a fair variety of teas, tisanes, chai, and hot chocolate as well. I'm not in any particular "camp" as far as preferential treatment of hot beverages is concerned.


I sure hope humanity benefits from this thread.

Wow... I thought "I like my coffee like I like my women - cold and bitter" was going too far :P .


I drink mine dark, cheap, and from a french press (not because I'm fancy, but because the french press works while camping and I got into my coffee habit while living in a tent for 9 weeks). However, I'm trying to cut the habit. The water footprint of coffee is astronomical (140 liters per cup1), and the industry isn't always ethical when it comes to the cheap stuff I drink. I've spent so much time around development workers that, along with the caffeine, I get a hint of guilt with every sip :( .
