Stand up and be counted. Also, what's your favorite style coffee? Mine is Peruvian, straight up. I use a press, and the only down side is that coffee coming from anything else tastes like shit. Well, except a friend of mine uses some other kind of maker (forgot the damn name of it), and he uses an espresso grind in it. It was about the same in quality as what my press makes, but I heard they're a pain in the ass to use and clean.

While I consume tons of coffee I dress it up with so much cream and sugar it all tasted the same. At work we have dunkin donuts and it taste fine with enough sugar in it. hah.. Guess I'm not really a connoisseur.

I've never smoked, I don't do drugs and I drink alcohol very sparingly. Try to take away my coffee and I'll rip your fucking heart out and stuff it down your throat.


No, seriously, bared handed.

My family knows how much I am addicted to coffee, so they usually pile on the gift cards for starbucks around the holidays.

I get their Italian Espresso mix and make it in a French Press at home. At work I'll just down whatever drip coffee is available at the time.

I mix it up but stay with the high grade stuff.
The itailian expressos are excellen.
For some reason I get a kick out of buying anything from Columbia that comes in a bag.

I buy the Kirkland brand at Costco. Starbucks roasts it for them and it's only 9.99 for 2 lbs.
It's great coffee and a great deal.

Now that most people are scaling back due to the economy, it's kinda fun looking for good bargains.

I love my coffee but nothing too fancy here. Maxwell House - black - with a teaspoon of honey.

Have you had to cut back on your dogging activities, you know stick to local parks to save on gas and stuff?

Dave, that machine is quite nice. We have one at the studio and it does in fact get the job done when you have 30 seconds to make a cup. Best part is no clean up needed afterwards. They make a ton of different brands that fit into that thing too.

Not only that, but the coffee it makes is damn good.
I've tried many other brands, but to me, the "Coffee People" brand is superior

The wife and I bought ourselves a Keurig for Christmas and I don’t know how we ever got by with out one. Plenty of different type of coffee to choose from so it’s never the same. My weekday norm is CARIBOU but his morning I am having Tully’s KONA blend.

The thing is great.

I am sure that you already have a line on who has the best variety of coffee's, tea's and hot chocolate but if not here is where we are buying some of our K cups.

My work supplies us with endless starbucks grounds (french, breakfast, house, dark) so a fresh pot is always brewed all day long. I'm on a Breakfast Blend kick now. Straight up, black.
Too strong for my wife, so at home it's Folgers. Crap is barely drinkable.

Opinions on store bought Dunkin D's grounds? shit's expensive, but I want to try it. Walmart carrys it for over $7 a bag.

I actually have been having dreams about the type of coffee I'm going to have in the morning. Monday morning suck ass so usually just go regular but about 4 pots. haha

I like the Kaluha creamer that you can put in coffee too.

I am not a fan of Starbucks from their store, at all. I like almost anything else even the Starbucks we grind at home. We have a cheap brand maker that we got at Ace Hardware for like 15 dollars. We have bad luck with electronics so we went with that and it has lasted forever.

Dave,

Coffee People use to be a Portland, Oregon staple until Starbucks bought them. The wife and I love the Black Tiger shakes.

There is a local shop that kept the recipes and we can still get the shakes however miss being able to roll into a CP and get a great cup of house coffe. The big thing now in PDX is Stumptown coffee.

How do you know of Coffee People?

Know them only from trying their KCup products, which of the bold/dark coffees (my preference) available for the Keurig, I feel they're superior

Cool...good to see they haven't completely gone away. Thanks for the info and I have sent a link to the Keurig machines to the wife.
