Dark and murky, just like women :wink:

We use our french-press most of the time, pour right after pressing and toss remainder. I know its the worst way to brew...but I have my grandparents pyrex percolator....and we enjoy some seriously burnt coffee in honor of them sometimes.

I have a mocha master machine that I think is garbage for how much it costs. I'm always experimenting with it and I can never get it to fast just right. It is either too weak, or burnt tasting. Maybe it's the beans. I've read up a bit about growing my own beans and roasting them myself, but I've never tried it. Unfortunately they need a bit more warmth and light than ohio provides.

the farberware electric percolator is awesome, never burns the coffee. it's by far my preffered way to brew now.

Home brew black only 1 or 2 cups in the morning. When out on the way to work I stop at HOT SHOTS at 16 and mound here in the detroit area to see the girls in there who are dressed in bikinies.

I'm a bit of a coffee snob to be honest. Can't stand freeze dried rubbish you get at the super market. Expresso is the order of the day (well, each morning actually).
Usually go for a Cap with half a sugar. Always prefer a double shot and have a few preferred places I frequent that I know can serve up a good coffee.
Couldn't survive without it.

Agreed...

I love making mine in the french press. I'll take it with milk and sugar.

The best coffee I've ever purchase was in Istanbul in the spice market (Kurukahveci Mehmet Efendi) this place has been making coffee since 1870. You just walk up to a window and buy your ground coffee. I've traveled a lot and have yet to find coffee that's as good. I wish I could find it locally in Canada.
