So what type of coffee does everyone here like drinking? Lately for me, I've been drinking cheap Bustelo coffee. I've been lazier, and not made coffee like, consistently, for a long while, as my coffee maker that worked well was packed up. But, now I've repacked it, and now I make coffee at home instead of running to the convenience store. I usually drink my coffee iced, though. I pretty much brew my Bustelo coffee black, and put it in the fridge. My last favorite kind of coffee was Cafe Du Monde, a coffee and chicory blend. The Vietnamese use it, and Bustelo occasionally, to make their spectacular iced coffee that I've never been able to figure out how to get quite right. Both of these coffees are quite strong, and quite dark.

I'd like to maybe get a hand coffee grinder, so I can make Turkish coffee. I like Turkish coffee quite a bit. I've been drinking coffee since I was like 3-4 years old. My dad would make me a cup every Saturday morning. But also, with the Turkish coffee, I had a Bosnian babysitter who'd make it everyday seemingly, and I'd get cups of coffee on a lot of days. So for me, I've always liked coffee, but it was only about high school that I figured out how to make it myself. I've always liked ice better, and only now at 21 am I even exploring drinking coffee black. Drinking coffee black is quite different, but in most ways it's better, but I'll probably alternate back and forth, especially depending on the coffee. Black the caffeine hits quicker and harder, so yeah.

What do other people here drink coffeewise? Anyone been drinking coffee since they were like 4 like me?

I like Starbucks coffee. I like coffee with milk and sugar in it, I don't like the creamer.

Been drinking coffee as long as I remember.

These days it's usually decaf espresso topped up with water (generally called Americano in UK) when out, must be made with ground not instant coffee, from a proper espresso machine.

I love a high quality espresso, but caffeine makes me very hyper so I restrict how often I have it.

Quite some time ago we invested in a proper little espresso machine for the house. My cat, my SO and our espresso machine are the three things I least want to lose from my life :)

Since I was 3. Beat you! :razz:
In my guardians defense, they only used to give me a half a shot instead of a full one. :lol:

I use Allpress. Best blend I could find here.

I love the Bay Blend from Trader Joe's, and I love that you can get a huge tin of it for super cheap.

Drink mine strong, hot and black all the way. Cream and sugar in my coffee is dessert as far as I'm concerned.
