How many cups of coffee a day do you drink?

Usually three to a pot.

Light roast or dark roast?

I prefer the taste of dark roast but miss the lack of caffeine.

Cream or sugar? Booze?

Heavy whipping cream, black, or Kahlua/Bailey's during the snowy months.

Drip coffee? Percolator?

Drip coffee.

Coffee spikes my blood sugar though. I am not aware whether that is scientifically accurate but drinking coffee makes me want to eat.

Any java enthusiasts here?

I fill up my 16 oz. mug every morning with coffee before work. On the weekends, maybe just a cup of coffee tops.

Light roast or dark roast?
I prefer a light roast for more caffeine, most people think a dark roast = more caffeine but it isn't the case.

Cream or sugar? Booze?
A little packet of cream, a tiny spoon or two of sugar and that's it. I've gained an appreciation for the actual taste of coffee and don't dilute it with sugar and creamer.

Drip coffee? Percolator?
Drip. I have a pretty badass Bunn that connects straight to a water line so you don't have to fill it up.

Every morning, before we start any work, my colleagues and I gather in the kitchen and all have lattes as we discuss both personal and work-related matters. Real work doesn't start until around 10:15. I prefer Americanos with milk, but lattes it is. I just have one in the morning, then switch to tea for the rest of the day.

Occasionally I have a coffee on an evening, when I need to stay up.

And I never, ever, ever have sugar in my coffee. I'd kiss a goat before drinking coffee with sugar.

That is one badass coffee maker.

How many cups of coffee a day do you drink?

I used to drink between 2-4 cups per day.

Now I usually drink coffee 1-2 times a week and on the days I do, it's usually between 2-4 cups..

Light roast or dark roast?

Usually medium roast at home. We get free Starbucks at work...and I think that's a medium roast (dark by anyone else's standards).

Cream or sugar? Booze?

I like hazelnut and french vanilla creamer...usually with one Splenda and one Sugar per cup.

Drip coffee? Percolator?

Drip.

Although I also like the occasional espresso or cappuccino....and they're made with espresso machines.

Coffee just makes you quasi-bipolar. So you get this buzz on and you're ready to tackle the world. Fast forward a few hours and your focus just crashes. The compulsive need to chatter with people slowly diminishes, and the dancing energy in your limbs starts to dry up. Suddenly people are wondering why you're in a bad mood, and you can't explain why yourself. How do you get yourself back in gear? Drink more coffee. It's basically like medicating yourself.

It is unfortunately necessary in the society we live in. People have to work long-ass hours in a job they don't really love (or just plain hate); while others have to sit through pretentious assholes lecture you on the contents of your degree. It's very hard to contrive energy for that type of thing. Edited by NGOG

Yeah, I guess it could be. Then again, I know plenty of people that don't really drink coffee and just workout/eat really well/live very healthy lives and are naturally energetic. (Unfortunately, I'm not really in that category... :lol: )

That's my approach, but I can see why people resort to caffeine. There's certain realities of life that your body just refuses to be energetic for.

I didn't drink coffee yesterday and I fell asleep at lunchtime. At round 9pm I was nodding and turned in. Awake at 4am. So I'm in Carl's jr draining their weak ass coffee and going to load up on some Costa Rican rocket fuel so I can post til 3am.

Absolutely awful. Disgusting. And it makes your breath smell like shit.

On a side note you people have horrendous taste in coffee. FFS doesn't anyone drink espresso based coffee here?

I've got a Nespresso machine. kinda of gay but it makes expressos. I've run out of capsules. thats whats annoying about them.
