Thought it was about time an important topic was discussed here....COFFEE!!

1. Do you drink coffee or not?

2. What is your favorite brand/flavor

3. Do you even bother with decaf?

4. Any drink instant coffee?

Can't stand the stuff. Don't even like the smell. My caffeine intake consists of one Diet Coke, with lime squeezed in it, at breakfast.

I loves me my coffee, anyway I can get it.

We use Costco beans - some off brand that's supposedly roasted by Sbux. It's the cheapest coffee they have and it's really good. Full, but not overbearing or acidic.
Decaf at night because I'm getting old and can't handle caffeine late in the day.
Instant when there's nothing else around.

I used to drink diet coke..finally gave it up for good.

I drink green tea in the morning..and later in the day I use the Keurig..sometimes for black tea..sometimes for Starbucks Sumatra coffee.

Definitely have no use for decaffeinated anything.

Yes

I buy whole beans at Costco, forget what type.

I will drink decaf at night, not very often.

Instant is in the pantry and it was much appreciated last winter when the power went out.

I drink one cup in the morning. I try different k-cup brands/flavors. My favorite so far has been Community Coffee - Columbia Classico. It's a medium-dark roast.

My Mr. Coffee broke and I boiled coffee in a pan of water and strained out the grounds, until I bought a new one. Best coffee I ever drank.

Yes, I love coffee
I drink Starbucks: Verona, Sumatra (whatever is bold). Right now I'm enjoying the last our stash of "Christmas Blend". I have tried Seattle's best, the darkest roast, and liked it
No
No

Hard to wake up without a cup of coffee in the morning; I have done it, however. Drink about two cups in the morning and that is all for the day. Often, I drink green tea during the day, especially when I'm working on the computer.

I love going to coffee shops in the morning. Love the smell and relaxed feeling. Love to read, catch up on work, or bump into friends at our neighborhood Starbucks.

I've never understood the Starbucks thing. 7/11 tastes just as good and is a whole lot cheaper. It's mostly a women's thing. You don't see many men in Starbucks. My Sis-in-L who's poor as a churchmouse goes to Starbucks every morning on her way to work. That's one of the reasons she's poor.

I do Starbucks maybe once or twice a year. I know others who do it some of them men. Convenience store coffee tastes better to me too as I can make it however I want AND it's cheaper. But I'm really cheap and prefer just to make my own at home if possible. We have really good coffee here at the office as my bosses sister owns a coffee shop in the Panhandle.

How do you make instant coffee when your power goes out? You still need hot water.
