When I drink coffee, I usually get iced coffee from Starbucks.  Normally I drink hot tea.  Yes, I know I'm strange - an American who likes her coffee iced and her tea hot.   ;D

I like iced coffee and hot tea too.  :)  Iced coffee is much more refreshing than hot, although I do like a cup (or 3) of hot coffee to wake me up in the morning.

Glad to see that you haven't lost your penchant for cerebral debate  ;)

Hahahahahaha.  You know me.  I only submit my superior intellect to the most pressing and academic of topics.  In another thread I post about dinosaur shoes.  It's a can't miss!

Yes, your range is remarkable.

So far my fav coffee is Starbucks dark Sumatra. I use a coffee press to make it.  I like dark coffees like I like my beers. They have more flavour.
The essence of the mind is not in what it thinks, but how it thinks. Faith is the surrender of our mind; of reason and our skepticism to put all our trust or faith in someone or something that has no good evidence of itself. That is a sinister thing to me. Of all the supposed virtues, faith is not.

This made me think of Vietnamese iced coffee!  :D  The only place I've ever had it is a local coffee shop called the Hartford Coffee Company.  Great place, just a bit far out of my way.  However, when I'm close enough, I do try to stop in for one - as long as it's not too late in the day.

I just like coffee.  At home we grind beans and filter it.  It does my head in when I have to buy a coffee - generally at the airport -  and they ask 'Would you like latte or americano or cappucino or espresso ... blah blah...'  I generally reply 'sorry, I no spikka Italiano.  Can't I just have a cup of coffee?'  But these kids genuinely don't know what I mean.

Ah, the trials of being an old git.  :(

New England breakfast blend or Dunkin Doughnuts in a French Press make a pretty good work-a-day cup.  Cheap too.

I hear ya. And I used to live in Italy!

I learned to make and drink coffee while sitting night shifts in the military. I use a regular filter machine and make it hot, dark and strong enough to pin Hulk Hogan.
The only thing I ever put in coffee is booze.

Yes~ their iced coffees are great too. :)

I sadly have to go near chinatown, which is super far from me to get my vietnamese coffee fix. I might give in and just buy the special coffee machines to make it myself.

Just ask for a filter coffee that's the normal stuff.
