Huaco Kid Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Y'know, the only reason I drink it is because of caffeine. And it's hot in the winter. It's actually pretty gross. I like the fru-fru ones from starbucks. ($9) But they have very little coffee in them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huaco Kid Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I can get a mollate-choco-swizz from starbucks ($9), and it's served cold. I can get a free thermos-full of coffee from the hotel, and dump in a free pack of coco. It tastes just the same. And after you leave it in the car all day in the winter, it's cold. I save myself $18 every day, but still put it on my expense report. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huaco Kid Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 What are the foamy milk ones you get from starbucks ($9)? They're delicious. But, one minute later, there's only 1" of drink left in your 9" cup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I like my coffee black as night and strong as hell. Little cups of espresso worship my coffee mug like it's a God on Easter Island. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Czervik Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I have 40 lbs of French Roast in my pantry, and another 40 pounds of raw beans, just in case. Don't mess with my coffee. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huaco Kid Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I got espresso from the corner shops in Miami, at daybreak. It tasted like coffee. But then I could climb up and down the skyscrapers like spiderman!, and scamper across the roofs. So now, Miami told me to not come back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zonny Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Morning coffee is most likely the best part of my day; I don't care what else is to come. I REALLY enjoy that coffee in the AM. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWARREN123 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Good cup of coffee or two in the morning and the rest of the day is a breeze. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually you have to pay extra for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when my first Wife and I were still in high school, we used to go down to the New Beach Café in downtown Soap Lake and have coffee with our friends. It was usually in the early evening and we made sure we weren't taking up the big table if someone came in and also that we didn't take up space someone that was really gonna eat could use. We also made it a point to tip BIG as well. They are some of the fondest memories of mine. Yes, I love coffee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, the dark roasts are stronger in flavor but less so for caffeine content. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huski92 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Love my coffee too. A few cups in the morning and a cup in the afternoon. Black and strong. No fufu stuff for me. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The caffeine remains the same...in both lighter and darker...but you use more dense beans with a lighter roast...so you get more caffeine that way. It really boils down to weight. It's a concentration thing. i like dark bitter coffee. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little cups of espresso worship my coffee mug like it's a God on Easter Island. One time at a restaurant after a 200 mile drive, I hadn't eaten before I left and I really needed that coffee. So the waitress took my order for a double expresso, while waiting for my breakfast roll. Then she checked back with me and I ordered a double expresso, to drink with my roll she just gave me. A couple minutes later she stopped to see how I was doing and I ordered a cup of coffee. When she brought my coffee, she leaned away from me, and slid it across the counter to me. I asked her what was wrong? She said if she had that much coffee, she would be hanging from the ceiling. I laughed and said "I'd like to see that". I do love my coffee and sometimes it takes a lot to make up for what I have missed earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that's because I know the secret to all women's heart. She looked at me expecting some kind of revelation, but I said, "A butt scratch", women will do almost anything for a good butt scratch.

The place I was working implemented a program where they take your temperature as you drive into the parking lot. The first morning, she shot me in the head and said, "You're fine." I said, "I know!" She lol'd. The next morning, she said, "You're OK." I said, "No! I'm fine!" It wasn't funny the second time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a lot of memories together. My current one has been used daily for five or seven years. It gets carried in a tool bag and rolls around the floor a lot and the stains inside are permanently burned in. I don't have the cup, I drink it like a bottle. Some people look disgusted when I do that because it's so beat-up and grody. (I cut pieces of motorcycle inner tube and slide it over my thermos' for a cover. It's a better grip and it keeps it from clanging around.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
