I started drinking coffee in HS but it was very sweet and a lot of cream. I worked nights on the weekends in college and it wasn't unusual to drink 2 pots of coffee. By the time I had graduated college I had transitioned to 1 pot of black coffee per day, with occasionally enough cream to turn it a opaque brown. I have noticed lately that coffee actually seems to calm me and I am wondering if I am the only person with this reaction.

Columbian Arabica beans are my usual coffee but occasionally I like to brew a pot of Kenyan AA beans.

I can't stand the taste of Columbian myself. I can't drink it.

Kenyan is good though. But my favorite is Tanzanian.

@anna-banana: I bought chocolate orange flavored whole beans from my local roaster. I have no idea how they get it that flavor.

@typing-with-mittens: You sound like me, when I first started drinking coffee in high school (or was it middle school... cant remember anymore) I used to add lots of cream and sugar. Then I stopped adding sugar, then I stopped adding milk/cream. They both seem extremely offensive to put into my coffee now. EXCEPT! I bought a mocha pot and a small quart-sized pot to froth milk in. I now do, on occasion, add cream and sugar in order to make a latte/cappuccino, though I usually even drink the espresso just black.

My favorite coffees have to be Peruvian or Guatemalan light roasts, and light 'chiaro' espressos (chiaro -> italian for light, basically a full city roast). Though I have been getting into dark roasts a bit more recently... there was a French roasted Ugandan Peaberry that I had which I really enjoyed.

Not me. My drug tolerance is so high that the caffeine affects me either not at all or not much. I wouldn’t be drinking it if I hated the flavor.

All of the coffee I've ever tasted tasted like dirt. Sometimes it tasted like dirt mixed with something else, but it still tasted like dirt.

And the fumes are often nauseating and gross.

What is everyone's preferred brewing methods?

Using a french press or moka pot are my favorite ways to brew coffee. After years of trying I have finally taught my parents how to brew drip brew coffee correctly (using less coffee doesn't mean 'weaker' it means more bitter). I have been considering getting an Ibrik to make Turkish coffee with, but haven't yet... the only one that I have found which seemed appealing to me was made of copper and cost $25!

I'm a Keurig cup user! I also put tons of sugar in it and lots of hazel nut creamer. :coffee:

I love drinking coffee early in the morning, like when its very early and I have to go to work. I love the kick it gives me, but I am allegic to coffee so I only drink diluted weak coffee when I have coffee cravings.
