Coffee drinkers unite

[vintar]

I drink about 5 mugs of coffee a day (my mug is about 500ml ) I have an Nespresso machine that I was given as a present and after a while found myself having like 10 a day and realising how much more expensive each trip to the Nespresso shop was getting and so stopped that. then I started using the cheaper brand pods in the Nespresso but found that actually they are terrible and normal Nescafe is better. I must say though that I prefer store bought cupuccinos, Gloria Jeans being my fav although I haven't tried that many places.

To be honest i am not one of those that frequent the coffee stand, however in my short life on earth i have noticed (at work) my colleagues who don't smoke / drink red bull do drink a lot of coffee.

In saying this i actually think its a scapegoat for getting away from the desk + ofc the addiction to it.

My only problem is that too much and it corrodes my tummy big time.

Yeah, this sucks big time. I can drink 1 cup a day, more than that and it feels like I'm going to die

Drank a cup of Kenna Everyday Blend this afternoon, was quite good

I slowed down on the coffee,used to have 3-4 mugs a day.
Started drinking to Rooibos.

But I still love coffee,my fav is Jacobs Kruning,then my bro buys grounded coffee beans at a store and make it in a plunger,mmmm.

Went to get a nice cuppa before posting here. I'm not sure how many cups I drink, but I think it's a fair amount.

My everyday coffee is usually House of Coffees, either VIP Gold (medium roast), or Italian (dark roast). I usually prefer a darker roast bean because you get a much better flavour. Woolies has quite a nice dark roast called Roma Espresso. Mocca Java is supposed to be a good choice if you're making cappuccino, but I find it a bit weak because it's quite a light roast.

At work, they get the Bean There coffee, which is big on fair trade for poor coffee farmers in africa, so it's coffee from Ethiopia, Rwanda, Kenya, etc. http://www.beanthere.co.za


Interestingly, since I stopped drinking instant coffee, I've also gone off having sugar in my coffee, although I do still have a bit of milk. I usually steam the milk when I'm making at home because my wife likes cafe latte's, so I'm steaming some milk anyway.

In terms of making coffee, at work we have one of these, which is awesome, and does the whole bean to cup thing. It also makes espresso's, which are not quite proper espresso's, but are nice and strong, and if I put 3 of them in a cup, makes for a nice strong proper cup of coffee.

I looked up the price once, and at around R20K, it's way too much for home.

So at home I have one of these, which is much more effort to make coffee because it means I have to grind my own beans, and wash out the little filter basket after each cup, but I can still make proper coffee at home.



I don't often drink instant coffee these days, but if I do, it's usually Douw Egberts, Jacobs, or Nescafe Classic.

Since we're posting pics, and pics are always cool, this is what I have :
The simplicity of it is what I really like.

I start my day with some strong coffee.
