Do you make your own coffee in the morning?

[lurkingdirk]

Or do you buy it?

I know not everyone drinks coffee, but those of you who don't, go drink your tea, or whatever. Andy Ry has a bloody mary for breakfast, as I understand...

I make it at home - it saves huge dollars, and I find I can make as good or better coffee than is available anywhere locally.

I actually use my coffee maker as an alarm clock. It grinds the beans (which I roast at home too), and the sound is just loud enough to wake me up (it's a floor lower than my bedroom). Then I spend the four minutes it takes to brew laying in bed and smelling delicious coffee smells.

When I periodically do get something like Starfucks, I just don't enjoy it.


Anyone have a different/better routine?

Anyone willing to defend buying coffee in the morning?

I make my own in the mornings. Like you, i set the timer to have it ready when I wake up.

I don't understad paying the outrageous prices for coffee from a cafe.

I'm a tea guy. The smell and taste of coffee disgusts me.

Well I drink tea.

I do however make hubbies coffee in the morning for him from time to time. Nothing in the morning says I love you like a cup of coffee brought to you by your naked wife so he tells me.

Don't drink coffee - never really had a taste for it.

 

[Bloodshot Scott]

Make it. Usually tastes like shit compared to the stuff they have anywhere else. Must be the tap water or something. Went to the hosptital the other day to see my cousin and the coffee there was brilliant. Much better than the stuff I brew. :dunno:

 

[Not Sure]

I make a pot every day and have for years. I buy the stuff in bulk and save a lot more than buying a cup for $1.70 or whatever it is at a coffee shop. Question really is Dirk, do you drink it black or put cream/sugar in it?

 

[Ace Bandage]

I like my coffee like I like my women... filled with booze.

There's always a pot in the lounge, so I usually fill up when I walk in the door. I'd love to brew it at home, but the little lady hates the smell of coffee.

And the only time I drink a bloody mary is when I'm tailgating at 7:00. Breakfast of champions, baby!

I should slap you. I drink it black, of course. It's a crime to doctor well prepared coffee. (unless it's late in the day, and some whisky goes in and a heavy cream layer is laid on top, but that's different.)

Strange, I like my coffee as I like my men...strong and black.

I have to tailgate with you this year. I've never done a hard-core tailgate.

I pretty much thought you knew the only acceptable answer but had to make sure. Carry on.

Who the hell do you think you are saying something like that? Women are strong beautiful people that don't need to put up with Asshats like you :2 cents:

Tailgating at Purdue is a joke.

If you really want to tailgate, go to Wisconsin. They're professionals.

In a fight between the two of you, I'll put heavy money on you. I'll also put heavy money on Andy Ry getting an erection.

They're pretty pro here, too. Maybe you should come here, if you could stomach seeing the Irish....

I like my coffee as I like my women.
2 sugars and a creamer.

What?

Thank you Lurky.
I hope he wont think it's funny to pretend it's a sword he can fight with.

 

[bahodeme]

I make a pot every morning. Black with sugar. On the weekends with Bailey's.

 

[busaguy79]

I usually make my coffee most of the time, normally buy coffee when i'm out or leaving for work because don't want to make coffee at 10 o'clock at night lol

 

[luis1972]

Yes, it's a pleasure to do it...
:hatsoff:

 

[izabelplayer]

i usually grab my coffee at starbucks. I should start making my coffee in the morning to save some money. i usually have two cups of coffee a day though. one in the morning, the other right after lunch.
