Coffee

Cypress

Will work for Scooby snacks
I always stop in this cafe before my morning paddle on the weekends.

I can't tell a damn bit of difference between the Panamanian, Sumatran, Ethiopian, and Colombian roasts.

I think its a gimmick. :mad:
 
I dont do coffee anymore. I do drink over a pot of green tea a day though.
Loved coffee and did the same with it. I realised it was going to kill me so I switched to tea. Now to drink coffee I have to fu fu it up. Its funny before I quit it I drank next to 0 fu fu coffee.

The only very noticeable difference for most people is in the roast. There is a major flavor difference between a dark roast or a light roast for instance.

The differences in Sumatran over Columbian is far more subtle, and usually overcome by the age of the bean. In about a weak some of the oils already evaporate and it begins to take much of the natural flavor away.
 
I hate starbucks coffee. too bitter because they burn their beans. I get my coffee at the local store. Yum yum! I'm drinking some right now. Mmmmmm.

I used to go to dunkin donuts for coffee, but here in portland, they're are very few if any at all. They don't do donuts in this town. Even krispy kreme is a ghost town.

And you can't get a bacon egg and cheese on a hard roll here either. They don't even know what you're talking about.

Just a couple of east coast things I miss really bad. I mean really bad.

Thanks Dr. Coffee. :)

I've been steering clear of sumatran beans, ever since I found out that indonesians make coffee from cat poop.

Aussies go crazy for cat poo coffee

Kopi Luwak, made in neighboring Indonesia from coffee beans excreted by native civet cats, is reputedly the world's rarest and most expensive coffee, painstakingly extracted by hand from the animals' forest droppings.

Coffee is the nectar of the gods. There is little doubt that knowledge helps.

If you have truly fresh beans, ground less than 10 minutes before brewing you will find that coffee tastes quite a bit different than you have been led to believe.
 
Shit Howdy.............

Retired doesn't mean dead. But I wasn't insulting you, simply giving information. Your coffee will be bitter because it is dried up pieces of what it once was. Coffee is much sweeter than people realize.
 
Nope not dead for sure...just yet.........

Coffee isn't likely to kill you. There are enough antioxidants packed in there to make you live forever.
