Good morning, James. We firefighters live on coffee! I'm finishing my 24 hour work day, and then I'm off to get my truck's oil changed and head home to mess with some wine...and more coffee! This afternoon will bring some work in the garage, tinkering on my ATV, and some mid-afternoon coffee. Wine tonight, no doubt.

You have a good day, my friend.

Morning James! I started to actually enjoy coffee more when I stopped drinking several pots a day...now if I have a cup or two a month it is a lot!....but let me tell ya...it is like putting rocket fuel in the tank...LOL!!

Good morning gentlemen!
Just had myself a wonderful, fresh-ground cup of free trade coffee. Brought to me in bed by my wonderful husband

Great way to start the day!

I was thinking about starting mine this morning too. But you're right, it's too damn hot and just can't get in the mood. Especially when the mosquitos are carrying off my extension cords.

Can someone buy me a plane ticket to where you two are at?
We've got snow, wind, and -8c (18f). Winter is just beginning.

Makes me appreciate the hot coffee a whole lot more though!

 

[jamesngalveston]

lol,rayway, with the heat, comes humidity....as of now...its 68, my grass is so wet it looked like it rained but didnt, and its so foggy, i cant see across the street.....
none the less, if i were you...stay in bed, stay warm, and at 5 switch to wine from coffee.

 

[the_rayway]

Lol, you mean from coffee to wine right?

I can't see across the street for the blowing snow - so I would totally take the humidity over that!

Good Morning all. I drink way too much coffee, but it keeps me company. I'm the bakery production manager for a catering, pasta and bakery business. I start work between 3:30 -4:00 am. Next week it will be even earlier. Thank goodness the coffee in work is free. Lol. Bakervinyard

Community Club dark roast coffee. Dang I wish I could get that wonderful slice of heaven in Missouri on a regular basis.

Thanks James, I'm weaning myself off them. Can't wait to think straight!

I guess I have my vices. Wine is one, Jo is another. Maybe a few more out there as well……

Several years ago we decided to pick up one of the Jura "Coffee Centers". We haven't looked back. Simply and utterly the most amazing cup of coffee each and every time you push the button. Not cheap but worth it in the long run if you really like your morning cup o jo!

 

[the_rayway]

I'm turning green with envy. That is a thing of beauty, Wow Mike!

 

[jamesngalveston]

morning all...that is one fine looking coffee maker......may have to look into one of those.

Morning!

I love Coffee. The local supermarket has their "Can-Can" sale where the price of canned goods drop to about 30% of normal prices. This includes coffee. I got 30 cans of "Chock-ful-o-nuts" and am now down to my last two cans. Tell me there is nothing better then that smell when you first open a can!

I hear that the most expensive coffee is gleaned out of monkey poop. The digestion makes for a better cup. My thinking is that one would have to be rather desperate to pick the coffee beans out of monkey poop!

WARNING

This machine will spoil you to the point of no return...... Swiss made perfection. It will pay for itself in about a year if you usually go to a coffee shop and order a $5 latte or similar. LOL Gotta find a justification of sorts right.

You can get a factory refurbished unit with full warranty and save hundreds of $$$ from here.

I think it is actually a weasel. In the words of the oft-imitated, never duplicated Dave Barry

Then I thought: What kind of world is this when you worry that people might be ripping you off by selling you coffee that was NOT pooped out by a weasel?

Personally, I have found the price/ease/flavor sweet spot to be a Moka pot, which is what I do every morning.
