Satanbucks has this chocolate drink, for now. It is like drinking a melted Garadelli bar. Very rich, but I got a whole years chocolate fix in one sitting. I don't think I could ever do much more than a short cup at a time. It is very good, if you like chocolate. mmmmmm.

I like my coffee, like I like my women, full of booze.

I'm a fan of tea, personally. Occasionally I'll drink the coffee at work, although it tastes like you are licking asphalt.

I just have to ask, Matt...how do you know? Have you actually licked asphalt? And if so, why? Was the coffee so bad you had to lick the parking lot to get the taste out of your mouth? Just wondering... -TD

French Market ground coffee. Chicory cuts the acid and the coffee is black, black, black.

I generally use an old style percolator on our gas stove. My husband has opted to making his "cowboy" style. Just drop some big spoonfuls in a medium saucepan and boil.

AAARRRRRGH .....What do you guys clean your travel mugs with. I had one that was plastic inside, and it tastes and smells like crap after awhile. Now I have a Stainless Steel one and I can taste dishsoap in it. I know, I know, rinse better....day late, dollar short. What can I clean and rinse with that won't leave a "wildflower and green apple palmolive" taste in my coffee. My day might be ruined now. AAAAHHHH...it tastes awful!!!!

Clean....mug? ummm.... A really small bit of dishwashing soap (preferably unscented like Ajax). Lotsa rinsing, or the dishwasher, if my wife can pry it out of my hands....err, put it in the machine. For plastic, soaking it in some of the dishwasing machine stuff (hot water) will pull all the crud out.

I tried it once when I was about 7 years old. Didn't like it & never tried it again. I do like the smell of it though.

Baking soda also does the trick too.

Mmmmm, Jamacian Blue. Good stuff, only had it once (six cups though). I drink about a pot and a half on working days and 2-3 cups on non-working days. I'm partial to Tim Horton's (its a Canadian thing). Starbucks is reasonable coffee, with an unreasonable price. Coffee? Big and black please.

I drink a half a pot in the morning to wake up. If no coffee I'm a zombie all day. Like Chock Full 'O Nuts and Stewarts. Can't stand Wawa, always get the burnt pot.

My coffee maker has an espresso maker on the side of it. I usually grind my own (either store brand beans, or starbucks if I'm livin free that week) and make it in the 10 cup drip. But, on the weekends, I like to make a quadruple shot of espresso straight into my favorite mug and let it cool a little before I speed-drink it straight up.

I have to have a whiskey water after that to take the edge off. LOL
