Sunday Morning (Coffee) Drinking Thread
At this point we know about the Friday/Saturday night adult beverage preferences of the MGo crowd. I'm guessing some of the folks here are pretty obsessive about their morning beverages as well--especially how they make/drink their coffee. I'm no connossieur: I have a pretty basic drip coffee machine. I go with about a 50-50 mix of dark roast (usually Starbucks French roast or espresso) that I grind, combined with pre-ground coffee from the grocery store. Mostly this is a way to keep down costs, as I tend to drink quite a bit of coffee. I brew it relatively strong and take it with cream.
So before we purge the board of such mundane topics: what are you drinking this morning? (Other than the obvious: whole milk.) Coffee, tea, or a little something to help your hangover? French press? AeroPress? Keurig? Pour-over? Any particular type of beans? Or do you grab it from Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts or a local coffee shop? Black, cream, sugar? Any other additives?

So I plan on waiting until I get to work. I'll have an Americano or our cold brewed coffee to get me going. Cold brew coffees have triple the caffeine, so that might be the winner. After one or two of those, I might treat myself to a chai latte. Hashtag delicious.

yesterday and this morning (OTOH on work days, I just use the pre-ground Columbian Folgers or Maxwell House). Yesterday I went for the whole-bean McCafe French Roast; today it's the Starbucks Whole Bean Sumatra, sweetened with a heaping spoonful of raw cane demerara sugar with a liberal dose of half-and-half. Nothing fancy for brewing, just an automatic drip coffeemaker today (though some days I slow it down with a stove-top perculator on very low heat, just barely hot enough to make it perc).

You'd save a lot of money just sweeping up your kitchen floor and putting the collected debris in the filter.

Once the baristas start recognizing my name and/or order I find a new spot.

This morning I'm having the Kona Blend from Anthony's Coffee Co. (Paia, Maui, Hawaii). Great beans.

I'm watching 2011 Michigan/OSU on ESPN Classic - because I just need football.
But watching Denard play so free and happy almost brings a tear to my eye...that kid enjoyed playing football at Michigan more than anyone I've ever seen. It's pretty cool to watch...again.
