COFFEE. Is it something you just drink, something you take seriously, or something you abstain from? [View All]

[Amerigo Vespucci]

I'm right in the middle I don't buy five dollar "triple-vente-mocha-latte-mocchiato-what-the-f**ks" from Stabucks, but I DO have a cool Krups machine I've had for years. On one side it's an espresso-capuccino machine, on the other it's a traditional coffee pot. My coffee of choice is Starbucks House Blend (although, on occasion, I'll break the monotony with Peet's House Blend).

I only use Arrowhead or Crystal Geyser water to make coffee...never tap water. The city I live in has ridiculously "hard" water. I made the mistake of having my car in the path of the lawn sprinkler one day and has to use straight vinegar on my windshield to get the spots off.

So every day I start off with 2 cups of Starbucks House Blend, brewed as I've stated above. What about you?
