keurig, drip coffee maker, french press, espresso machine?

Enquiring java junkies want to know...

Me, auto-drip Mr Coffee 5 cup. Ground coffee-but once in a while I grind whole beans. Unflavored half & half, no sweetener. 

Fave coffee drink from a shop is a hot latte, plain.

After decades of all the types you mentioned (Keurig, french press, etc...). My brother said "you've become our Mother" since I recently switched to freeze-dried Taster's Choice French Roast using an electric kettle. Less mess, minimal space usage and I'm adjusting slowly but surely to the change. 

Cheers and Bottoms Up All!

I'm not a hot coffee drinker.  I buy ready to drink Starbucks in a medium blend.  I add Stevia and sf Coffeemate Italian Cream creamer.

Why is it that the first drink is always the best?

@smoochy   12 cup drip coffee maker.  I usually make 6-8 cups (probably 3-4 mugs) usually flavored coffee and flavored creamer.  One of my faves is blueberry coffee with vanilla creamer.  Or sometimes (mostly fall or winter). Regular plain coffee with a shot of Baileys and whipped cream!  

I'm not a Starbucks drinker.  An occasional Dunkin coffee.

Instant.

Oh I'll play while I'm waiting for Monday Night Football.

I use a Keurig, Starbucks Dark Roast pods, Starbucks flavored cream - any variety - no sugar. One cup a day.  Love it 💜

@monicakm  I drink this exact combo in the afternoon.  I get the coffee at sams, two huge ones for 9.99.

In the morning I use my nespresso original espresso with sugar free italian creamer.

Regular auto drip maker. I use only medium roast whole beans ground coarsley (less bitterness) and add some salt (also takes away bitterness) add a little heavy whipping cream and some 1/2 & 1/2, (no sugar) to my cup, and I have a very tasty cup of coffee. I gave up on the ground coffee a while back because it was always bitter and didn't taste at all good to me.

What size is the Starbucks coffee you get?  This is 32oz and costs $5.98.

I don't drink coffee, but after giving my husband a play-by-play of the pour-over method while watching Alton Brown while we were having lunch at Shaggy's one day, he decided he had to try it and became a pour-over coffee snob.  So, now he also grinds his own beans too.  prior to that, it was the Keurig.
