COFFEE

[bustedlifter]

BLACK FLAG i!i! Drinkin' black coffee, drinkin black coffee!

Maybe not so many old punks here but that song just echoes around in my head now.

Living in a town that is well known in Sweden for it's coffee a do drink lot's of coffee and allways black but sometimes with a hint of scotch whisky in it, yum. Gevalia is the brand we have here and that's what I drink.

Percolator is my favourite machine since I think it holds the taste better over a period.

Umm, free coffee at work keeps my addiction high.

How about Nashville Pussy's " Fried Chicken and Coffee"? I had one of those built in carafe coffee makers that has the little dispenser you put your cup under and it was ok. The wife and I found an old Black and Decker percolator at the Home Works store for 3 dollars and that is the maker of choice for us.

I guess I am the only really odd one here. I live in the Great Northwest, home of Starbucks on every corner, Tully's coffee and Seattle's best....but I can stand the stuff. Taste's like dirt to me. I drink tea. Earl Grey at that.....am I living in the right country? :wtf:

Hey Tazzmann, I'm not sure you can possibly be a leather worker and NOT DRINK COFFEE.....

Rawhide, I must agree with you on that point. Good coffee is just good coffee.... black as black, fresh is good though. Just don't mess it up with cream & sugar..... it's like drinkin' good whiskey with POP in it....

My coffee shop-owning brother would agree. He likes to say that the more you like coffee, the more you like it black. Me, I have to have the cream and sugar. It has to be cream, no milk, no half-and-half. And it has to be HOT.

You can develop a taste for anything, though. I had a night job when I was a kid where there was a nickel coffee machine. It spit out half-size cups of some of the weakest, nastiest coffee you can imagine, lightened with God knows what. I got to where I really liked it! Drank about a dozen or more every night.

Reminds me of an old Army joke.

'Tastes like dirt? It was only ground this morning.'
