Title: Help settle an arguement......
Post by Roxy on Sep 19th, 2003, 3:45pm
We have a little disagreement going on at my house (well, I'm not at home, so it's actually an arguement over the phone... :)).  I know the board has some serious coffee drinkers......so the question is:

How do you drink your coffee, and how much of it do you drink on a daily basis?

;D

1 coffee in the morning and one at night, the night one is decaf though. I drink them with double cream double sugar!!!

When I drink coffee, I drink it strong. However, if you are basing it on caffiene intake, I do a 2 litre of Mountain Dew every morning intravenously.

Peace,
Carl

Italy.....standing up, in a glass, caffe laite, as much as 5 euros will buy.

20 ounce cup in the morning.  Diet pop at about 10:00 a.m.  Then maybe I'll have 20 more ounces around 6:00.

We all drink tea over here from rose painted bone china tea services with thinly sliced cucumber sandwiches, napkins ( it's considered very common to say serviettes here) and followed by little cakes from a three tier cake stand.

Honest, we do! ;D

I drink well more than a pot a day and horribly strong. I drink it black 90% of the time.  Coffee is good anyway but black with sugar.

Yep, Yep, Yep....I DO DO IT!  (no typo)

Everyday (my secretaries tell me it's now up to 18 cups a day).

Whatever.

I like it "walking" strong black (Navy style-with a pinch of salt).

Post by jminmilwaukee on Sep 19th, 2003, 4:56pm
2 shots espresso topped off with stong coffee, light sugar and milk is my preference.

Love the french press wtih freshly gound beans.

As a snack, nothing beats a handfull of chocolate covered espresso beans.

Those canned doubleshots from Starbucks also rock.

Heavy Norweigen upbringing - I believe myu first cup was at about age 5.


Coffee Rocks!!!

Oh yeah, can't get it up here in Wisconsin but when I lived in Florida I would start my day with Cuban coffee.

Can eat that stuff with a spoon (Mud).

Another great mixer is two heaping tablespoons of instant coffe in a tall glass, add milk and some pure maple syrup - the stuff you get from New Hampshire.

Zingggg

LOL...guess I did forget to answer.... :)

As my roomates at the convention can testify...don't talk to me, don't look at me and don't touch me before my coffee in the morning.  About a pot of it...black, hot and strong..... ;D

Post by ClusterChuck on Sep 19th, 2003, 5:36pm
I follow my doctor's orders to a "T".  I was told to cut down to one or two cups a day.  I do that.  He did not say I couldn't refill that cup, though!

Therefore, I have one cup a day.  I refill it about 10 to 15 times.  I take it black, and strong.  The BEST coffee is the pot that has sat all day, maturing.  The stuff that comes out in clumps as you pour it!!!  Unfortunately, it never gets to sit that long!  I start first thing in the morning, and usually finish with a cup that I take to bed with me.

But, I am NOT adicted to it, nor do I abuse it .... .... .... After all, who has ever heard of CA (coffeeholics annonymous)?

Now excuse me while I go refill my cuppa ...

I probably drink about a pot to a pot and a half of coffee all day and night.  Depending on my mood sometimes I like 2 sugars or sometimes I like 3 and always with half and half (but milk will do if no other choice ;) )

But then again sometimes I go through a tea kick and drink nothing but tea instead of coffee.

Title: Re: Help settle an arguement......
Post by Prense on Sep 19th, 2003, 5:58pm
If I could manage to walk around with the pot of coffee, I'd drink that.  I cannot find a cup holder large enough for that, so......bout 1 pot a day.  Half in the morning, half in the evening...black, no sugar!

I drank 8 Starbucks double shots and 4 frappucinos the night I did the drum tracks for 2 writing demos. I drank them all so fast, I was vibrating - LITERALLY!

True story: The first night I did a solo acoustic performance anywhere, it was open mic night at a coffee house. I was playing near the end of the night, and drank so many espresso shots and cappui's, by the timei got up and did Nirvana and Pearl Jam, I didn't have to use vibrato on my voice - I was shaking too bad, LOL!!! Talk about a horrifying stage experience, well - not as bad as having the runs, and the bathrooms BEHIND the audience and I had to go out and do a solo song.....people said it was so emotional...my old band was crying laughing at me "Oh yeah, he had lots of e-motion!!!"
I have a heeling at OUCHFest, I will be the guy with the I.V. drip of Mountain Dew going with 5 litres of o2 before the show.

Post by BobG on Sep 21st, 2003, 3:12am
Roxy……what is the disagreement about? To drink or not drink coffee? How much it to much? To treat headaches?

Caffeine is used to prevent and to treat vascular headaches
Caffeine causes vasoconstriction of arteries and veins that supply blood to the head.
Brand names for Caffeine and ergotamine: Cafatine, Cafergot, Cafetrate, Ercaf.

To answer your question, while on the job I drink about 2 10 cup pots during an 8 hour shift. On my day(s) off  it takes about 12 hours to drink the same amount.
Always black with no sugar or other sweetener and no salt.
And NEVER anything that comes from $tarbucks. That stuff tastes like burnt skunk piss.

2-3 cups in the am. Black as night. No caffeine for me after 12 noon. For some odd reason if I do have caffeine after 12 noon my heart skips more beats than a bad musician.

Seeya,

It was just a stupid arguement with my daughter....my fault totally.  I was sitting at the bar in the kitchen being my usual sweetness and light morning self (it was way to early for me to even be talking yet)..... ;), when my daughter came in and poured a cup of coffee.  Everyone else in the family had come in a pour themselves a cup.  We all drink it the same....except her.  She put in about a half cup of sugar, then a half cup of cream....then added about a tablespoon of coffee.  

I had to pipe up and say...."That's not coffee, that's sweetened milk with coffee flavoring.  Why don't you drink it like you're supposed to."  Well, heck....wrong thing to say..... ::).  So, we decided to ask some serious coffee drinkers how they drink theirs.

I know....I need to just STF up in the mornings and let my kids drink their coffee however they like it....... ;D

I do have to qualify this by saying...my daughter is very argumentative.....she takes after her father...... ;)
