Yuck! (IME). My parents have one and their coffee is vile. I have to mix it with shitloads of milk to make it palatable.

Snob.

That's probably not the fault of the cafetiere (unless they're not cleaning it properly)...

 

[Orang Utan]

They're the snobs as they sneer at me for choosing Saintsbury's Gold granules!,

Yeah I think it's just a matter of taste.

Instant coffee is fine too, but different to freshly made so that's maybe why you don't like it.

 

[Orang Utan]

It does taste different, of course. Nicer.

If you're saying instant tastes nicer, I take back the snob and will call you common instead.

You have to buy a massive machine! Fuck that! It needs to be convenient when you are half asleep.

Nah you just need an aeropress.

 

[xenon]

What's difficult about the machine. Put water in. put coffee in filter. Put cup underneath, switch on.

Those taste vile and they are cold. You need a warm drink. If only tea was highee in caffeine....

Same applies to instant though.

I'm more of a tea drinker TBF though I've had a couple of Americanos today.

My folks only have those tiny little thin china mugs, but there is a massive mug, a pint I think. I have five with that. And have a 1/3 milk/coffee ratio.

Fuck, that's a lot of coffee!

I only ever have it when staying at my folks as I don't sleep well there.

That's breakfast. It just about wakes me up.
Don't have any more that day.

It sounds like you need something a bit stronger to kick start your day. Speed perhaps?

That would kill me!

 

[SpookyFrank]

And Ritalin?

Ritalin is great for people who hate kids.

Ritalin is great for people who hate kids.

There is something in that, yes...

 

[SpookyFrank]

There have to be a few areas in life where you don't compromise.

Isn't that George Clooney's catchphrase when he's peddling...instant coffee?

 

[DotCommunist]

[skyscraper101]

Last two times I went to Brazil I ended up taking a jar of 'Tasters Choice' (American version of Gold Blend) because my in-laws liked it, and they don't got any equivalent to gold blend, just the horrid cheap and nasty nescafe which even I hate. The irony wasn't lost on me though.
