drunk about 5 cups of coffee today - now I need to sleep in order to wake up for work at 6:30am, it's not happening - trying to kill the hype with beer

here's a recipe for love....

a nice cup of strong black coffee, a couple of cardamon pods and a shot of Irish Jameson whiskey

ps: d3 - drink milk or water (lots of water.... milk is yuk TBH)

either a plain cup of joe, light and sweet...

french pressed and black...

or my favorite: a very dry cappuccino with a shot of caramel or vanilla--and I mean dry. If I pick up the cup and it feels full, i hand it back and tell them to start over.

very specific about my caps....that's why i bought a machine to do it right and do it at home....

wow.....feelin a bit like miss triple threat d leavin that one out to hang...hehehe

I was in Starbucks yesterday getting a cup, and this guy walked up and said "Can I get a large coffee?"... it took me a while to realize that that was the extent of his order, I kept waiting for some sort of modifier or addition, but that was it. Its weird to me that thats weird.

fuck starbucks, why would i want to pay 3 pound for something made with burnt beans, at a horrendously weak strength, which i'd probably need to add about 3 extra shots to for it to have any point??

right now i'm drinkin my super strength coffee (big up to zubee for the recipe/idea), which is where you make it using a filter machine as normal, then pour the coffee into the water reservoir and re-filter it through a fresh filturfull of coffee

there you have it - double strength

its a little bit

but also

at the same time

ie. words cannot describe

CORRECT.

However coffee does not suck tnuc. It's a beautiful drink and i don't go a day without at least 1 or 2 cups.

Stronger & thicker the better.

Big up the caffeine heads!
