I'd rather drink nothing. I drink instant coffee at work because I find it to be better than nothing. But its usually one of the more expensive instants. I have thought about investing in coffee bags to take in, might actually see if I can get some over the weekend and give them a go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soapy FFC Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Having just recently got a DeLonghi bean to cup machine, I'm still experimenting with what beans to use. Currently I'm using a 50/50 mixture of Lavazza Qualita Rossa and Costco's own label Colombian beans, which gives a very pleasant cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience, two out of every three people who continue smoking weed into their adulthood become google-eyed, anti-vax fruit loops. People who drink coffee become winners. Unless they drink instant. Then they probably end up cleaning the filthy rat-infested floors of the factories in places like Hull and Bathgate where their 'coffee' was birthed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always like to see what other people are having, if theres new stuff on market etc - here is my gear; Cant beat the original I do like the Aldi ground Italian - And I have it as a Cortado with a wee bit of hot milk and demerara sugar - a nice caffeine hit and not too big. Investing a tenner in a coffee grinder and switching from ground to whole bean are the two best decisions that you can make for so little outlay. You'll never go back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grind several times a day. The trick is to always clean up afterwards, so your house isn't covered in brown goop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every couple of days depending on how much gets chucked in. The fresher the better but it's no hardship to have the leftovers the next day. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
