Do you happen to love coffee? If yes, what is your favorite preparation type, favorite beans' origin, favorite aroma/flavor?

Absolutely. But just one a day. I make my wife and I a cup each every morning.
Why just one? In my hay day (age-30-40) it was a madhouse at the plant I was helping open. 16-20 hour days sometimes but averaged a good 12almost everyday. I hit a max saturation of 14 mugs a day. After I came to grips with the stomach knots and the clenched jaw I went cold turkey with just a Timmies on the way into work.
I feel much better these days...and I swore off Timmies.

My prep is pretty simple.
Two grounds, one Folger's Classic the other Zavida's Hazlenut/Vanilla Beans that I grind myself.
I put water to the 6 cup mark, add 3 level tbsp of each and a gently rounded 7th tbsp of Folger's.
My dad used to say 'One per cup plus one for the pot'.

Don't even get me started on cappuccinos or espressos.
I sosoooo miss Europe.

i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag
that's a happy bag of lettuce
this car smells like cartilage
nothing beats a good video about fractions

A Finnish neo-noir prog folk band from the late 60s, never got too much exposure.

My son is heavily into coffee and we get a regular supply of beans from Pact. All sorts of weird and wonderful flavours (allegedly, although I don't really get them myself).

I drink a lot, up to 8 cups a day, but I'm not into the art of it, I have a pot of Folgers on most of the day.

I never drank coffee until about 5 years ago when my doctor told me it is good for your liver.  Now I love it, dark and no cream or sugar, but have to keep it to a cup or two a day because it makes my heart dance around, but my liver is doing great.  Now I just like to explore different kinds, but tend to prefer the South American blends.
