Dark and hot with almost no sugar, as someone said before no ice coffee or exotic mixes and of course never decaf.

Maybe I can track some down. Must be somewhere where i can get coffee imported, other than what they have at Timothy's around here. I always have espresso with no sugar, and lately about 2 small posts a day. Gets expensive.

My dad always told me drinking black coffee would put hair on oyur chest. i should have know it was a lie, he drank about 12 cups a day, and had no chest hair whatsoever! Neither do I.

I bleed coffee. When I don't drink coffee, my veins run dry, and I shrivel up and die.

Will do, thanks for the tip. I'll go with Foxtrot.

What kind of Coffee goes with Genesis?

Oh, and they do put nicotine in Tim Horton's coffee. Not very much, it's just under the legal limit, but that is why it is so addictive.

Sick, almost as bad as adding Sugar or Cream right Sweetnighter?.

Timothy's is the best chain by far!



Timothy's is the best chain coffee store in the area(Ottawa-Hull). Love the strong blend.

Its so beautiful

Great topic mr.rob the plant, great topic!

Coffee is an essential part of my life. I LOVE coffee. I even have a bumper sticker on my car that says "Drink more coffee: Do stupid things faster" I've wasted so much money at Starbucks and Caribou (similar to Starbucks, found in eastern US) that its really disgusting. Between prog and coffee I go broke.

And let me just make one thing clear: those who put sugar or cream in their coffee are not ethical human beings. doing such a thing is tantamount to rape and murder.


Again, round of applause for such a great topic

Actually Caffeine is very effective, it takes 1 hour for it to kick in though, but it's a bout the taste more than anything.

I've heard of a technique like that, you need a very fine blend, I've tried that before, but failed miserably.

Yup, I love espresso, currently I have a Columbian blend from Timothy's. I pack as tight as I can. Once I madea  huge mug of Espresso, packed so tight the steam broke the metal interior (150$ down the drain).

You South Americans know you're brew!
