...and I am totally tweaking right now.

I just bought a big Espresso machine and have been making coffee far to frequently. Mostly it's just to practice my milk-texturing techniques, and then of course I can't waste the delicious java - and I must drink it. ALL OF IT!

So far I've mastered most coffee styles, straight espresso of course, macchiato, cappuccino, latte. etc. And those are just the ones I drank this afternoon :ohsnoes:

I don't know why this needs to be on the Indy Mogul forums, but I guess we can chat about how much we like coffee... you do like coffee don't you?

you do like coffee don't you?

Especially with a shot of red bull when editing late at night.


And please, old women, don't lecture me on the use of red bull. It's like Buckley's, it tastes like shit but it works. That being said, don't abuse it kids, it's like a drug.

I really only like frappachinos. I'm not sure why but normal coffee just isn't my thing. I love tea though.

I hate the taste of coffee, it's just too bitter for me. Maybe in the future I'll like it. But for now, I'll stick to tea, hot chocolate, and those things at starbucks that are in the glass bottles, the strawberry one.

That would explain a lot.

Anyway, coffee is amazing. I don't know what I'd do without it.

Tea's good. Hot chocolate's good. Mochas are good. Coffee beats 'em all. Always.

They call that Christian Crack for a reason. Those energy drinks are seriously bad news.

Coffee just is not my cup of tea.

I'm more of an alcohol man myself. Nothin' gets the day going like a couple shots of whiskey

Im hypersensitive to caffeine. One small cup of coffee keeps me going for about 8 hours. I never drink mediums or larges, id be tweaked for a whole day. If I drink coffee after 3pm I def wont be sleeping that night.

Only time I drink it is immediately when I wake up, before going to the gym. And thats the only reason I drink it, for weightlifting energy. If I am not lifting, I dont touch coffee. Stuff is crazy strong for me.

You're lucky, I could drink ten cups and barely feel a thing. Funny how different people are.

Haha, I'm glad everyone loves coffee! I just made a macchiato and a cappuccino with my brand new Espresso machine. I'm getting pretty good at it. Not this good mind you:

...but still pretty good.

Anyway, Red Bull - evil brew or magic potion? I used to drink this stuff a fair bit a couple of years ago, but honestly it was for the taste more than the effect. I think Red Bull has a great flavor - kinda like medicine. It should taste gross, but I still like it.

Of course, I wouldn't overdo the Red Bull - people have died from drinking to much of that stuff...

Well the reason I bought a espresso machine in the first place was to stop buying from Starbucks!

Starbucks' coffee is okay - but it's too weak, and it costs a lot if you buy it day after day. Just because it comes in giant cups doesn't make it good coffee either...

I usually try to go to small cafes instead of the big chain stores anyway. I used to spend a fair bit of money on store-bought caffeine, so now that I can make my own good stuff in the morning, I should save a lot of money.

Oh and coffee tastes better with no sugar. Anyone agree with me?

With all this talk of crazily sugared-up energy drinks, I'm betting that you are all double-cubers at least ;)

I don't like sugar in my coffee. Turns it into a candy drink. McDonald's makes a good
brew of coffee. I think they put radioactive molecules in their coffee because that stuff
stays hot forever.

Very informative ^^

Anyway,

COFFEE RULEZZ!!!! It's my baby. However, I prefer espresso, such as a medium mocha with skim milk and no whipped cream from Caribou Coffee. It's so much better than Starbucks. What do you guys think? Is Starbucks or Caribou Coffee better???

I say Caribou.

Wait, so if you add sugar to coffee you get liquid candy? How much sugar are you using?

Oh, and coffee sucks.

I myself don't like sugar in my coffee, and the only place where I've enjoyed it with milk is in Paris. Plus, taking it black is healthier.
