    No I didn't. I deliberately excluded non-coffee or tea drinkers from the poll.

    Coffee snobbery? Maybe in certain parts of Sydney. Me, I just drink it because it tastes good and wakes me up.

    Are you having a bad day today?

    Ohhh goodness is it that time already??

    Coffee has to be brewed under pressure, reminds me of the rest of my staff - the reason I'm not!!

    Cheers,

    As a proliferated snob, (I've always wanted to be one ) I prefer 3 scoops of Vittoria Italian Blend in a small plunger into 1 mug. Better than Aerostart first thing in the morning.

    Jesus, Termite, that'd get the old ticker thumping :eek:

    Vittoria Espresso for me. Got a cappucino machine for the office from the kids for Father's Day last year.

    Lavazza espresso for me. Had a home espresso machine for years, wouldn't be without it. I only have one coffee a day though.

    What are you, a massochist or something? You don't get to be the dillapidated wreck that I am on only ONE cup a day man, you realy have to abuse your body. I'm living proof that you can live through the 60'S though I don't remember much about them.

    I drink both tea and coffee. I drink a lot Jasmine tea at work (how nice they name it after my daughter) and drink coffee occasionally. I think Chinese tea is very good for your body.

    I don’t believe in paying $4 or $5 for a cup of coffee. Instant coffee will do me fine.

    Cheers

    Cos I drink most of my coffee at home, and as I don't havs an espresso machine, i mostly drink instant.

    But the poll asked how I prefer it so I voted espresso.

    Should I buy a machine, or will it become another pain in the butt tinker toy which is more hassle than it's worth?
    Boring signature time again!

    If you like coffee, yes. You wont regret it.

    I've only been drinking coffee for 5 years. Not a strong coffee drinker and love Nescafe Gold. Its creamy. YUM! I have to have a cup of tea in the mornings and after dinner, but all others are coffee.

    I use to work in a cafe and I make the best latte's - properly too With the milk and coffee split in the glass. Some of the guys use to ask for some extremely potent mixtures which use to make me cringe.

    Depends what time of day it is.
    In the morning when it's nearly 9.00 and the onslaught is about to start in earnest and I haven't had my third or fourth cup, then I can just chew on the nescafe granules, water is optional :eek: But in the afternoon when I'm just a shredded wreck of my former self then IV drip is good. I usually just have instant but prefer real coffee, should I too get another candidate for the appliance graveyard?
    At night I need decaf or the medication doesn't work, and I end up spending more valuable beauty sleep time doing this sort of thing, wonder if this bulletin board comes in granular form?
    Cheers

    At work it's coffee, ~2-3 cups Expresso from one of the small machines. At home never touch coffee, drink endless cups of tea.
