Coffee Appreciation Thread

BubblesGoesBooBubblesGoesBoo Posts: 3,590 Community Veteran
Please, Let's just take a moment to appreciate the founder of coffee ... how he has helped us struggle through long revision nights .... help us get up in the morning after the night before ... and just for making coffee taste so damn fine, which brings us to this question, How do you like you're coffee?

Latte, Cappuccino, normal.....

Think mine has to be Starbucks latte or carte noire black coffee, no sugar :)

    IMO Costa and Starbucks coffee is shite! I buy my beans and grind them myself and have it black with 2 sugars

    Starbucks coffee tastes like dishwater, Costa is average but having learnt about how the roasting process they do they really take care of their coffee

    It's a short drink, kind of like a latte but with less milk. It's 6oz as opposed to the 8/12 oz lattes you get.

    Clearly learn to never take coffee for 20p ;) - Our college coffee machine is lush, however the hot chocolate out of the machine is ucky, I love the hot chocolate they make at the counter at college, and the one in the outside machine, omg, lush :3

    Clearly wouldn't get through the college day without lodes of coffee XD
