Coffee Era, how do you like your coffee?

[nullref]

Very occasionally, I might find myself in a coffee shop and in the mood for a cappuccino or something—but otherwise, black. (At home, generally single-origin light roasts from a local roaster, mostly brewed in an Aeropress. This summer, I've taken to brewing my afternoon cup directly over ice on hot days. I hadn't tried that before, and quite like it.)

 

[CherryWoodFuton]

Mostly black without sweetener


Sometimes I'm in the mood to do a flat white with splenda

 

[fragamemnon]

Black half the time, other half with the very slightest of cream. Just depends on how I feel.

 

[LProtagonist]

Black as midnight on a moonless night.

 

[Cokomon]

Lately, I've been using little Ripple non-dairy creamer in mine. That stuff is pretty good.

 

[Lobster Roll]

If it's good coffee: black
If it's bad coffee: miss me with that shit

 

[onadesertedisland]

Right now, like gasoline.

 

[mentallyinept]

When I make it, black.

The lower quality it is the more cream and sugar I need to somewhere it though.

 

[Travo]

Just cream.

 

[Shiloh]

I went on a diet, and started drinking it black. There's a rhymy saying about how you don't start adding sugar or cream again.

 

[Gambit61]

Black with one or two tsp of sugar.

 

[Vitet]

Black not American. Without sugar or anything.

 

[Nola]

If it's not complete trash coffee, black.

If it's trash like my last job's community pot, some cream.

 

[mhayes86]

Completely black.

 

[∀∃:ETURNA]

Chemex brewed and served in an Avensi glass with a little bit of maple sugar. No creamer, as that completely ruins the body of the coffee.

Good coffee I'll drink black. Either made with a French press or a v60 depending on my mood and what coffee it is.

Terrible coffee I'll need all the milk you can give me to mask the flavour.

 

[Swimmy]

Black, one sugar

 

[Dan-o]

Crisp!

Correct answer!

 

[Rudr]

Black, freshly grounded, and brewed with a V60.

If it's cheap coffee then definitely adding milk and sugar.

 

[Ashhong]

I'm about to buy a cold brew setup. Anybody use the Takeya cold brew pitcher? Looks solid and not too pricey. Might make my own sweet cream like Starbucks

 

[LakeEarth]

Milk, no sugar.

 

[Earvin Infinity]

Nespresso double scuro
Oat milk
1 tbsp of organic cold-pressed Cacao powder
1 pump of Ghirardelli chocolate sauce
Stir and add ice for an iced mocha

I really prefer just using a jar and then running the coffee through a filter afterwards. The cleaner result makes a big difference to me. I don't like my cold brew maker much.

 

[Soapbox Killer]

Light rand sweet.

20oz cup 4 sugars 4 creams

 

[Deleted member 75819]

Coffee makes me horribly gassy but when I do partake: black with a tiny splash of cream for color.

 

[Dullahan]

I rarely drink it, but when I do, I bet on black.

 

[PandaShake]

with only a bit of sugar

 

[NuclearDistortion]

Black. Adding anything to it kills the flavor.

 

[MDSVeritas]

A splash of half-and-half and two sugars. I find it brings the flavor out to it's best in my preferences.

 

[Deleted member 3183]

A hint of 1 or 2% milk. Just the tiniest bit really. I could probably start drinking it black, but I just like my splash of milk.

 

[Shining Star]

Black usually, never got into fancy coffees.

 

[Nappuccino]

Good beans and black coffee. I generally cannot stand cream or sugar unless it's done to absurd proportions and it's basically coffee flavored milk.

But I make myself 1-2 cups of black coffee just about every day. Love it.

 

[Kitsunebaby]

Black usually. Sometimes a little salt. Sometimes a little nutmeg or cinnamon. Some unsweetened cocoa powder can also be lovely (just a pinch, though).

Never any milk or sugar, though. Just ruins it for me.

 

[hydruxo]

 

[Jombie]

I'm not a coffee snob, so it really doesn't matter. I may drink one cup with sugar and cream, and the rest black.

 

[Kadey]

Hazelnut or French vanilla with irish creme and two packs of sweeteners.

 

[PaulloDEC]

Plenty of milk and plenty of sugar/stevia. Sue me.

 

[Nilou]

Usually hazelnut or french vanilla and a little bit of cream or half and half and splenda. If I brew it at home I typically use 2 splenda packets for a 10oz cup. If I get some iced coffee at places like Dunkin Donuts or such I'll usually get a hazelnut shot and cream/splenda.

 

[Deleted member 46493]

I just do a black coffee on a V60 pour over. I have or had other coffee tools (Chemex, Moka pot) but I am too lazy and stick to what works.

 

[DTJAAAAM]

Black on most days, sometimes mixed with protein isolate. On cheat days, I may indulge in something like the Campout Cold Brew from Dutch Bros..

 

[docannon]

Big fan of cold brew. Usually buy concentrate—Chameleon is my favorite brand by far. Been contemplating making my own for a while now though...

 

[nStruct]

I use the AeroPress and add just a little bit of Splenda

 

[Forearm_Star]

Milk and sugar.

I just got ahold of a French press and plan to give it a shot tomorrow morning.

 

[turbobrick]

I like my coffee black just like my metal.

The occasional sweet coffee is good, but most of the time black. Though I also prefer cold over hot.

 

[Felt]

Double espresso with an ounce of milk, which is between a traditional macchiato and flat white.

 

[Bonestorm]

Black around 10 AM then iced coffee with cream and sugar around 1 PM.

 

[healbite-maritima]

My every day coffee is drip black with beans we grind ourselves with a lil vanilla cream.

I tend to like cold brews with a splash of cream during the summer.

During THIS time of year however, I probably get a pumpkin spice latte once every 1-2 weeks. It's my favorite!!!!

 

[Billy Awesomo]

Dark roast, arabica or robusta , no sugar, no cream, drip coffee. I love and enjoy the aromatic smells and flavors of coffee over all. HOWEVER I still start my mornings with a cup of folgers it's my default coffee (when I don't feel like fancy coffee, it's my guilty pleasure coffee). It's the best part of waking up. (lol, but seriously I do like folgers) Always wanted to try Liberica beans at some point but don't know of any I can buy, same with Excelsa. Oh I also enjoy the occasional Espresso.

 

[Azriell]

I like a nice light roast, black. Smooth and easy to drink. This is my daily driver. K-cups or Panera (their coffee is ok, but more importantly it's cheap and convenient).

Cold brew is my favorite way to drink it, but I've been out of routine with it for awhile now. I had to replace my old grinder, and I knew the exact amount of beans I like just looking at it. I haven't figured that sweet spot out with my new grinder, and I've been too lazy to do the work.

my new go-to for afternoon coffee is iced dark roast with almond milk, cinnamon, and Splenda. Cinnamon in coffee is new to me and I'm in love.

 

[Tawpgun]

If you're drinking REALLY good beans, prepared the RIGHT way. Drink it hot and blacked.

If you're drinking from Starbucks or Dunkin, put milk/cream in it. Their black is gross. Usually even indie coffee places are the same way. It's some young college/high school kid making your coffee after following 2 hours of training.
