Where do you get your coffee from?

Other - local roaster/coffeehouse where the beans/teas are fresh. Best espressos I have ever had. And of course there are regular customers, so you get to know people and even the owners, who are awesome people.

LOL. Best post I've seen around here in a long time, angus.

I've heard some coffee stories before, but that takes it.

From my Bunn with 100% Colombian (I'm a stickler about that... Colombian coffee is the best).. usually with milk.  No sugar.

I liked that when I used to drink cup after cup after cup, but I've cut way back on coffee consumption in recent years and actually find the darker beans like French/Vienna Roast and espresso more savory (no cream, no sugar). The trick is to measure it right and not burn it. The guy who runs the coffeehouse I frequent, and who can make a knockout espresso practically blindfolded, was explaining to me that 18-22 seconds are ideal to brew an espresso, so the ground beans need to be packed just right; longer and it cooks it and it's nasty.
