Tea or coffee?

I like both tea and coffee. Breakfast is always some strong french press coffee with frothed milk. I'll also make coffee in a stove top moka pot with frothed milk. If I'm really lazy, I'll throw a K cup into the Keurig and make a cup of Dunkin' Donuts blend. And I mean REALLY lazy. If I am in a coffee shop, I'll typically get a latte. After dinner at a restaurant I really like an espresso. But sometimes I enjoy a cup of tea, maybe while watching some TV with the wife during the winter. My preference there is also something strong. My favorite is Lapsang Souchong. It's very smokey with a very distinctive flavor that puts me in a mountain cabin on a lake.

Both...espresso/latte in the morning - usually freshly ground

Tried millions of coffees but Rave’s Italian blend is my favourite. Several espressos each day. The missus likes cappuccinos.
What is that machine? I should know but I'm attracted by what seems to be a modest footprint plus I like my manual levers.

Anyhow espresso/latte in the morning - LP Pro, Tea in the afternoon - teabag

Used to enjoy Rave but just don't drink enough to warrant a 1kg purchase anymore, enjoying Taylors Praline Special atm - 250g lasts me a few weeks nowadays.

Very modest footprint. It’s an Olympia Cremina. Sometimes I do miss the bling of a bigger chrome machine but then I remember I haven’t had to fix it in nearly seven years...
I want one of those. Better yet, I need one of those.

For some reason,I drink 5-7 coffee daily.Firstly black coffee (on Balkan way) then double espresso crema.If you like espresso crema I recommend brikka bialetti,of course if you want to make it home.But if tou prefer black coffee maybe ,,dzeza” coffee pot.

Tea or Coffee?

Every time I ask my Mother that question, it goes like this:
Me : Tea or coffee, Mam?
Mam : Oh I will have whatever you are having!
Me : OK coffee it is.
Mam : Ohh.....Ohhh.....Ohhhhh.......well maybe I'll have half a cup of tea!

Personally, I make a carafe (big jug) of coffee in the morning, it's in a thermal carafe. It lasts until mid afternoon. I usually drink black or green tea after 1700hrs.

Coffee, black, no sugar. Always.

Love espresso! Have a Tassimo for home but instant or cafetiere mug at work.
