I drink more coffee than that.

I have had an assortment of full sized drip machines. They are all

about the same IMHO. In a pinch I have just used a strainer with the

paper filter and slowly poured hot water through it. Same stuff comes

out.







I drink two cups of coffee a day, usually, and never more than three.





Must be a Navy/CG/IBM thing.I drink about a quart of coffee a day but

I make it fairly weak by JPS standards. If I get a designer coffee I

want half a cup and fill it up with water.

I used to like 7-11 coffee before they tried to be Starbucks.





The "Starbucks" sort of coffee is too strong for my taste.

If the Starbucks coffees are too strong for you' then you're a girlie-girl.

Actually, Mr Nofinger, this is one point I have to agree with him on.
Shocking eh? Starbucks tastes like it was brewed two days ago and
kept warm. Awful stuff.


To me, the coffee tastes like the bean was burned.

Try the Verona. It's strong, but very smooth.

I can take my cup to 7/11 and get good coffee for 99 cents. And not deal
with some dropout called a barista for $2.

Agreed, but if your wife really wants a double mocha frappucino malted
Mc'Gurie, what the hell you
gonna do?

My wife is both thrifty, and does not drink coffee.

There you go. You lucked out, big time!
