    There have been times I have used 6 but that is rare. I have the "big" cup button set to aprox. 2oz so I more often use that and use 3pods.

    Still cheaper than *$ :bounce015:
     
  3. Swarden: let us know how that is! I love African coffees as well, and am just roasting some Ethiopian tonight.
    HoosierTrooper: That actually depends on whether you measure by volume or weight, as far as I know.

    Very true!! Although since I tend to go to the same *$ WHEN I go there they usually just charge me $1 but it took awhile for that to happen. Which is nice of them

    Double Espresso, at least one sometimes two, depends how much of a kickstart I need

    The difference between a Latte and a cappucino is that a cappucino consists of one third foam and less milk whereas a latte is mostly hot steamed milk and very little foam!!

    Must be my English, by 'steamed' I ment getting foam.

    Just bought my wife a box of some Green Mountain Gingerbread k-cups on clearance for $2.50. Said it's regularly $11. She's got the machine at work but won't be back there for some days. Anyone know if this stuff might be good enough to stock up on at that price?

    Yup. You'll find coffees listed as "Breakfast Blends" are of a lighter roast for that very reason - that early morning jolt :eatdrink013:

    It's a lighter roast, if I remember. If you're a strong coffee guy, brew it small. I liked the pumpkin they released at the same time, but again, same issues, if I can call it that.

    Pacific makes a caffinated shaving cream.

    I drink my coffee with international delight caramel macchiato. But I also make my coffee much stronger than most people can tolerate.

    I usually start with Doughnut or Breakfast blends for morning/afternoon times. Later on I'll switch to darker blends like Montecristo 1935 Havana blend. Cream with raw sugar.

    I know this is heresy, but just found this and got to try it.

    I drank regular Nescafe for six months in the African bush; I actually really enjoy it.

    I always thought Nescafe had the best instant coffee.
