Maxwell House and skydiving - both good to the last drop.BurlyShirley said:
9 cups of love.
I also like to make Ice cubes out of the strong stuff, and use them for iced coffee.
Cascade Roasters "Rocket Java", very nice dark roast that isn't bitter and has some kick.
For foo foo coffee, Coffee People Mindsweeper (latte made with Black Tiger).

Dark French Roast from a local roaster, ground fine like espresso and brewed up strong in a regular maker. Black.
I like dark french roasts, columbian and kona beans. I also like a lot of the Green Mountain Coffees too 
Caffiend. Really dark roast.
My wife and I are using one of those pod coffee makers and they work great. You can make a cup at a time and it's easily made strong or light.
Not starbucks after seeing that a 12 starbucks in NYC got cited for public health hazards.
I like Dark Roast coffees made in a French Press. Jet Black.
Or straight espresso shots. I actually think these taste better than anything if made correctly.
As far as Starbucks, I actually like their alot of their dark roast coffees, but everytime I go there I always end up waiting behind 15 "Wilson Phillips" looking ladies waiting on their dessert drinks to be made. They need an express lane for the addicts like myself.

I like dark roasted coffee. For some reason I can't make a good cup at home, I think there is some funky reaction going on with my water and coffee maker. We get free Yuban at work, horrible horrible stuff.
Green Mountain or Kona. I hate Starbucks, upsets my stomach
Best coffee in the world. If made correctlyJeremy R said:
Starbucks sucks at making espresso.

You should try a coffee pressWesty said:
Yeah Westy, that is why I use my french press.
I have a nice coffee maker at home, but I don't know what it is, but it makes the most bitter crap on earth. Its not the caffiene either, I can drink espresso all day long, but one cup from that maker and my stomach is fubared.
And SS, the only thing I get from Starbucks is just their regular dark roast coffee.
Oh yeah, another thing that I always get from this local coffee shop is dark roast coffee with a shot of espresso in it. Those rule too.

A lot of home drop coffee makers don't get the water hot enough and you get some really nasty coffee out of them.
Anything thats not out of a can, or that you cant see thru... at least 5 times a day......
Was a big starbucks fan...especially of their caramel machiatto...unfortunatly there ere only 4 people in Southern California that know how to make a proper one. But after discovering that a single cup of that stuff is like 1500 calories I had to give it up. Drinking Pete's Coffee and Tea leaf drip as well as Borders Bookstore brand Seattle's Best.
Anyone happen to know how many grams of sugar is in one packet of that Sugar in the Raw stuff?

You should try roasting your own.
Home roasting with a popcorn popper
I prefer mexican chiappas. it has a nice crisp flavor at a medium to medium light roast and enough caffeine to give an elephant a heart attack. TN doesn't really like it because it makes him too jumpy.

dark roast, either italian or french. beans kept in air-tight room temp container, ground just before brewing. brewer is generic mr coffee which does a surprisingly good job. add half n half to mug, pour coffee over. enjoy.
I like my coffee hot.
Preferably a dark Italian or French roast, done by French press. Sometimes local roastery stuff, sometimes we order from places we've liked in the past.
For more than a cup or two, we actually use a stainless old school style percolator. Don't laugh; a good percolator can actually make good coffee. To make it last flavor wise, don't leave it in - pour it from there into a carafe to keep warm.

I buy all kinds. Brands be damned... we have a shop up the road that brings in coffee from all over. Right now I'm drinking some from Kona and we have some from Jamaca in the freeezer. I like all roasts as long as they arent too sour and I'm not a big french roast drinker, broad spectrum Medium roast drinker I guess you could call me.
Starbucks is okay... its just good coffee, but its just that... coffee, not worth $4 for a large cup thats for damn sure. Add milk = $2 more

I alternate between my mokka pot and my french press. Kona in thre press and either Starbucks Itialian roast or French roast in the pot.
we get free folgers at work. They like it weak as water. Nasty Stuff

I am surprised to see a lot of people here like their java served as I do- dark roasted, bold, black and pack-that-filter strong. I do not know anyone else who does, and the Starbucks Sumatran venti I slug down(in addition to what I brew and bring in a thermos) after lunch makes all my coworkers cringe. They tend to be, as dhb describes, the Wilson Phillips types but thankfully, they offer to pick mine up for me. For as much of their product as I consume, it's amazing how rarely I actually see the inside of a Starbucks. I get their coffee by the bag from WalMart(French, Italian or Sumatran) and piggyback others' java runs.
Nothing beats a good 'ol Americano or an old fashioned Cappuccino.
Define "old fashioned" cappucino.JohnnyBoyDH said:
