Lavazza espresso beans through my 10 cup moka pot with sweetened condensed milk over ice. Yeah liquid crack but I have a five day old baby and a two year old. I need the fix right now. I was reading Mr. Moos moka pot thread and I either owe him thanks or blame for making me remember how much moka pot coffee I used to drink in school. Only a mild body quiver so far.

Gorilla Coffee espresso blend from whole foods. I really like this roaster--they put the roasted on date on the bag.

Blame would be fine. Moka + sweetened condensed milk/ice is an excellent way to develop a quiver factor. Nice choice. Recently, enroute to Maine, I stopped at Miss Saigon for lunch in DC and finished up with two viet-iced jobbies. Drove 500-miles after without a yawn. Nice.

I hereby commit to KenyaAA moka plus sweetened condensed iced coffee this weekend.

Having a mug of Caribou blend from my Keurig. It is nice to have it sitting right next to my desk throughout my 12 hour shift. The challenege will be to keep stocked up over this year. Especially once it starts getting cold here.

This morning, finished off a can of TJ's Fair Trade Organic Bolivian Blend. This evening, drinking a cup of TJ's House Blend (Columbian and Sumatra blend) in my Flame's coffee cup (from Flame's Restaurant in San Jose, CA). Black of course...

Local Okinawan grown coffee, from my french press. The Japanese are so meticulous....delicious is the result, as usual.

Japanese grown coffee through a French Press? Oh, that sounds like liquid Heaven. Makes me want to go and dump this Folger's and go hunt for something exotic and pay the $12 per pound!

Broke down and bought something good, as forums are a really bad influence on me. Picked up a pound of Raven's Brew House Blend and their Resurrection Blend. The House Blend through the Mr. Coffee 4-Shot Espresso machine will definitely kick you into a waking state real fast!

I know what I'm having for breakfast!

Singing Rooster Haitian Blue Mountain in my French Press. Mmmm mmmm good. Pretty similar to the better known Jamaican version but cheaper and a good deed all in one.

Just some Breakfast blend from my Keurig. I just dream that it's some of the stuff you guys are drinking. I guess I'm just too lazy to go through the roasting, grinding and pressing. I suppose one of these days I will buy a press and some beans and give it a go. I've already got a burr grinder in the cabinet collecting dust so I might as well

Brazil Mogiana sometimes called "yellow bourbon". City roast done in my french press. Apparently most brazilians are used as part of on expresso blend but I'm very lucky to have an insanely good coffee store in my town and they do this particular bean in a city roast and sometimes a viennese which I haven't tried yet. So if you're ever passing through Binghamton, NY (yeah right) and you love coffee don't miss this place. Best espresso I've ever had and that includes lots of places I've tried on visits to NYC

Via @ USO- donated by the friendly, and caring people from the USA. I roasted a whole bunch of stuff before I headed out the door to Afghanistan. My wife shipped it to my address after she dropped me off, it should arrive today. I cant wait for some decent coffee. Thanks to all the people back home that donated us the Via, though.

McD's iced coffee. With cream and some sugar. Living the high life boys!

This translates too: forgot to buy the Cafe Bustelo to make myself some Cuban coffee.
