Try them CT. Life's too short.

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

Folgers at home, with international delight sometimes (Mint chocolate truffle is delish)
Keurig sometimes - then I go out for all the artificially flavoured coffees such as Island Coconut, Jamaica me Crazy, Winter Carnival etc etc

Tea - Tim Hortons apple cinammon is lovely.

I couldnt drink instant coffee now.... ugh

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

I never drink instant coffee (probably only bought a few jars in my life) but in Old Mexico all the cafes used to have jars of pre-sweetened Nescafe sitting on every table; the granules were sugar coated. Regular had a red label I think and the pre-sweetened had a green label.

Ive just had to replace a Rather Expensive coffee machine due to my "dear" son using it to make French Vanilla :( (that stuff stinks - never mind the taste abomination; & it's impossible to remove the taint from the machine)

The cheapo Rival seems to produce decent enough results using Folgers, or when I'm feeling rich, fancy-dancy Fair-trade stuff from the even fancier-dancier store round the corner.

I once, briefly, lived somewhere that the cafe owner made tea by heating the water, (a lot of)milk and tea leaves together in a pan. The locals were so :ohmy: at the idea of paying for tea, that you weren't considered to be getting value for money unles you added at least two dessert spoons of sugar to a tumbler (like the ones you got at primary school in the seventies). Apparently you can get used to anything, even though I've never taken sugar in tea before or since.

I had indian Gujarati friends who made their tea, chai. that way. Milk, sugar and spices simmered in a pan. I disliked it muchly.

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

Real chai...yummy!

I was amused to watch a worker on a building site in Nigeria pile 8 (yes, eight) heaped teaspoons of Milo into a large mug. Then eight sugars, topped off with 8 teaspoons of milk powder.

Of course he was basically getting a free lunch by doing this. Subsequently tea/ coffee ingredients were issued monthly person by person.

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

A bit mean, don't you think? Excess Milo is not going to vary a construction budget by much.

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

Mean on the other Milo drinkers who after a week into the month had to go with out- ditto sugar takers. My only gripe was with the speed the powdered milk disappeared, coffee was never a problem.

That vile nescafe 3in1 proved to be the answer.

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

What's Milo?

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

A kind of chocolate powder.

That actor who used to be in Me Mammy. :lol:

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

I'm actually working in front of it right now so thought I'd show you. I may organise a wee tasting tomorrow or Sunday to determine what subtle differences there are, (in the interest of product research of course) but I can't see myself falling prey to the scam these distillers are trying to work by pawning off their dusty old stock that is probably way past it's best before date when I can get a bottle of good fresh whiskey for half the price.

Re: Which coffee do you drink at home?
 

Nice. The Bowmore is my fave amongst that selection. Have not tried the Auchentoshan. It might be an idea to try the Laphroaig last. No scams involved, it's different whiskey.
