So I recently acquired a French press and am loving my coffee this way...so much richer than standard drip brew.
What are your favorite ways to prepare your coffee? :D

I'm a fan of French press and have one at home but frankly I rarely have the time to enjoy it. I'm an after lunch kind of coffee drinker which forces me to take whatever's readily available. That usually means burned bitter pre ground, instant or kcup.

I'd also like to give a shout out to the first brave sumbitch that decided, "hey, let's roast the seeds found inside this berry, grind them up, and then pour hot water on the grounds and let steep." Someone died before we got safe coffee! :eyespop:

I've been using a french press since I started drinking coffee roughly 20 years ago. I'd love a proper machine one day, but I really don't drink enough coffee to justify one. I pretty much have one cup a day now.

1) Fill moka pot with coffee and sugar
2) Heat that baby up
3) Wait for that dark sweet syrup to come out
4) Add milk (lots of it)
5) Add condensed milk for good measure.
6) Re-enact the scene below
That's how we roll :thepirate

Seriously, if there's a reason I don't believe in God is because I can't think of an all-loving creature that forgot to automatically add sugar and cream to coffee beans... God's most cruel mistake :mad:
(In all seriousness though, the sugar is actually useful: It prevents the grounded coffee from going all the way to the cup... so now I get all flavour and no coffee grounds)

If you're getting grounded up coffee in your cup, you clearly need better coffee technology. Seriously though, get a french press. The normal Bodum brand presses are pretty much the norm, and not expensive (though I have no idea what they go for in Brazil). The result is very good coffee.
You can go and ruin it with all those other things later :p

Are we really indulging Lira on this? Come on.
I had a lot of other comments cooked up, but I've been drinking and am old. :/
