What kind of coffee do you drink? Light, medium, dark? With what in it? I’m curious.

    I have instant coffee in all sorts, by accident I just pick up whatever when I go shopping it doesn’t matter the roast, I don’t notice the difference :| . I use cashew milk and one tsp of sugar, or no sugar.

    Medium or dark roast with one equal packet. On the weekends, I sometimes add a teaspoon of half and half to my coffee

    Medium to dark roast. Mostly always black. Sometimes when I'm feeling a bit wild, I'll add some cinnamon to it. If I have a cold, I might add some peppermint.

    <3<3 coffee. Gotta be a med-dark roast. I actually find it less bitter than light roast.
    Mornings will be a 6oz Flat white, and afternoons enjoy a Long Black (not as watery as an americano). ☕ Never any sweetener or sugar added.

    I like my coffee like I like my Death Star: on the dark side, and powerful enough to destroy a planet.

    I drink it black, although I've been thinking of adding something to it because I need to up my protein intake.

    I drink 20oz of dark roast black almost everyday. Grind the beans and use a french press to make it myself.

    Kroger premium pod or ground - with sugar free hazelnut creamer or sometimes just a regular flavored creamer. I don’t measure. This is daily “treat”. I don’t usually have a craving for sweets. If I do it’s 1-2 pieces of dove chocolate. But doing my coffee this way seems to keep my sweets at bay.

    I also like making it iced.

    I recently saw people adding vanilla or caramel premier protein to their coffee. I have bought it to try it that way.

    Medium or dark roast, one cancer packet (either pink or yellow, depending on my mood).

    When I use the machine at work I double down - a normal cup topped with a double- or triple-espresso shot.

    MOAR CAFF-EEN!

    I like light roast best for drip coffee, cold brew, and French press; I use a dark roast or espresso beans for my moka pot and espresso machine. Lately I've been using Cafe du Monde (blue can, no chicory) in the moka pot, pouring it over ice, and adding juuuuust a little milk or sweet cream. If I have hot coffee I tend to just use creamer, usually hazelnut, a scant tablespoon's worth.

    Honestly, I'll drink coffee just about any way its given to me. Cheap coffee needs a little more cream/milk, but a good quality coffee can be drank black.

    That being said, I usually buy a medium roast coffee and add maybe a tablespoon of sugar-free coffee creamer or a splash of milk with splenda. I don't need much in my coffee.

    I drink Peet's Decaf Dark Roast. I am trying to avoid caffeine. Peet's has a full bodied flavor and no aftertaste. I also like Starbucks Decaf.

    I like my coffee like my soul - Dark and black. Me at Starbucks - "The largest black coffee you have, please." "No, no room for cream or sugar." "No, really, no room for cream or sugar."

    I still get room for cream and sugar. >.<

    I heard someone at the coffee shop the other day order a non-fat decaf latte. I about fell out of my seat.

    I've ordered that. That order translates to "I'm a traveling ovo-lacto vegetarian who needs more protein, but it's close to bedtime." ;)

    I use to always put milk in my coffee until I discovered I was drinking my calories. Now I drink it black.

    Never heard of this additive. Thanks for the mention, I'll check it out.

    Usually a medium roast...grind the beans fresh every morning. Usually Colombian or Guatemalan in origin. I usually drink my coffee black, but sometimes my wife gets a dark roast and I cut the bitterness with some 1/2 and 1/2.
