What makes me wonder is those people who dont like something but go onto a forum thread to announce it and then say others spout guff.

It was a half joking response to Gwylan's quote from another thread.

Oh and I never said I didn't like Coffee, just that I can barely drink the stuff.

You have to admit that, like wine, beer, etc etc, there is a lot of old tosh spouted by people about it!* 🤣

I am happy to drink instant (although I feel like it should be classified as an entirely separate drink), but given the choice, a very small but syrupy espresso from Italy or somewhere other than the UK where it seems to be very weak. I have to be able to taste the coffee 1/2 hr after you have finished it.

Otherwise Old Brown Java or Monsooned Malabar. Yes, I think I can tell the difference.

Black & strong if percolated.
Instant, when I do drink it, ha some full fat milk added.
No sugar in either..

Love proper coffee, especially given i worked for a major coffee manufacturer. Definitely black and strong. Sadly now reduced to decaff due to BP issues. Can't stand a certain original coffee much prefer the gold stuff. The tinned stuff is just fine blend instant with added bits to look good.

Flat white. Fortunately I have three top quality coffee shops within easy cycling distance of me. I don't understand people that pay more for terrible coffee in a chain when a really great coffee in an independent coffee shop is about 10-15% cheaper.

I use a sage creatista at home with coffee pods from Colonna coffee (way better than Nespresso pods).
