What's in your cup this morning Gaf? I'm sipping my usual pour over. Nothing special--beans from a local roaster, imported from Honduras.

International Coffee Day (29 September) is an occasion that is used to promote and celebrate coffee as a beverage, with events now occurring in places across the world. The first official date was 1 October 2015, as agreed by the International Coffee Organization and was launched in Milan. This day is also used to promote fair trade coffee and to raise awareness for the plight of the coffee growers. On this day, many businesses offer free or discounted cups of coffee. Some businesses share coupons and special deals with their loyal followers via social networking. Some greeting card companies sell National Coffee Day greeting cards as well as free e-cards.

[God Enel]

I’m new to the coffee game. Bought an espresso machine and I’m totally open to new tastes and brands.
Can you guys recommend some good coffee?
I have a local one here in Germany and it’s delicious

Which machine did you get?

If possible, check with the local shops to see what beans they roast in-house or at the very least, would recommend. Buy bags and try it out at home.
For all things coffee, I tend to watch James Hoffmann on YT:

THE BEST PART OF WAKING UP IS FOLGERS IN YER CUP

I just got an Aeropress last week.
It really surpassed my expectation, I like the sort of "clean" taste from the coffe (I've always hated the French press taste) and it's fairly easy to use and clean. Will definitely take it with me this summer when going camping or picnicking at the lake.

 

[Ballthyrm]

French press with a medium grind from single origin arabica coffee (i really like Ethiopian coffee).
Drink it Black and made with a double walled, double filtered press like this one.

Or course drink it from a fancy cup that let the heat radiate away in my hands.
It taste even better if it rains outside .

 

[SpiceRacz]

Mostly drink instant at home.

 

[Cunth]

My fav is the nescafe

 

[teezzy]

Black coffee w a shot of espresso

THE BEST PART OF WAKING UP IS FOLGERS IN YER CUP

Nothing like a cup of Folgers in the morning right before you take your sister to pound town.

 

[Darkmakaimura]

September 29 is my Birthday. Hope someone buys me an iced coffee.

[jufonuk]

I will celebrate this by having some Tea.

I prefer Tea. Also coffee has the reverse effect On me

 

[MrS]

Azera during the day, earl grey in the evening.

 

[Bwesh]

I drink coffee before I sleep.

The one benefit of WFH means it's a Nice Aero-Press coffee every morning. I've got some pre-ground Colombian in the Fridge I'm working through at present, but I'm thinking to go out and get some whole beans from a local roaster during my week off as it's been a while since I've used my coffee grinder. Generally only do one cup of proper coffee a day though, and after that Drink Azera, which keeps the caffeine clock ticking over without giving me the shakes.

 

[EverydayBeast]

Huge fan of McDonald’s premium roast.

I think the name is espresso machine. Only know the German name. When I move to a bigger place, I’ll buy a better one for sure.

That’s the one I have at the moment as I’m living in a tiny ass apartment. have to buy a good coffee grinder/mill(?).

read some reviews and they say it’s a great machine for beginners.

[CrapSandwich]

Happy International Coffee Day, 2022!

I hope everyone is enjoying a nice roast this morning. I've got a blend done by a local roaster and it's phenomenal.

 

[Sabotage]

 

[AJUMP23]

I am going to do about 1/4 mug creamer with some coffee.

 

[Punished Miku]

I've got some dark roast Hawaiian nonsense at the moment, and it's lovely.

No cream or sugar for me.

 

[jason10mm]

I'm too poor to afford that cat scat coffee, but I've discovered that if -I- swallow some whole beans and fish them out the next day, it makes for a pretty good cup of joe, a bit nutty

 

[FunkMiller]

The greatest day of the year.

Coffee is life.
