Are you a coffee snob?   email this discussion to a friend?

I drove a taxi for years and could even drink coffee from the 7-11 after awhile and call it almost good. These days I am a snob. I make coffee at home in a bodum or the espresso maker with fresh ground beans. I stopped drinking the coffee at work because they were using Folgers and a drip coffee maker from a decade past. Now the new boss is a coffee guy and has introduced us to a fancy Starbucks coffee maker and Starbucks coffee. I am now truly spoiled and a snot when it comes to coffee and I admit tea. How about you can you drink any coffee or does it have to be a certain type made a certain way?

Once you've had good coffee there is no going back,lol.I am a severe coffee snob.I have to be in control of the bean grinding, and whatever goes into a good cup.

I love coffee and drink it all the time. I normally just use creamer. I'm into the sweet stuff I think that is sweet enough for me. My husband drinks that strong stuff it's ok but i do like hill brothers coffee i don't know that isn't to strong for me. I've never tried the espresso coffee maybe some day I will buy one and than try it and see how it tastes with fresh ground beans. how ever i have tried the starbucks coffee and that has a different taste to it, i don't know why that is either. maybe a different brand of coffee?


myLot reputation of 94/100. whywiki (3095)   ranked 366 out of 32,948 in life  5 years ago

I love the way each coffee has different tastes and qualities. I like to try different types all the time.

Im not a total snob when it comes to coffee. I will drink it if someone makes some, but I do prefer Dunkin Donuts coffee over any other coffee, even my own. Thank God we have a Dunkin Donuts within walking distance from our house lol.

We are free of Dunkin Donuts here, which is a shame, we make do with Tim Horton's and many people are addicted to there coffee.

I've always liked coffee, but couldn't drink it because it upset my stomach. But then, about 6 months ago, I tried it again, because it was cold out and I wanted a cup... and for some reason, it didn't respond to me as badly as it had in the past, so now I am a one a day person... if I drink two cups sometimes I have to eat something or else my whole body will feel jittery, and I don't like that, but I do love coffee. ;) Decaf just doesn't taste the same either!


myLot reputation of 94/100. whywiki (3095)   ranked 366 out of 32,948 in life  5 years ago

I agree Decaf just doesn't taste the same, and I feel I am being ripped off when I drink it.

Truthfully the only coffe I can handle is the stuff that taste like hot chocolate. If its cold in the winter I will drink coffee but other than that I am a tea drinker hot or cold I prefer tea over coffee.


myLot reputation of 94/100. whywiki (3095)   ranked 366 out of 32,948 in life  5 years ago

I like tea too, especially when I am at work as I usually let my mug sit on my desk until it is cold and take a big swig, when it is coffee I almost spew as there is nothing worse than cold coffee.

OMG this is a post for my husband. My DH loves coffee so much! He makes a container every morning. He spends so much money on that Geniva coffee.

HE loves to go to Starbucks and everything. He found one store that made coffee well.

I am a tea drinker, sweet tea and hot tea. However I have noticed that since I have been pregnant I am not able to drink as much as in the past due to tenderness in all parts of the body. So for the next three months I will have bid farewell.

I love TEA and consider myself a TEA snob, while my husband is a COFFEE snob.

My hubby hates coffee and even the smell of it. I guess I am lucky that he is tolerant to my coffee fetish. Isn't it strange how coffee people end up with tea people and visa versa.

I prefer tea. A cup of hot tea makes me feel good and fresh. Sometimes I do enjoy coffee.
