Just venting a bit... my Monday morning started with a bang when my coffee machine refused to brew coffee.. true, she's an old - and temperamental - lady who often requires water/beans refilled and grounds cleared before she acquiesces to work, but this morning's stunt is a bit too much even for her... luckily we have a spare capsule-munching thing so I did get my caffeine fix... which made me wonder... what's your morning choice of beverage?

coffee...coffee...coffee...
it's a bit like Monk........
I have a normal coffee machine for the morning and fill it with a strictly measured amount of water and coffee powder--> I've tried the ratio several times.
I also only use 1 specific type of ground coffee
Only when everything is perfect and harmonious does the coffee taste excellent....

For during the day in between I have a Nespresso capsule machine

I know what you mean! I don't EVER experiment with my morning coffee - I even buy sweetener pills instead of sugar - not because I'm diabetic, but because teaspoons of sugar are never the same amount of sugar which affects the taste - but the pills - the SAME brand always - together with the not-to-be-changed settings on my coffee machine guarantee the same taste.

Well, I just switched to tea, even though I have a coffee emoji in my siggy. I was having stomach issues and realized that coffee was the culprit. Actually, it was the Half and Half, but I can't drink coffee w/o that. I still drink coffee once in a while and LOVE the small, but my morning brew is now tea. Good ole' Lipton tea bags and I keep the tea bag in my cup for added caffeine.

I say tea, but most days it's really tisane, the "correct" name of herbal teas. Also juice. I don't get caffeine until later in the day with diet Coke.

Coffee! I'm not a snob about it. The hubby makes the coffee every morning. If for some reason he doesn't get it made I will go for a quick fix of instant coffee!

wow...I just learned something new... tisane is such a neat concept - I need to tell my family about it. My daughter, who loves harvesting mint from the garden and brewing her tea, will have a blast...
