    My hunny likes Eight O'clock brand hazelnut, Keurig coffee maker. I usually like the McCafe brand at home. At work on night shift, this is my arsenal. Hope the 1850 is good, got 2 bags on clearance, $4.86/bag. IMG_20190928_011715962.jpg

    Sounds gooder, let me know. I don’t mind changing beans up as long as it tastes ok. Never know if you run into a deal too.

    A teaspoon in my favorite old victor coffee mug is just right for me.:)
    I get some grade b dark syrup, I like the flavor best in my coffee.

    I see you are from NY, The victor coffee mugs were made by the Victor porcelain insulator company in Victor NY. I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of them. Interesting story, I believe they made them for the navy in WWII because they were heavier and less likely to spill on ships.

    Normally I’m not one to microwave any cups of coffee but if a mug has soup... then I’d want to be on the safe side!

    Hm looking to see where I could find one, they did make at least million of them....

    Cup of the day. I thought it was Columbian Supremo in the bag, not so. French roast. I find I like my coffees as I like bourbons. They aren’t super varied but profiles show up. Never been a fan of that coffee that’s flavored, made the mistake of making that for my dad some 20
    Years ago and while he said thanks, I saw him really wash out that coffee pot a couple pots later. Some sort of weird cherry that managed to really spread.. Yeck.

    Kinda sorta but not really familiar with them. Have heard of them but more familiar with Corning. That is more in my area.

    Just found this thread.

    Coffee? Hot and black, please. No sugar.

    I've reheated countless mugs of Joe in the microwave.

    Right where I want to be.
    Too much coffee, perchance? :coffee:
    Wait, nope, that's unpossible.
