How do you make your coffee?

I voted cafetiere. I also use a little espresso machine, just the type that you heat on the ring.

I use instant because all of the brewed coffee from percolators over here are disgusting not like star bucks - they leave a real bitter aftertaste and that does not sit well with me. It is a shame becuase I have a percolator and cannot get the States until late this year to get some starbucks coffee.

Any nice PT'ers will to take pity on me and send me some?????? I love their Java coffee.....

I've read percolators make the WORST coffe because it keeps recycling the coffee over and over again. Making a strong bitter, old coffee taste to every cup. All that said, I can't stand coffee so I don't make it. But I LOVE the smell of cooffee!

Other. I get in the car and get other people to make it for me on my way to work. (Go through the Tim Hortons drive through)

I chose cafeteria as well as I almost always get my cappuccino or espresso(don't drink american type coffee) in a caffe/bar. And they all use the large caffeteria with the press. The italians would argue the point of it being french though I can guarentee that. COFFEE IS ITALIAN !!! LOL at least for them. When I do make it at home I use a small espresso machine.
Similar to this

But I keep telling hubby I NEED a Gaggia Cappucino machine. Like this little one.

I've always loved that idea that coffee is Italian. I've never seen a coffee tree there!

Instant French Vanilla Cappuccino - Drinking regular coffee (cream) tastes nasty to me after all these years of quitting smoking. Only time regular coffee tastes good if it's made a coffee shop.

I make folgers instant at home since I am the only coffee drinker. I use a fileter coffee machine at work and I treat myself to starbucks at least a few times a week. I am a coffee fiend.
