Coffee
« on: August 15, 2018, 02:37:31 AM »
Hello guys!
How are you????
I'm studying design at the college and on this semester's project, I'll try to design a personal coffee making station.
As the basic research on the project, professor asked us to find info about how people drink coffee throught the world, so I thought "why not give a hi" :D
If anybody can help me, in which situations do you usually drink coffee and how is it? big cup and strong? espresso? American coffee? etc
Thank you very much
Cheers

Hi Fernando!

To answer your questions: one cup in the morning, black. I grind my own beans and use a blend that is 65% South American beans and 35% French espresso. I then add a scoop of French/Italian espresso to it. I usually drink about 10 oz.

For the rest of the day I drink tea.

I've recently discovered a supplier of some fantastic coffee beans from Ecuador. I hand grind them with a burr grinder, dump it into a French press, mix in some ground cinnamon and nutmeg, sprinkle some of both spices into my mug, and then poor the brewed coffee into the mug and stir. I add in some heavy cream on occasion. I usually consume about 2-3 cups each morning. Hope this helps!

Hey Fernando, long time!

I don't drink coffee. But I drink one large cup of Earl Grey tea, without milk, at around 2pm every day.

I drink black coffee and like it strong.  I start the day with a large cup when I get up.  That one is 100% caffeine.  After that I'll have 2 more (all around 12oz cups), with less caffeine.  If I have a cup after 1:00pm, it will be fully decaffeinated.

My favorite coffee is Fair Trade Machu Picchu, though most Sumatran coffees work for me too.

I don't drink coffee at all!  I drink tea.  Quite a lot of tea.  Probably far too much tea

A cup of coffee upon waking, the good stuff, which is widely available in urban areas in the States.

Later in the day I'll have tea, Earl Grey or English Breakfast.
