Even if I could afford starbucks I wouldn't go.....I think I've had a small coffee there once in my life because I ended up there with some friends.

I brew my coffee at home, and dark. And I drink it Black.

I've been meaning to pick one of these up from the dealer so I can pour my little machine's pot in it and go.

Just one word of advice....buy the one that has the handle.

And, cream and sugar for my coffee. Espresso shots are doable though.

Man, you weren't $h!tting! We got about 2" in about 15 min. and the roads were flooded. I'm glad I had the Jeep!

And I need to bail out the TD again.

Sheesh, folks - how can you have such fine tastes in automobiles, then turn around and drink the Yugo of coffee?

You couldn't pay me to drink that swill.

I’d take in my own Dixie cup and pull a shot of water form the bathroom sink in a Starbucks and call that my favorite before I paid that kind of money for something I can make gallons of just fine on my own for a fraction of the price.

Most of the time I just consume mass quantities of Maxwell House at home for minimal money. On occasion, I do go to the Starbucks where I generally get a Chai Latte.

I can't remmeber the last time I went to Starbucks but I believe all I bought was a small regular coffee. Though I do like the iced cafe americano once in a while.

Ever since I got my IRoast2 coffee roaster all other coffee tastes like crap, including Starbucks.

BTW the best coffee ever is from El Salvador, lightly roasted. It has an awesome chocolate flavor!
