My Coffee Habits

I like good coffee (obviously, I am the owner of this blog :-) ), so you might think I drink it all day long.
But for me it's a bit like wine - I like and appreciate coffee, but if I drink too much it does not do me good...
Caffeine has a strong influence over me - a little makes me feel good, vital, clear and optimistic.
A lot of it makes me irritable and nervous.
So I drink only 2, sometimes 3, cups a day.
But I make sure it is good coffee that I will enjoy.
During the week it will generally be in the office: in the morning when I arrive and after lunch.
The office has supply of nice Brazilian Coffee, roasted and mixed to create good Turkish Coffee.
At the weekend I drink at home, sometimes my home roasted coffee, and sometimes what I buy at select coffee shops. I will tell about my home roasting in a future post.
I make it using either my Moka, Brikka, or French Press.

When I am at a coffee shop I will try to see if the Barista on shift knows what he is doing. If so, I will take espresso. If not, I will think again, and maybe get a cappuccino.

Thats for me.

What are your coffee habits?
