    What do you call strong coffee ?

    I got a French press now. Put two 1/8th scoops of grounds in for 1 cup of coffee. That should do.

    You gotta let it sit for awhile too. A couple minutes before I pour the bitch

    Three teaspoons Nescafe gold.
    One finger Jamieson Irish whiskey.
    Sugar to taste.

    Very nice start to the day.

    I enjoy a cup of Cappuccino in the morning. I always wakeup early 5-6 am, wife sleeps like a baby (very jealous) . But best part of the day, nice , cool, and quiet, I sit by the pond, feed the fish, and drink my coffee.
    But unfortunately last week I started experiencing some issues with my heart rete , it was diagnoses as PVC (Premature ventricular contractions) and was said that it could be caused by the coffee , so I am off the coffee for a while.

    By the way, What's up with the Smileys in this forum? Where is the "Sad" emoji ? The top few should be Happy, Sad, LOL, angry, etc. The emptions most people express most often, Who decided that a French man waving a flag or a striper. would be what people in this forum look for first? Why dont they just combine the two and gave an emoji of a Frenchman looking for a stripper then?
    See what happens when you don't have your coffee in the morning? Shit like that get you upset.
    So I need an upset emoji, where is the upset emoji?

    Are you checking out the 'more' in the emoji section. Should be lots to choose from there Buck.

    I'd get a second opinion on the coffee thing as well. I literally can't start the day without a cup of java.

    Cheers

    Different and very telling.

    Bon Cafe Espresso beans, grind them. 7 table spoons of ground coffee, 40oz water. Turn on drip machine. 6 nice 6 ounce cups of coffee made. Perfect for myself and the wife. Black only black.

    By the time I get to the "more" section, all I need it the "angry" emoji LOL
    Yea I am the same way with my coffee in the morning, the suggested medication, but I want to give it a chance without the coffee for a while cause I don't want any more meds.

    1/8th of what? How big is the scoop? I put 5 heaping tablespoons in my French press and fill it full.

    Yeah, how much you like something you've been told to avoid is definitely a metric when deciding whether or not to seek more medical advice.

    Especially these days, when medical professionals have so much time on their hands.

    I generally call strong coffee "strong coffee". I always call you a tedious twat.

    Double shot of Moccona Trio Gold in the mornings does it for me.

    Beans from my Thai garden bushes, roasted in the moo ban, ground in my Krups burr grinder, brewed 6 cups Bialetti moka pot.

    Black, no additives.

    The roaster grows tons every year, his roaster machine is the size of sofa, sells his crop all over Thailand as well as Asia.

    A tray full of GOLD is not worth a moment in time.
