Azera instant is my go to at home. Although I have a range of beans, a stove top, a cafetiere and a grinder at home too. Just depends on time mainly.
At work I have Taylor coffee bags, they are really nice.

Never instant. I might drink it in a hotel room if I am desperate, but there isn’t anything more vile than instant coffee
Always ground coffee in a cafetiere... I tend to bring my coffee beans from Mexico but there is a decent selection here in the UK. My taste has developed in the 18 years I’ve been here to a much stronger coffee than we drink in America (as in the continent) but I still haven’t evolved enough to have it unsweetened. No milk. |

“sock tea” we call it it’s pretty tasteless to me now! unfortunately the beans from Mexico are roasted to match that taste so I have to use much more coffee to pack a punch ...
Which reminds me I need to buy some more coffee. Any recommendations? I prefer already ground, strength 3-4 ... will consider beans too! |

I use Has Bean. They err towards light roast depending on the bean profile. Many other companies exist that have a similar roast and post model. |

"Very fond of Illy coffee but it’s hard to come by up north, nothing to strong or too weak just a mild mannered coffee.. " They used to do a brilliant coffee Liqueur, we used that as the base for our espresso martinis

If we didn't have the machine we'd have filter at home. Instant is for emergencies, when there's nothing else! We get a lot of take out coffee too.

Same. Give me an Assam tea any day.
I'm only jealous, you coffee drinkers have so much choice (not to mention whipped cream, chocolate sprinkles and marshmallows ) |

Fresh from a cafetiere if I'm at home. The aldi Columbian beans are very good. We have loads of independent places where you can get all sorts of beans but the Aldi ones are one of my favourites |
