Or prefer instant? I like both but home made coffee is the best and the smell from it too, we have an aero press and it is an eassy process. I then add some ice cream mmmmm  |

I'm not a fan of instant. I did prefer making my own when I had a proper coffee maker though. |

Either is fine as long as its a good coffee. I tend to use instant for myself as I live alone, but love to brew a pot when I've guests. Fwb lives 45 minutes away and usually texts me at the 10 minute mark so that I can start the percolator  |

I love coffee but hate instant coffee. I also have an Aeropress but have moved on to a Leverpresso which is another manual coffee press but performs the extraction at between 4 and 9 bar giving a richer espresso than the Areopress.
My next move is home roasting as I am waiting on a fluidised bed, hot air roaster from Kickstarter at the moment. |

"Instant makes me want to cry. Have a Nespresso machine. Quick, convenient and delicious
Mrs"
If you knew what Nestle did you’d cry harder!
We call them the baby killer company.
I like all coffee as long as it tastes fantastic.
McDonalds coffee was the worst I’d ever tasted, I actually spat it back into the cup.
The best is an expensive, hard to obtain one called Fincas Los Altos, saves for special occasions. |

Ooo, have you got an electric one that keeps it hot? Mine has seen better days. |

"Coffee machine or press is my favourite but sometimes I quite like a nice instant too.
I can’t be doing with people that get too snobby about it. "
Oh I couldn’t possibly drink instant coffee  |

I always make my own coffee and every bugger else’s. I swear they wait til I get up mug in hand.
At home I use cafetière or Dolce Gusto pods. At work it’s instant as my coffee machine broke and didn’t get replaced  |

We buy fresh coffee beans and grind them at home. We have a handy little electric grinder which does the job in seconds. The aroma is gorgeous and fresh, homemade coffee tastes Devine.
We have some ASDA best buy for guests. Only joking lol. We give everyone who graces our home the best.
We have a variety of biscuits too. |

Making a cup of coffee is like making love to a beautiful woman. It's got to be hot. You've got to take your time. You've got to stir... gently and firmly. You've got to grind your beans until they squeak. And then you put in the milk.

Love coffee but can't drink more than a couple of cups a day now or I'm bouncing off the walls.
I like the individual cup drip filters Tesco etc sell. They make a decent cup of coffee with no faff.

Have a Nespresso - very quick and convenient, and good enough for me. Probably has some coffee purists coming out in a cold sweat though. The new machine is good as it has a couple of bigger pods so you can make whole mugs of caffeine filled goodness! |
