Ryaca, your avatar still "trips me out".
I'm looking forward to the next one, actually

Meh, that's a matter of perspective.
As long as I make it to the washroom in time, I really don't mind how many times I go.

I usually go15 times a day of not more but coffee and energy drinks go right thru me but I'm a former addict and alcoholic so i need lots of coffee and or energy drinks
I'm in it for the drug called CAFFEINE
I guess once an addict always an addict

I'm kind of partial to this avatar as it's tied to my most favoritegame series of all time but u know me I'm constantly changing my mind

Wonder what I'll choose next

I think we're all addicts of some kind - we're all addicted to FT.
As for your avatar..
idk
I don't care for his name lol

Plus, I'm more of the type, if you find something fitting, you should stick with it.

Now, for you, I think you haven't actually found what is fitting for you - as you're not quite sure yet.
But I did find one that could work in the meantime...
Not my preferred colour, but I know Hobbs would like it:

Yes, it's pink: Show

Hmmmm maybe a bit small, but I can fix that

You guys would LOVE the coffee here! I went through 2 coffee machines in as may years, electricity is a touch and go thing here. Anyway, bought a #4 Milita (sp) dripper and used it to make a pot. But I was always "nuking" it. SOOOOO.....

Put two cups in the sink in just the right place so when I turn on the hot water it goes into both cups. When the water is "hot" turn it off, leave the hot water in the cups. While that's happening, three teaspoons of "Cafe Intenso" (Intense if you can't figure that out) in the permanent filter of the Milita plastic coffee dripper. When the water is boiled, empty the "hot cups", dry the outsides and hold the "dripper" over my cup, and pour enough boiling water into the thing for two cups. When mine is full, my wife's cup goes under it, hold her's over the sink until full; BINGO! Two cups of hot intense java!

Dump the ground down the sink, clean out the filter and put it away. The cups are still hot!!

@ Ry - been sober 32 years.

True coffee brewing is, in fact, an art form.
Even if LK has it down to a science

It is not to be rushed; it is ready when it is ready.
Shortcuts do not pay off in the end.

That sounds like you have it down lost

32 years is quite a feat

11 years here but am working towards your number

Mad said it perfect

The coffee will be ready when it's ready

Congrats Ry ... it gets to the point you just "don't even think about it anymore". Stopped saying "I quit" YEARS ago. When it simply became "I don't drink!"

Agree with Mike: True coffee brewing is an art form! and there is nothing like the smell of freshly brewing coffee in the morning . My wife, just outside the kitchen window water plants, "WoW I smell the coffee here!"

And of course: It's ready when it's ready.

There are some superduper coffee machines out there but "drip coffee is drip coffee" whether it coming through a plactic Malita dripper that is suppose to sit on a pot or through a $XXX.XX drip machine.

I like my brew!
