Are you a coffee 'snob'?
91 Answers
If there's one thing I cannot thole it's sub-standard coffee.
The worst of the lot is that milky vomit they serve up in 'builder' cafes.
Starbucks are a fraud - rarely have I had a decent coffee from them, and they their 'fair-trade' policy is dubious.
The best of the high street coffee bars IMO is Cafe Nero: good quality, decent strength, forgeable loyalty cards - it's genius siting a couple of their branches for the tired traveller in Heathrow and Gatwick.
My setup here at home is: Gaggia espresso machine (permanently set up with the 'double' espresso holder), microwave to warm the milk, and Taylors Hot Lava Java - strength 6 :-)
So - back to my question, are you a coffee connoisseur, do you have a decent set-up or do you just bung a spoonfull of Maxwell house into a mug, slop water onto it and glug?

Hi there Answerprancer. Finally I have met someone on here who loves a decent coffee like I do. In fact I am about to go down stairs and make a nice espresso. I would definitely agree about Starbucks coffee houses. I have never had a decent cup of cappuccino or espresso in there. Best I have had also is Cafe Nero.
I have a Morphy Richards Coffee maker which makes a superb coffee. I also have a Neapolitan Stove Top Espresso maker which does a gorgeous coffee. My fav' coffee has to be Lavazza.
