I understand people are passionate about many subjects, however to die on every hill baffles me. Coffee, bikes, cars, tool boxes and sports are just a few subjects that people seem to argue about with great passion. I have a relative that is super particular about everything. It’s like having a giant toddler to deal with. No matter what anyone says the conversation escalates into an argument. I chose to distance myself years ago.
What's your coffee today? What brew method? Photos

The calm inclusiveness on this forum almost universally is remarkable.
a little travel time for me. Fist stop 7/11, had their house blend mixed with French vanilla and hot chocolate. Second stop, Shell. Same combo shell house blend, French vanilla and hot chocolate. Pretty dang good 
It truly is a port in the storm. Give credit to the moderators, they make this a place for everyone to express their opinions in a respectful manner.
Macchiato and a ladyfinger biscuit for today
We’ve been in Franklin since Sunday so it’s been hotel coffee for me. There are plenty of coffee shops around that I’m sure are great, but the golf schedule has been quite demanding. Hopefully the rain will stay away from the course this morning. The forecast doesn’t look too bad, but we will probably get a little.
Good morning, coffee crew.
Eight O'Clock Original. French press. Black.
It's 71° in Nashville right now with a high around 82°. I woke up several times last night but finally dozed off again. It looks like we may get some rain today but I hope we don't for Trevor and his son's sake. See above post.
Have a blessed Tuesday, friends.

Are you one of those people that have the correct time on your coffee machine?
Two early morning americanos pulled here to start our Tuesday.
So, this past Friday, the Major's older daughter graduated from high school. So, this past weekend, was time for a low-key celebration. He & his CO dressed up the new sunroom:
All went well. Today, though, it's time for artsy coffee pix. This morning, it's an iced espresso of CO Coffee from local roaster One Village Coffee. While the Major was disappointed w/coffee from them in the past, this one is markedly better.

On the road, day 3. The morning cup was Peet's Single Origin Dark Roast Sumatra, processed in the Hack-A-Vac. It's a little more labour intensive than a drip machine, and first thing in the morning I ain't generally into "labour intensive" but what the heck; I'm on vacation. I can move at a different pace.
Well, time to wash up the dishes and go see what fun there is to be had along some of the backroads of my youth.
O.H.

Have you tried Kuju? It's a little pricey for at home use, but nice to have around and great for travel. You just need hot water in something for pouring; I pinch the top of a cup into a pouring spout and then find some where to fill it. I usually have an insulated mug of some kind with me, taller and skinnier works better.
One cup Major Dickason's dark roast decaf, one cup.
One cup Major Dickason's dark roast regular, one cup.
In the Chemex

Had a colada brewed at a new to me Cuban spot in town. I can’t get mine to taste as good.
Bustelo, of course.

Thanks! We did get some, but not enough to stop play. With a 2.5 hour drive home afterwards that was my main priority. We are back on the road for an event in Ringgold, GA in the morning. That one is a 1 day qualifier, so it won’t impact my coffee.
I have not, but I think I will. Hotel and gas station coffee does start to wear on me after 1-2 days. Thanks for the recommendation!
