Yes, another big topic here, this should get you all going and make the Takeover thread seem like a stroll in the park. ;-)

So latte people, and I’m talking about all the home baristas out there, which way do you go?

1. Milk in first
2. Coffee in first
3. Couldn’t give a fuck

Next -

1. Coffee bean
2. Pre ground from your supplier
3. Couldn’t give a fuck

Your chosen supplier?

1.

Your choice of coffee machine is

1.
2. kettle

Lastly -

1. I am not a robot
2. I am a robot
3. I am a killer robot and you’re next.

My answers are -
1. Milk in first
2. Pre ground
3. Rave coffee ( great coffee, good prices, if a little haphazard at times)
4. De Longhi
5. I am a robot. Like the one in the old Lost in Space.

    I'd take my latte to the sink and tip the revolting shit away.
    Put 2 teaspoons of Kenco Costa Rican in a mug, add water just off the boil and cold milk to taste. Sorted :wink:

    1. If I asked for one (I think) the machine would put the milk in second.
    2. Beans The machine takes a kilo and grinds them as it goes.
    3. Gimoka.
    4. Siemens built-in.
    5. I am a Captcha.

    1. I'd put the milk in after - because it's less faff, but i only really drink americano/long blacks or espresso.
    2. Beans
    3. Pact
    4. Gaggia Classic (though it just died so am using a dolce gusto - full disclosure and minus geek points)
    5. Not allowed to say

    Latte's are grim, grown ups shouldn't drink glasses of warm milk.

    Keep your coffee short, Cortado all the way

    I dread ordering a coffee whilst out, especially when they ask what kind would you like, I always say just an ordinary cup please. Apparently this is called an Americano.

    Black coffee, no fuss or froth.

    Though apparently that might make me a psychopath:

    2. Pre ground - I've not got a fucking living room, let alone space for a proper coffee machine mate
    4. Lavazza
    4. Bialetti Moka
    5. I wish I was a robot, they don't have to go to work with the flu

    Double espresso's for me, if I want milk in a coffee I might stretch to a cortado.

    I'm sorry, did you really just refer to a cortado as 'short' ?
