    You guys don't drink coffee?! Oh, man. Why that's almost unAmerican! Where would America be if they had said at Guadacanal..."Hey, Joe, got any hot Lipton?" Or how about at the Battle of the Bulge..."Hey, Mack, got any spare tea bags?" or how about at Flanders Field, "Oh, man! Is that hot Twinings I smell?". Java, Hot Joe, Brewtus, Cup of Jolt, High Octane, Go Juice, Morning Mud, Jitter Juice, Morning Mojo. You don't hear cool names like that for tea!

    I make what i'm going to drink in the morning and drink it all. I very seldom drink an afternoon or evening cup of coffee. I'm also a firm believer that all coffee needs is a cup, all that cream and sugar stuff is just not right. Although on the rare occasion my wife drinks coffee it's more like milk and sugar with a splash of coffee. Seems to defeat the purpose maybe it has something to do with what she calls my 40 weight oil?

    Oh I finish off whatever I brew. Once it is done brewing I turn off the burner...then just keep refilling the mug as needed. microwave is handy..and i been using powdered creamer lately for the cheap factor. So no worries on accidentaly curdling my coffee in the microwave I NEVER throw out coffee.

    Sarge doesn't drink coffee??? I don't believe it. He must be undercover, covert-ops you know. He's drinking Turkish tea and growing a long beard? Now we know how they found Bin Laden, way to go Sarge. Now go and have a hot cup of coffee and we'll never talk about this tea thing again.

    I see nothing wrong with drinking tea.... However I draw the line and wishywashy Liptons and Earl Grey is akin to drinking some old Tarts perfume. It has to be Yorkshire tea, or Tetley, a decent strong cuppa!

    I have to agree with you on the tea. I make mine strong too, even my "Iced tea" is stronger than most other peoples. I HATE watered down tea! To avoid/prevent this I use a Gatorade bottle and freeze some tea in it, then add some cold tea to the bottle when I want some. I also prefer Tetley's over Liptons. I put the tea bags in a pot of cold water and bring it to a boil, which makes a stronger tea than if you boil water and THEN add the tea bags. My sister says my tea is Too strong. Bah! It's better than colored water! I also like Strong Coffee too!

    We can make exceptions for our gentile relatives over the pond. But routy touty men in the colonies partake of that fine elixir coaxed from the roasted coffee bean.

    Cool Well now...

    Winnie, Tetly is okay, but I like Lipton. It's a "Pekoe, Orange Pekoe, cut black tea." However right now I'm using an unknown brand specifically made for Resturant use! Again, I don't "steep" the tea, that's for wimps. I put in more than enough tea to water ratio and boil it for awhile. Man is it strong! Must be the Irish in me! And NO! I HATE coffee, it was sent over by aliens who were cross-bred with Bigfoot and became communists! They use it for world denomination as it's highly addictive and people will do anything to get it in the morning. When I can't get tea in the morning then it's Coke or Pepsi!

    I remember when I was in northern Iraq attached to a British Royal Marine helicopter squadron, we were doing LZ recon. The first day we were out, they just landed the helicopters and broke out the tea set. Tea Time they said! The problem was, we didn't have authorization to be landing in that area, and the helos didn't even have radios nor did we have maps. We were just some of the first military presence in northern Iraq - and we were drinking tea.

    Those British Royal Marines really know how to party! Now I know that PGV's a "real man."

    I have my French jump wings. I ran back IN the plane. I won't say a thing about their parachutes being white.

    Lots of coffee, drink the whole pot....but lately have cut down on number of pots.
    Trick is to use the same cup, and just rinse it out evey week or so......

    Brew the full pot, shut it off and let it sit til it's gone. Might take a day or two depending on if there's someone else in the house who likes the REAL plain stuff. They all drink that nasty hazelnut crap that tastes like rancid coconuts. Blech.

    Weird, no K-cups? Or are you all afraid to admit to making little heaps of plastic trash? LOL.
    No Keurig here. For single cups it's a french press. Learned about those in England. Good strong cuppa using one of those.
