Coffee makes me  do this puker and this  pukel even a coffee sweet or a dirty coffee spoon.

I can't go near a book shop that has a coffee shop in or when walking anywhere near a coffee shop in a high street I have to cover my nose as it just makes me  pukel

I was on a bus one day, when a guy sat down next to me with a fresh cup of coffee and with no notice what-so-ever I was  puker in my lap, I was so  Embarassed   Embarassed   Embarassed

So I don't do coffee   Wink

I have sampled most varieties of late, as some of my clients like to go to places like Coffee Republic. Normally at home I would only drink strong black coffee. I'm not a puritan and am happy with good quality instant such as Nescafe Black Gold. When out I find Mocha too sickly, Capuccino too frothy, Latte is ok but favourite is double Espresso.

Hi Nanny

Yes, espresso is very strong coffee and the amount should only be a "shot".  I get so cross when I ask for an espresso and get a whole cupful of coffee which isn't strong enough, just black.  I once asked why I'd got watered down espresso and was told "it didn't look much so I added some more water!".

I'm with Lloyd though, doppio espresso every time. Very Happy

However, I only drink a couple of dozen coffees in a year, I always drink very weak Chai, around 20 cups a day  Embarassed

If I drink more than 1 cup a day I get a migraine, so I usually avoid it completely.

I lurvvvvvvvvvvvvv coffee.  Strong ande black.  I use filtered coffee and good makes.  The smell is wonderful around the house. I feel for those that get poorly.  I have to have decaff after 18.00hrs as it keeps me awake.  I have about 5 cups a day.
