(2,860 posts)I like it with a half teaspoon of sugar and a splash of milk. I do love the smell and taste of coffee, but it just kills my insides so I can't drink it.

(86,636 posts)The thought of it gets me up in the morning, or keeps me from crawling back under the covers after early am potty run. I make one perfect mug, fair trade medium roast filtered through a Melita, H&H and a little sugar or honey. Some water before and after.
When coffee becomes too expensive pr unavailable, I will switch to some kind of tea.

(86,636 posts)It's a ritual to get the water on and boiling, takes three minutes, which gives time to assemble the maker adding the filter and grounds to the cone. By then the water is boiling and ready to pour over the grounds. I love the smell of the steam as it brews. After my perfect cup of coffee, I can face nearly anything that comes careening out of nowhere.
