Silk creamer? I may have to look for that one.

Mr B · 02-16-2012, 06:10 PM

This is the one I use.

It's not the regular Silk Drink. It's a creamer for coffee. Tastes just like 1/2 & 1/2 but much better for you. I think it tastes better than 1/2 & 1/2 personally. I use the Orignal (non flavored) one. I dont want to "change" the flavor of my coffee.

I'll pick some up tomorrow. I use almond milk on my cereal. This may totally end dairy for me...except for yogurt

New coffee! Sumatra Bodhi Leaf Grade A Mandheling

Roasted 2 days ago to FC+, drip, splash and dollop (both good). Typical Sumatra, great body, funky earth as it cools. But it's really clean, very nice. Creamy vanilla with chocolate roast tones

From Klatch, recommended as a classic Sumatra.

BSB · 02-17-2012, 05:20 PM

Looked for it, they only had French vanilla

I ain't buying that. I'll look elsewhere, after the weekend. I don't do shopping, on the weekends

More Monkey Blend today. It is getting better compared to my first cup. It must have needed more time to degas. Delicious!

Funny how that works. The Sumatra Bodhi Leaf, with 3, is WAY better than with 2. Deep and rich, fantastic body. Excellent cup!
Happy Saturday!

Just the regular old Trader Joe' House Blend this morning. I love their Sumatra/Columbian blend for this brand...

BSB · 02-19-2012, 02:38 PM

Pressed a cup of monkey blend before church.
Sumatra, with 4, after, is smooth and fine.

Nothing special as far as beans go, just Caribou french roast. But I got a new french press and the non-fancy beans taste way better out of this thing than they did from the coffee maker.

I'm really happy with it so far. At an insulated 64oz I can get 4 big cups of coffee and the second two are still hot when the wife and I get to them.

I have been pressing in my glass press and then poaring it into a thermos. Yesterday I grabbed a nice little travel press. I saw a nice big carafe at Ikea Saturday kind of like yours, I really wanted to grab it but the boss said not today.

It is beautiful! But, doesn't the coffee tend to get bitter, sitting in there? Or, if you guys drink coffee like me, it doesn't sit long

Try some Dunn Bros. coffee. Fresh roasted right in the stores.
I grew up in MN, did some canoe trips down the Crow, there were no houses along it back then

only farms. Smoked my 1st cigars on those trips, Wolfe Bros. Rum Soaked Crooks

Mine doesn't last long but it does occasionally get cold fast if I leave it directly in my glass press.
I add it to a thermos just to keep it hot for the 15 or so minutes I take to drink it all.
