My hubby and I both love our coffee, especially in the
morning. I use an electric percolater made by Farberware
Superfast that makes up to 8 cups in just 3 minutes. He's
more of a fiend than I am. I love it for breakfast, but too
much, and I'm jumping out of my skin.

I use a stainless steel thermal carafe drip type with Starbucks Espresso Roast. It's a wonderful machine in the sense that I can pre set it to brew coffee before I wake up. It will keep the coffee fresh and hot for about four hours and automatically shuts off. What more could you ask for?
If I were more patient and hands on, I'd use the espresso maker on the stove burner, but I am way too lazy...
I am a fiend, by the way, averaging 5 cups a day.

I drink coffee and don't have to count the cups. Somehow, caffeine does not bother me.
I am a fanatic about my coffee, I want it full bodied, not bitter, therefore I keep my pot clean, just cleaned it over the weekend.
Although I drink mostly drip, I love my percolator and use it every weekend. Another Farberware user. You can't beat the coffee from this percolator. Magnificent!
The recipe is perfect: 1 rounded teaspoon per 6 oz. cup (but who drinks a 6 oz. cup?), just mix it like that and it'll be fine regardless of how much you drink in your cup.

I live alone so I make instant coffee and the cheapest one that I can find. Or I drink Cappuccino that I make at home as well. On any given morning I will drink any where from 1-3 cups of either one.
I just get me a coffee cup full of water, put it in the microwave for about a minute and half. Then put in the instant coffee, cream and sugar or Cappuccino. Then enjoy my drink until it is time to go to work.

I have a Professional Series automatic coffee maker, with the stainless steel pot. I don't drink coffee every day, I drink more in the winter. My favorite brand (decaf) is S & D, but I sometimes use other brands. For instant coffee I like, (sugar free decaf) General Foods International French Vanilla Cafe.

I use a coffee maker. I have the four cup, small model. I make an entire pot, and pour the whole thing into a huge mug I found at a Williams-Sonoma store. I use Folger's Columbian because I like a medium to dark roast. I drink that every morning.

I use a Bunn automatic drip style coffee maker.
I drink between 2 and 6 cups a day, depending on what I'm doing.

Automatic
Folgers French Vanilla
About 2 cups in the morning over about a 3 hour period
On rare occasions a cup in the afternoon
No one has called me a fiend lately, so I don't really know.

I am a coffee addict. I have it every day! I have a Mr. Coffee coffee maker and I use the ratio of 10 scoops of coffee for 12 cups of water. It comes out perfect every time. I mostly use Folgers or Maxwell House. It's cheap and good stuff. mmmm coffeeeeeeee
