Any Coffee Lovers???

[sheepherder]

Interesting replies. I went online, Amazon mostly, and looked at 'cappuccino' makers. They seem to be multi-purpose machines, capable of making espresso, cappuccino, and latte.

Now the ignorance...What is this I'm getting at the corner gas & go??? I've been under the impression it was cappuccino...But it has minimal froth; in fact, it looks like a chocolate milk shake...but hot. I get the 'French Vanilla' flavor; sometimes, if they are out of that, I get the Hazel Walnut (or something like that).

Am I really getting latte or espresso???

I drink my coffee [Maxwell House] out of a 16oz plastic travel mug, with 3 heaping teaspoons of Coffee Mate [French Vanilla] and 3 level teaspoons of sugar. It's acceptable.

Best coffee I have ever had (not cappuccino) was in Panama. Coffee brought back from Colombia, in our planes, by the pallet load. $10 a case, orange 1 liter brick/box, with a pic of Juan Valdez & his mule on it. Writing in Spanish of course. Twice as strong as the 'regulated' coffee available here in the US.

There is a Tim Hortons down the street from me. The supermarket also sells the TH coffee. I've never tried it. (It's a brand new TH store).

I use tap water. I happen to love tap water, fluorine enhanced. I don't like bottled water. It has no taste. There have been mornings when I am recovering from some malady that cold tap water is just the bees knees.

I'm going to go out right now and get a mug of gas & go 'cappuccino' and ask my favorite crocodile/waitress what it is...
