Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Coffee: 2x teaspoons of coffee (3x if it's cheap coffee), 2x teaspoons of sugar, milk in first to avoid any burnt taste and to stir it up a bit before pouring, then stirring continuously while pouring. If it's filter coffee, I'm not particular about the order that the milk goes in.

Tea: Also 2x teaspoons of sugar, milk in last after letting it draw for a little bit. And to also be unnecessarily specific here, I pour the hot water directly onto the tea bag and kinda slowly, seems to maximize draw. And if I'm not in a hurry, I let it get nice and strong before taking the tea bag out or if I'm in a hurry, I'll just leave the tea bag in.

More of a coffee person than a tea person though.

That's just the way I'll do it for myself though, no need to impose that on anyone else lol. If you're making, it's just two coffees, two sugars and milk, thanks.
