Looking for some coffee recommendations. Like mine dark and dank I just want to try something new. Anyone tried Death Wish? Advertised as the strongest (caffeine) in the world but now there is one stronger, just out of stock right now.

I go back and forth on coffees, but not on my machine. I use a Bunn My parents ran a restaurant in the Shenandoah Valley for 30+ years and they had a Bunn that was had a built in hot water heater. Mine is a mini-version of that. It keeps a reservoir of water hot, and when you pour in the cold water, it displaces the hot. An entire pot brews in less than 2 minutes. Now being a chemist, my contention is that making coffee is basically an extraction. Using water that is a consistent temperature produces a more efficient extraction.

At home I use either a French press or a Bunn espresso machine. I think the model number of the espresso machine is " cheap one that Pam found at a yard sale". As for the coffee it is some fair trade beans she gets at 10,000 Villages. I've quit trying to use the frothier on the espresso and now just heat some milk in the microwave and pour in a double shot. The French press gets drunk black. At work I drink it black but on vacation I use cream and sugar on occasion. I'm pretty sure I need me one of those cone things.
This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill—the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill—you stay in Wonderland, and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes. Remember: all I'm offering is the truth. Nothing more.
What happens if I take both?

I drink "Good Strong Coffee" a blend roasted by Humboldt Bay Coffee Co. owned and operated by John Hall. They roast 99% of the areas top 1% of coffee. I brew in a Mr Coffee drip with organic compostable filters and I have that sucker right by my bed so everyday I start out with coffee in bed.

Pretty much. My brother used to use a ceramic one with paper filters long ago when he lived in SF. He hasn't made me a cup of coffee in a long time so I'm not sure what his coffee game is like in Detroit. Change of location has to have an impact right?

I like the dark roast coffee, and I usually drink it black. Occasionally when brewing an extra strong brew (like a pot's worth of beans that fit into two cups) I'll add some cream.
My fav is the Dark as Dark by Blanchard's, a local coffee roaster here in RVA. In fact, I used to live in a house that was right behind the roasting house. You could smell the beans roasting when they got it going. As much as I live the smell of coffee brewing, when they were roasting the dark beans it produced a really awful smell. Like burning tires or something.
I'm not signing this!

I have a friend who brings Death Wish to work from time to time, it certainly has a kick, but actually tastes pretty smooth. Eight O'clock is my go-to brew at home. Trager Brothers Roasters in Nelson County is my absolute favorite coffee. They used to set up at Lockn', but I didn't see them last year.
