Prior to that, I spent a fair amount of time working in Europe, and really got hooked on espresso. And now, I'm all about Community coffee with chicory.
Now for the truly "true confessions" of my current coffee drinking habit....I'm more about the milk than the coffee. The first time I met Fuzzy (Wchnu) was for coffee, it was a place that served Community coffee -- he ordered it black, and to his credit, he held his tongue when I ordered my Cafe au Lait (heavy on the au Lait). That said, I will drink it black at the fire station. Firefighters don't do milk, cream, Coffeemate or even sugar -- you drink it black or you go thirsty.
I’ve been using frothed heavy whipping cream for some time. I’ll use a press or stove top electric expresso maker.
When I was visiting Columbia back in the mid 1990’s they served coffee already with cream, didn’t ask.
