    We have local coffee shops that sells beans and stuff but the prices are outrages.
    Ultra. 120 nok for 2 kilos isn't that bad. They have everything you want. And if you live in Asker, try Smart Club.

    Yeah we do have a hockey league, GET-ligaen. I follow that league aswell, Frisk Asker is my team here in Norway.
    But the difference in tempo,style, and skill is just so huge that I'd rather watch the North-American league.

    But I do occasionally go and watch my team play live here in Norway : )

    I usually drink SoBe Pure Rush energy drink or an Urge Intense energy drink.

    I sometimes drink coffee, though. Usually in restaurants. Then I drink espresso. I don't know what brand they use, but I like it

    This is the mill I use...



    http://www.amazon.com/Zassenhaus-Mah...6583325&sr=8-9

    The top actually broke after about 10 years of use, and I put the guts into an old Armin Trösser mill, that didn't grind as fast as I'd like. It's a little spendy, but it'll easily grind to any coarseness you like, and it doesn't require electricity. You may even be able to find an old mill at an antique shop, but good ones seem to be fairly rare.

    I think that the temperature of the water is paramount. I went through several machines to find the perfect cup and settled on a Cuisinart. I got the middle model rather than the one that grinds the beans. I would like to grind my own beans and do sometimes but lately I've settled for the ground cheaper ones anyhow.

    this one: http://www.google.com/products/catal...d=0CHMQ8gIwAw#

    eliminated the need for paper filters too which is wicked nice.

    I always carried a thermos to work. I made an overfilled 12 cup pot at home, and that gave me a cup at the house, a 1l bottle filled, and about 18oz in a travel cup. I'd run out eventually, but at least some of the coffee was good. Office coffee always sucked(water supply), and coffee out gets expensive.
    I hear ya on the work coffee. Try working at Wal-Mart. It's like come on, go grab some decent coffee of the shelf instead of this Great Value crap

    Sleep issues were my main reason for cutting back on my coffee consumption. Especially when my daughter was born and I found that not only was I kept awake by a crying baby, I was also unable to get to sleep when she did fall asleep because I was wired on caffeine!

    like mentioned in an earlier post i love coffee... i may be sitting around a 50% makeup of coffee 50% snus. but i have to say that i have found a newfound liking of many of the caffine free herbal teas due to not being able to sleep at night.

    I have a Nespresso espresso machine, that I won in a competition at my old workplace. I wouldn't recommend one to anyone. It does make a decent cup of coffee, but it only works with their own capsules that you can only buy by mail order. And they're hella expensive compared to loose weight ground coffee/beans.

    As such, the machine sits unused for months and months at a time, until I can be bothered to splash out on some capsules. I'd sell the damn thing, but I don't think I could sell it to anyone in good faith, knowing what an annoying money drain it is.

    My cafetiere gets a lot more use, but I mostly drink tea at home these days. At work we have decent coffee vending machines that do proper coffee, so most of the time I get my coffee fix at the office.

I enjoy cold coffee, but I prefer it hot, at least for the initial round of drinks. Using the small press would be a full time job every time I wanted a cup of coffee.
