The perfect cup of coffee

Take a single cup french press like the one below

http://mokajoe.blogspot.com/2011/04/why-you-should-buy-french-press.html

Then 1 scoop of sainsburys all day coffee into the press (good reasonably priced and not bitter)

Boil the kettle and leave it for 5 minutes,

Add water to the french press and lt it stew for 3-4 minutes.

press the plunger

pour

add cream and sugar to taste(of you want to spoil it that is)

enjoy

Does it mean leave the microwaved water in the pot?  :huh:

Anyway, water into teapot with one too many tea bags, milk in cup wait to brew for a good few minutes and then pour into cup, stir if needed then drink.

Cup method on last resort I.e all the shops are shut and you can't borrow one from the neighbors :

Cup
Teabag
Water
Stir
Wait
Stir
Remove bag
Milk
Stir

GTFO with sugar. :sick:

forget soaring oil prices and the middle eastern war, this is a much more important subject at the moment!

when i make tea...

tea bag in
hot water in but leave about 2cm of height of mug at the top
quick stir and leave for a minute for tea leaves to defuse
stir again, remove tea bag and strain
place sugar in
place milk in
stir 20 times

perfect!  :laugh:

Got to agree with that  :cool: :grin:

Milk should be the last thing in, whether its Tea or Coffee,
I hate it when I'm made a cup of Coffee, by whoever, and they say that they have made it "especially milky" for you like its a f**king treat!

With coffee you should add the milk first as the hot water burns the coffee beans. Have know idea how I know that lol.

It doesn't.

Unless a thingy is making the tea.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

I've got a Tassimo thats been sat on top the fridge/freezer for about 2 years unused now. Instant all the way! Cant be arsed with the whole brewing up process, interupts my busy modding lifestyle!  :grin: Also Tea shouldn't be too strong imo, leaves a nasty aftertaste and a film on your tongue.  :sick:
