Starting a coffee habit.

I've started drinking coffee very often lately. I used to never drink coffee until about a year ago. Today I bought a one cup coffee maker. Its pretty much a hard plastic cup for the filter & ground coffee that sits on top of a mug and your pour boiling water through it.
I know im going to be drinking this most likely daily. I'm kind of excited to learn all the different brands and flavors. I enjoy preparing each cup.
Do any of you drink coffee daily? whats your story

I drink Espresso, exclusively.... I am actually sipping some piping hot Espresso right now. I get the Larry's Beans from the Hippie grocery store, fair trade, organic shit.... about 13USD for a 1lb bag.
I use a stove top (also called "old world") espresso machine. It has a sealed base that you fill with water, then put on the stove and steam is forced through a metal filter funnell and voila 6 shots of espresso in the top.
Coffee is the effing shit man!

No. No, man. Shit, no man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' somethin' like that man.

I replaced daily coffee with yerba mate a few years ago and I like it a lot better. I still enjoy an iced coffee every once in a while though. French press, vanilla hemp milk, agave nectar and ice ftw.

I used to work at a hippie grocery store and I consumed MASSIVE QUANTITIES of free yerba mate on the daily. If I had my druthers I would exclusively drink that instead... but alas I live waaaaay out in boonefuck USA and its too expensive for such a habit as mine.

Just don't switch to the needle and you won't have any problems! 
But for real I have also gotten really into drinking coffee lately...in the past it seemed to make me anxious and altogether not feel too good. But recently I feel like I almost can't function without it.

I own an espresso maker and a french press. I am a full time college student that wakes up to coffee and stays with it all day. Enough said!

Yeah, coffee all the way.
I need to get off my ass and fix my french press. The mesh along the side that keeps the grounds from getting into the liquid is all bent and non-functional.

I quit coffee a few months ago because it was making my life unmanageable. Whenever I drink it I start hallucinating pretty hard...harder than I usually do on mushrooms.

You gotta be exaggerating on both counts there right?

I just recently started drinking coffee on the daily, and I love it! I get excited about each cup too. To the point of me pacing by the coffee pot waiting for it to be done!
I love trying new flavors of coffee, but I've found the Folgers 100% Colombian to my favorite thus far. HOWEVER, I have a new French Roast coffee that I'm dying to open up and try! But I'll wait till this canister of Gourmet supreme is gone.
YUM COFFEE!
