I don't drink a lot of coffee but I like to have a strong cup with lots of additives (syrup, creamer, whatever I have). What type of coffee maker would be best for me?

How do YOU make a really good cup of coffee using a 8 cup french press?
When I make coffee using my regular coffee maker, I use one tablespoon ground coffee per two cups of water. I used to work at a gourmet coffee shop and this is how we did it. I just can't get a nice dark cup of coffee using my french press. What is [...]

What is a good espresso or coffee machine to buy?
I like Cafe Bustelo and other Latin coffees, and I also tend to like heartier European coffees. I need something that can make good coffee, even if i only want one cup at a time (I live alone). And I'd prefer to spend less than a couple hundred dollars.

I did a bit more research. Beer [...]

How do you brew good coffee at home?
I love Starbuck's regular brewed coffee. When I make brewed coffee at home, it just doesn't taste as good. Does anyone have any advice on how to brew excellent coffee at home?

What exactly defines a “cup” of coffee? The amount of ground coffee or the amount of water used to brew?
I enjoy three to four cups of coffee throughout the morning but I have wondered if my "cups" of coffee are equivalent to whatever is the standard in research. I usually measure three or four cups of ground coffee into my drip coffee maker then add six cups of water to run through it to [...]

How often should a fresh pot of coffee be made if you drink coffee all day?
I know I shouldn't but sometimes I need the energy to get things done, so please don't start beating me up. I say every couple of hours to keep it fresh, I can't stand old coffee it has to be fresh. I have a coffee warmer that I sit it on so I don't have [...]
