Favourite brands of tea or coffee

I agree BC. The aeropress makes the best cup. Unfortunately, I loaned it to my son to try and now he can't find it.

I told him to forget about it cuz TBH, it's kind of fussy to set up first thing in the morning.

I’m on my second Aeropress… I used the first til it fell apart.

Never heard of an Aeropress before but looked it up. Seems to be a French press variation. When FPs were all the rage a decade-ish ago, I bought one but donated it after a few tries.

Yeah, the coffee was good, but the process took too long and required too much personal involvement - that's what machines are for. Its death knell was the unholy mess of grounds after each (paltry) 8 oz cup.

Is the Aeropress better?

Your cup of coffee is better. Set up and clean up is about the same.
I think I want another one.

That's a MUCH easier cleanup than the French press!

Now that I've seen the video, I see I've been overdoing the clean up.

Rarely drink tea.

Coffee, decaf, no milk, cream or sugar. Multiple cups throughout the day.

I like Cafe Bustello espresso with breakfast. Otherwise Cameron’s dark French roast if I have a cup later. Or if I have Decaf after lunch or dinner, I like Cameron’s Highlander Grog decaf. ALL must be fresh brewed in my CRUX Kuerig-type brewer. Have cut down to 1 or 2 cups of regular, although that first cup of espresso packs a punch!

Peet’s French Roast coffee, and I also like a variety of different teas that I have been ordering from a place called Tearunners.

My assortment of teas include: Twinings, Stash, Bigelow, Tipson, Tetley, and Lipton. Sometimes I have Red Rose. Lipton is my least likeable.
Also Yorkshire, PG Tips when I can find them.

I have a few other imported brands I picked up in Home Goods because I liked the pretty tins.

When Pure Leaf Tea (loose leaf) was sold in Target I tried it and thought it was very good. It has disappeared from the stores near me and only sold as a bottled tea, which I don't want.

Same as you, I don't use sugar in my tea, never have done. When I have a bit of a sore throat I put a little honey in the Lemon Ginger tea.

The only tea I add milk to is the plain black/orange pekoe teas. I enjoy the flavors of my teas. I;m currently near the end of a box of Stash's Christmas Eve Tea, it has no sugar added, yet it tastes sweet due to the spices.

Long Live Tea and Its Drinkers! Put the kettle on, please.

Now there’s someone with good taste.
Twinings, Stash and Bigalow are my favourite teas and Kirkland coffee from Costco is my favourite coffee. I no longer drink much tea or coffee since I get insomnia easily and caffeine doesn’t help but I do like the taste very much.

I don’t remember red rose tea monkeys but do remember these figurines that you’d find in each box. They were fun to find.
