I have not had any coffee since my last cup of it on the NavBridge of the USS MIDWAY in 1972. There is no finer coffee than the government-issue, Z-Grade, non-brand that we made in a 30-cup machine that was encrusted with barnacles and had not been washed in about two years. That was coffee!!!

Sugar plus Half & Half. Aladdin thermos only holds one large cup and it's really a steel cup, not a thermos. Three a day, with me 24/7,,,,,even cold though I'll sometimes nuke it and get it hot again! Thanks!

Unpolluted, just like my cognac and scotch. Although I've been known to enhance the former with the later on occasion. Did that when we had Cough Clinic. Anything with dexomethorhooch in it.

Black the majority of the time may occasionally add a little bourbon.

Black Navy coffee is the only coffee.

Black, as grandpa used to say; "If I wanted a milkshake, I would have ordered a milkshake".

As black as I could get it, and on occasion with a shot of Jameson.

ENS Private RallyPoint Member I admit to being an old softie; nowadays it's equal and no-fat creamer. Back in the 'day' making coffee was a regular litany followed by everyone to take our minds off the insanity. Contrary to best military tactics, whenever there was a pause in activities of almost any nature, troops would immediately break out their heat tabs and start brewing coffee. Hence I picked up the habit of doctoring it up to soften the taste of the WWII style powered coffee. Otherwise loved that mess-hall coffee which we used to fill our30 cup urns or we made ourselves from the coffee mentioned by SCPO Private RallyPoint Member .

As much as I hate to admit it, I have become one of those that drinks the flavored coffees with cream and sugar. I can still drink black if it's what is available.

Typically I drink it black. Periodically I will take it with milk. Since I am in Europe right now, I drink a lot of espresso and cappuccino. I never put sugar in the coffee. I avoid Starbucks and enjoy Dunkins. I dislike Folgers and Maxwell House immensely.

I want my coffee to taste like a freaking cake. Or ice cream. Or cream puffs. What was the question again?

Hot, dark, and hateful. The more bitter the better. I want to be reminded of that one ex girlfriend every time I take a scalding sip.

Black.
And it's ok if it's been burned on the boiler plate.

Starbucks? Nah.
Caribou. Yes.
Dunkin. Even better.
And folgers at home.
Or Victory Coffee.
