Additional Aquarium Information
- What do you think are the keys to your success in reefing?
- Patience
yet to be fair, I'm trying to cut back. At least on the half and half and sugar. I wouldnt feel so guilty if it was black. Idk if its the coffee I buy, my coffee maker, or just the fact that it's so much different, but if I had a small cup of espresso, with a nice full body flavor, I can drink that straight, it's so rich and bold it almost tastes creamy. Regular drip brew coffee though? Black tastes so bitter.
I'll have to give them a try! I usually just buy random stuff at hannafords until I find something half decent or I go back to either green mountain or just the ol Dunkin Donuts
