Handi Posted December 31, 2008 Report Posted December 31, 2008 Sup everybody. Since this is a General Chat, Who not have something off the wall to chat about. Coffee House... What type of Coffee does everyone Drink in their early morning Rising? or do you Drink coffee at all. Me, i'm not really that much of a Coffee Drinker, but when I do drink coffee I've been Drinking Folgers "Simply Smooth" Brand simply because my Ole Lady has Acid Reflux, and the others are hard on hter stomach. Besides this one of my others I like is 8 O' Clock Brand. I also sit behind my Laptop every morning weather coffee is in hand or not and do my Daily "Woodworking/Scroll Sawing" Blog reading, this is my Morning Habbit like a Woodworkers and Scroll Sawers Newspaper, And I also respond to just about everyone on my List. Then I decide to Tackle my Scroll Saw some mornings, other mornings I just mess around on the computer or tackle a Few Levels on World of Warcraft. Quote
Travis Posted December 31, 2008 Report Posted December 31, 2008 I don't drink coffee, but I LOVE the smell. I'd brew it just for that! But, I usually start my day with a soda, which is horrible, but I can't help it. I do like tea, but I kinad go in phases. Earl Grey...hot (a little Star Trek TNG reference for y'all). I'll drink it all of the time for awhile, then ignore it all together for a few months. But I always go back to my soda....my good friend. Quote

Speaking of which, and a little off topic, How goes the Batch you are Brewing? I'm waiting to get one myself when my Birthday rolls around on Jan 28th! Quote
Travis Posted December 31, 2008 Report Posted December 31, 2008 mmmm....beer. I'm bottling my first batch this weekend. In another week or two I'll let you know if messed up or not! But the beer looks like it's fermenting just fine (and my closet smells awesome!). I think I'll brew another batch this weekend while I'm waiting for the other batch to mature. Its a lot of fun! You might want to consider a larger kit, though. Mr. Beer is fine, but after your first couple of batches, you might outgrow it. Kits online run about $90 or so, which is probably about the same price as Mr. Beer after you buy all the other stuff. Plus you getta make 5 gallons instead of 2! Are there any other brewers out there? Quote

You may find them useful... i'm thinking about it, but I'm probably just gonna stick with the Smaller type... not much money to Spend on all the Beer stuff... http://www.williamsbrewing.com/ http://www.basicbrewing.com/ These are the 2 that I was sent to, Basic Brewing has a Audio and Video Podcast on iTunes also that I've been checking out. Williams Brewing has a Bunch of Beer Brewing kits, Supplies as well as Wine Brewing and all... Got bottles, Caps, Capper etc... Quote

scrollsawwoodart Posted January 2, 2009 Report Posted January 2, 2009 What up everyone, Been busy in the scrolling cave working on a few items and decided to stop for a second and come back to the website. Coffee is a special blend I get from a fella who works for a coffee company called three am wake up. It is black as tar and it kicks ya in the pants to get you going. Always drink this as I am up about 4 am everyday since my wife and I had twins at least that is my excuse. In the spring and summer I'm up then anyway because I am either hunting, fishing or sawing. Beer is my night time friend. Love the home brewed beer. Never did it myself but the taste of some of my buddies are great. Coffee house in the morning , Beer garden by night should be the name for a posting!!! Jesse Quote
Handi Posted January 2, 2009 Author Report Posted January 2, 2009 Jesse, i hear you, I've not had the Pleasue of tasting Homebrew or making my own just yet. Fortunatly here soon that may change as my Birthday is coming up and I'm gonna ask the ole lady for a Mr. Beer kit, Not lookin for something Really Big, Just something Small and Basic... My Luck if I got a BIG one, i would spend way to much money Brewing my Own and having it Drank while the next Batch is Brewing ROFL. So I'm just gonna Stick with the smaller stuff, Besides that, if I don't like it, Then I don't want to spend Hundreds of dollars in a Brewer and not like it lol. Quote

Handi Posted January 8, 2009 Author Report Posted January 8, 2009 I must be one of them Rare Occasions. I can get up and go and be awake by the time I get to the car, or I can get up after a long night, Slap a little cold water on my face and head out. Anything Cafinated don't do anything for me, Just make me more Tired, Coffee, Pepsi, Coke, Ect. The ONLY Thing that seems to give me the Jitteries is a Cup of Tea. Then i'm wired for sound... Anything else don't do the trick... i can Drink a Whole Bottle of that New, well used to be new. MDX by mountain dew... The energy Drink, and I can go right back to sleep... My ole lady Drank one she she never got to bed til the following night, I couldn't help but Laugh cause it didn't do anything for me... I can just get up and go with no means of waking up aids....
