Most of the 35 years I've been drinking coffee I took my coffee with cream and sugar. But a few years back I decided to try and shave a few Kcals from my dietary intake and and decided to start drinking coffee black. And now I drink hot strong black Sumatran!

I got almost a full pot for the AM! :-)
