How do you drink your coffee?

If you make latte's, then the quality of the milk you use will have a dramatic effect on the overall quality of your coffee.

If you're using a barrister type coffee machine, then the way in which you tamp your coffee (pressure exerted) will have a dramatic effect on the quality of the shot pulled from you machine.
