      I cannot stand bad coffee. Seriously there should be a code of conduct. I live in Geelong and I tell you, paying 3-4 dollars for a substandard coffee gets to me. They really think that just by using a big machine that people will flock there. stupidly, people do. for what roadhouse quality coffee. gah! how do we keep these frogs accountable.(i dont know why i said frogs. it just sounded right)

          Ugh, Ive had some terrible ones....

          - latte that literally tasted like ash
          - latte with a sort of burnt skin partway down
          - latte with no readily apparent espresso (it was white)
          - latte that contrived to taste watery

          If I dont trust a place to get it right, my strategy these days is to order a mocha (the chocolate covers a lot of things up) or in desperation a latte with a syrup/flavour in it. Its not really coffee, just something caffeinated that tastes ok.

          Of course the flip side is the odd enexpectedly good ones, like the really great latte I once got from an indian takeaway (it was the *only* option available at the time - I was astounded that it was good).
