How do y'all take your coffee when chart watching?
I usually do a sugar and splash or milk/heavy whipping cream but Im out of sugar! So I did manage to find a bag of brown sugar and tried it. To my surprise it pairs well!

With sugar and milk. And drugs.
Fun fact: I’ve never had coffee. I did have a neighbor growing up who used to drink his coffee with mushrooms in the morning. I thought that was weird until I got older.
This could be the last week without an ETF approval. I feel like there’s a good chance we could see a massive price swing next week. There will certainly be big news one way or the other.
Since caffeine is considered a drug, anyone who drinks coffee everyday is technically a drug addict. Good on you for staying clean
Mushrooms and coffee? I don't think my stomach could keep that down.
You first get horrible withdrawal headaches, really different than a normal headache. It was quite a surprise as I only used to drink 1 cup of coffee per day and maybe 2 cups of extremely weak tea.
In the end it felt like it made no real difference to me as coffee only gives me a calm short energy boost and never interfered with sleep, and I actually only had negative effects giving it up, such as more irregular bowel movements that were a bit harder to endure also.
I also spoke to my doctor about caffeine a few years ago and he reckons the whole "I stopped coffee and this is what happened..." YouTube viral stuff is just a fad and exaggerated nonsense mostly.
As long as you don't drink more than 1-5 cups of coffee per day or so I doubt it has a significant effect on your health.
Like anything, excessive consumption of anything will cause problems somewhere.
Also, black coffee has virtually no calories so it works well with a diet etc.
I drink 2 large cups of coffee per day and non caffeinated rooibos/redbush tea.
All with sweeteners.
These are not necessary perhaps and some people reckon they are cancerous garbage.
Still, I reckon this is much less worse than excessive alcohol or smoking.
Since going back to coffee, I actually really enjoy the process of making filtered coffee.
I have an old fashioned filter machine (with the paper filter things).
Interesting topic.
I was never a coffee person, contrary to 99% of the rest of the population, it seems. I may drink coffee when out with friends, or sometimes I would take hot/cold chocolate instead. About 2 years ago I started drinking coffee regularly at work, using a Nespresso machine. I usually use 2 capsules to cover a day (espressos, even lungos, are so low in quantity).
As for caffeine intake, I take plenty. Not from coffee, but from Coca-Cola. I'm almost ashamed to say it, but I'm addicted to it. It's of the "Zero" variety, so there are no calories, but there is caffeine (and other chemicals). I think I may have become immune to it by now, I don't sense any caffeine effect by drinking or not drinking coffee, as long as I take my daily fix of Coke.
Thinking of getting a filter machine at home like the one you have. I like the taste of that coffee. And the ritual of making it.
Uhh, i would prefer old school Coca Cola (not that old school, which is connected to the brand name's origin) over Zero at any time. Zero tastes like shit, imo. All those Zero-ized stuff is making your liver work hard to process the sweeteners.
I don't tolerate sugars and most sweeteners well, so i always treated Coke like weak poison, best mixed with alcohol of certain different blends.
To contribute a lil more:
I was a coffee drinker since i was 15yo.
Didn't tolerate it well, gave me the shits almost every morning, but i couldn't stop to love it. I was a smoker at that time, where tobacco and coffee were teaming up well together. Later i found out that it might be the sugar that stirs up my intestines, and the former love of my life, who happened to manufacture roasted coffee, made me try to exclude the 3-5 usual teaspoons of sugar i added to every cup. Guess what? The shits and bowel problems were gone, and since that day i was loving coffee even more. I know about the withdrawal of caffeine, but one can compensate the headaches and lack of energy with hydration and blood pressure elevating nutritients. The last twenty years i had at least 6-8 cups of strong, aromatic espresso coffee almost every day, most of them with plenty of milk (steam foamed). No probs with sleep and guts. No sugar, no nothing but milk, sometimes water, very rarely cognac or liquor.
And of course, in Summer it's sometimes a cold, unsweetened White Russian in the evening.
