CoffeeThoughts.....

[Superfly]

actually, I think I've had this since around age 18, though it only happens every great once in a while. I did go to the doctor as a teen, but it never got as far as wearing a monitor.

my problem with caffeine was related to ulcerative colitis. like many ex-smokers, I developed it about a year or so after stopping. they still aren't sure what the protective effect of smoking is; only that there is one. finally figured out that caffeine was a huge trigger, so I got rid of it. also gave nicotine gum a shot. once I did that, the medicine actually began to work, and I was able to get off of prednisone, thankfully.

Mine was the same way. Only happened every once in a while, unless I drank a glass of iced tea. I knew something had to be wrong because every time I drank a glass of iced tea (and especially green tea), my heart would race. I'd tell the doctors, they'd brush it off and tell me I was fine. :roll: Once I first started noticing it more, about 5 years ago, I had just drank a very large glass of iced green tea. I was up at 400am, feeling like I had a caffeine overdose. I was shaky and jittery, couldn't sit down. I didn't drink regular green tea anymore. :lol:

So whats a usual Coffeethought ya has.....that always seems to reoccur? :2razz:

My coffee thought is; Jesus...I don't want to go to work today....

Keep in mind, that isn't said in a prayer kind of way...more like an outside voice gripe.

Ahhh much better now. mornin' everyone.

I've found it's not so much the coffee but the water quality and the brew method that matters. You can't make good coffee if you use crappy tasting water.

Luckily our tap water is tasty.

For me it's your basic whole bean 8 o'clock French roast ground right before drinking a brewed in a press.

So any usual Coffeethoughts? :2razz:

Okay for all The Coffee Drinkers.....who is into coffee. What Kind Do you drink. Are you an avid coffee drinker, occasional, Gotta have coffee type of person. 24/7?

For all those Into Coffee.....what are some of your Coffeethoughts?

My favorite are the light or medium roast coffees from Central or South America. I also like Dunkin's Original blend, and I am inclined toward trying different coffees anytime I come across one that sounds interesting. My favorite, for just everyday drinking, is Starbucks Guatemale Antigua. If you buy it by the pound from one of their stores, it's really not that much more expensive than buying at the grocery store, and seems to be cheaper per ounce than Starbucks sold in grocery stores.

I have never had and don't want to try any fru fru flavored coffee drinks y no Moca Loca or any other milkshake pretending to be coffee.

Exactly! I like my coffee to taste like coffee, but I do take a cube of sugar- Demerara cane sugar.

Cafe du Monde is good as long as it has LOTS of cream in it, and some beignets on the side. :lol:

That's the way Vietnamese drink it with condensed sweet cream. I prefer it straight black.

I drink about three of these from Folgers French Roast every morning - and sometimes more if I'm in a local casino gambling.
