Jax Nova, there was a time when I would do a couple of pots of coffee, each day. Uh......I can't handle that, these days!

(_)ʔ Two cups of espresso in the am's lights me up for the better part of the day. However, a long night in the studio might require a small cup - tea is better for that, but the caffeine lasts longer.

@Hanasian. Yeah... i rarely can stixk to just two cups.... lol Now I only drink about four a day, so that's a big cut from my old "habbit" though sometimes in the evenings or on weekends I find myself reverting and going for more, or on the drive home I will sometimes pick up a cup if it's been a long hard day at work. (And by a cup I mean 24 oz. )


@Silverleaf
Yup, I've done that on occasion. Haha. If I am bored on the weekends I find myself drinking coffee just for... "fun" ?? And to pass the time. Lol Not sure when it became a passtime for me. :p I still could drink that much, I just purposefully don't. Caffeine really doesn't effect me much at all any more. (Probably from my excessive intake in my earlier years) I can drink a couple cups of coffee right becore bed and it doesn't really seem to make a bit of difference when I go to lay down and sleep. However.... I generally take 30 min to an hour to fall asleep anyways... even on a day where I have had no coffee or caffeine of any kind... so sometimes it is hard to tell wjether the coffe contributes or not.

Yes! I miss David!

Sipping my 2nd cuppa Cleanskin Dark. I like it, but will be getting a kilo of BlackStar Riverside Espresso beans this weekend.
That has become my coffee bean of choice for here at home. :) Oh yes, will likely get some Elixir Single Origin and some de=scaler as well. Th emachine needs a clean, and its little red light has been on for a couple weeks now....

We need a list of coffee quotes on the first page. Lol Too bad we can not edit it.

Never even heard of those Hanasian. Then, I get my coffee at rhe grocery store. I don't even know where the closest actual coffee shop is. Inwould like to go to one sometime, but I am afraid it would be nearly 150 miles or more. (Since it is that far to the "big City" out in these parts)

You live out in the 'boonies' eh? Mail Order is your friend my friend! May I recommend Stone House Coffee? Stopped in there in 2014 when my wife and I drove up to Nisswa to see the places I used to frequent when visiting the grandparents. Bought some of their beans and dang it was good! They don't ship to Australia unfortunately, and the ones I mentioned in my last post are some local Brisbane roaster coffee I get. Anyway, I suggest you order some of the Stone House coffees. I can personally recommend the Black Velvet and the Brazilian Yellow Bourbon. I'd get some if I could!

I must follow up on your suggestion myself. The coffee I buy is Murchie's. They're a coffee and tea specialty shop that was established in Vancouver (Canada) many years ago, and the grocery stores carry a small selection of their coffees, teas, and hot chocolate mixes here. I used to love going into their shop when I lived in Vancouver.

Actually, I miss all of the specialty coffee and tea shops, although we have two very good ones locally.

Yes indeed I do Hanasian. I live in the country about a mile and a half outside a town of like 90 people.

I will have to check out the link, though! I rarely buy things online aside from an occasional amazon order but i will have to look into this.

I do highly recommend their coffee. I mail ordered some to have delivered to my brother's house in Seattle when I was heading over last October. Yum!

Yeah, I get the 'boonie' living. Where I used to live it was a 26 mile round trip to an actual grocery store. There was a little General Storein in the township I lived in, and a 24 hour convenience store at the truck stop by the freeway exit a few miles away for the quick necessities, but for anything else, it was the trek to the 'big' town of 1,000+ some people, or the 30 mile drive to the 'city' of 18,000 ( a good chunk of them university students).
