Hi, dear fellow coffee lovers!
I can't believe that I'm starting the coffee conversation in this round. It must be because I'm not traveling to work this weekend. More free time, more Hive time.
For many, coffee is fuel when it comes to having energy to work. For me, coffee is more like a companion. Right now it's after 10:30 at night, and I'm alternating between Hive and some writing on my computer. How I wish I didn't depend so much on its presence; if my coffee cup isn't next to me, my neurons get shy and this implies that I can drink many cups a day, especially after 5 pm. I don't know whether to break up with my neurons or with my nightly cups of coffee. I have tried switching to tea and sometimes it works, but I must say that my nightly caffeine habit has proven to be relapsing and resistant. I'm probably helpless.
Sometimes, like right now, I add some vegetable milk, to my coffee to make it gentler on my stomach. This time I added coconut milk I made this morning. I tell myself this is not real coffee to make myself feel less guilty, ha ha ha ha.
You've already opened the debate, the time has come for a pleasant conversation, let the gossip begin, hehehe.
As coffee drinkers we do risk becoming addicted to the flavor and caffeine of the dark lover. I think it would also change the dependence on coffee.
That coffee looks delicious and it's the first time I've heard of coconut milk being added to it. My curiosity makes me imagine what the flavor of coffee would be with that combination š¤
Thank you for leaving your comment, I leave you a cup of delicious coffee.ā
Happy weekend!
Depending on good coffee puts us in a dangerous place. What happens when there is only bad coffee? Will we give in?--I've actually been there, and I had to switch to tea šµ
Sometimes I put vegetable milk in my coffee; I like to make the milks myself and make lattes with cashew milk, almond milk, and coconut milk mostly. But really, my coffee is always or almost always black.
Very interesting is how to make the milk yourself, I don't really consume milk because of the lactose, but I have been told that plant-based milk does not have that discomfort effect. I am going to try!
Happy Saturday with a delicious coffee ā
Lactose! That's the reason why I make my own milk. I could buy vegetable milk, but it's too expensive for me and not as delicious as homemade. The easiest to make is with cashews; you let them soak for two hours, rinse them, and then add water--I add a little salt, cinnamon, and vanilla--and process them in the blender. No bagasse left.
It is only since the 2000s that good coffee has been commonly available in the US; I remember one of my best friends in the 90s was the first to start drinking coffee when we were teenagers and the coffee was still mostly bad. I could tell how good or bad it was based on how much sugar and creamer she put in it. š One time she put in 4 packets of sugar and I was like, "Wow, if it's that bad, why are you drinking it??" LOL
...the unfathomable mysteries of bad coffee šš¤£
You're lucky to live in this era when coffee is ubiquitous, though I know you have to pay a lot for good coffee.
I actually love having a cup of coffee next to me when I'm casually browsing through HIVE or thinking hard on writing a blog post! Makes the whole process a lot more enjoyable, don't you think!
100%!!!
I just hope my doctor never says I can't have coffee anymore! I know I should moderate my caffeine intake a bit now, so that the doctor doesn't forbid me coffee when I'm old and more in need of it than ever to drag my cane š I need coffee to keep my spirits!
I am a certified Doctor, and I give you full permission to drink coffee š
Ah, that's what I needed to hear before going to bed.
Hehe #coffeelicious dreams!
Yes I think I Just made that word up!
Thank you!
I'm sure I've seen that word in the comment posters by the @cinnccf team. It's a beautiful portmanteau anyway; love it. Makes sound like dessert.
I don't think you'll be dragging the cane, rather, you'll be dragging others to dance with you to the rhythm of good music accompanied by a good coffee maybe with some liquor hahaha!
I hope so! Ha ha ha ha
It is true that its consumption should be moderated because as a drug it creates addiction, but those of us who like coffee find it hard to resist its flavor and its permanent stimulus. Happy week. Cheers and greetings.
Well, yesterday I had five cups of coffee. Today, only two. I call that moderation š
Hahahahahaha.
That's what we tell ourselves to take care of ourselves and self-deception in the best way.
In any case, it is true that from 5 to 2 there is a good reduction.
We should also look at the size of the two cups consumed.
Happy week and long live coffee. Cheers and greetings.
Oy! I'm sipping on some coffee right now as I reply to your comment and as I'm browsing through Hive. š
I am not the only one who loves to do it then hehe!
Not anymore...
Many revenants around, hehe
Yes, we have returned to the realm of coffee, once again. š¤
I'm about to brew my second cup of the day!
And that makes you brave. One cup a day is more than I can handle; unless I'm working really hard, nonstop. š
You make me blush. Three cups is my average for a day. Or is it my minimum?
I'd take a guess and go for the average. š¤
Yes, you're probably right. When I had an office to go, I had many mor cups a day, but they were tiny paper cups filled with awful coffee. Now I work from home mostly, and I have less cups a day now. But coffee at home is always better for me.
Recently the experience has been quite the same for me as well, I'd rather have my coffee at home. That is why my cafƩ visits aren't as common nowadays.
Coffee and Hive are meant to be!
Yes sir!
Hahaha. I couldn't agree more.
Coffee is a great companion for Hiving hehe. I more than agree with that. But in my case, I don't think I need it as an energy boost except in the mornings and even then I think in the last few weeks that I've been drinking fewer cups a day, I'm improving in that aspect as well.
Coffee is not a dependency for me but a good companion, I think.
I'm sorry, but I think you're kidding yourself. š
After my cats, coffee is my favorite Hive companion!
Lucky you! I need emotional coffee, I guess.
In my case, those emotional coffees you referred to are what I need in the mornings, especially on Mondays after a busy weekend.
Have a great week! šāļø
I know what you mean. My weekend wasn't busy at all, so I took my time to brew my first coffee this morning.
It's good that you see it that way because all excesses are bad. In the case of coffee, it becomes an addiction if we don't know how to control it. In my case I try not to drink so much, but there are days when I drink too much. Happy week. Cheers and greetings
There was a time I used to drink a lot of coffee when I did office work away from home. But then, nothing in excess benefits our health, right? So it's better to enjoy what we like in moderation.
Have a great week āļøš
As much as we like things, moderation is important because too much is harmful to our health. Happy week. Cheers and greetings.
WOW!
I have never read, let alone heard of, anyone making the combination of coffee with coconut milk.
I'm not saying it's bad, just that I was surprised. I have to try it and if I like it, maybe it will change my relationship with coffee.
If a pretty girl does something like this, the thing must not be bad.
Reading that you drink coffee in the evenings, reminded me of when I was in college. Also, when I had night shifts in a lab, I worked in. Those nights were black coffee in industrial quantities.
I was amazed at the coconut milk that I love.
You must try it! I was the most skeptical about adding vegetable milk to my coffee, but now I've completely changed my mind--always that it's a quality milk, homemade preferably.
You're so kind! Try coconut milk macchiato or latte. I'm sure you're you're going to love it.
Well, with that recommendation, I'm sure I will.
If I get a tummy ache, I'll let you know.
I totally understand what you mean. I guess I got so used to making my own milk that I've forgotten it's actually a tedious process for most people. I make vegetable milk in a snap, hehe
The advertisement will read:
Take your rich family coffee "GER-MAN" in a two-liter container and you can mix it with delicious coconut milk "MARLYN".
Delight your palate like a God.
We'll be rich, my friend! Ha ha ha ha...
You should definitely watch her videos then mate! You'll see a HELL LOT more added to coffee than coconut milk š
I donāt remember her channel name, just "cacanut milk girl" on youtube.
šššššš
Where does coconut milk come from? Coconuts, nor almonds have any "milkers" or bazooms. š¤
.......but I have tried coconut milk, and it is surprisingly refreshing!
I've never tried coconut or almond milk, but I'd surely like to try one day...
This is how I make my coconut milk at home, dear @riz611 š
Ah, I've seen this procedure before, but never realized it. Damn! š¬
I've never seen her on YouTube. I must!
There are two of us who are taking advantage of our free time to fully enjoy hive, Tea is good, relaxing, and tasty but honestly, there is nothing like a good coffee... although I think you overdo it at ten o'clock at night hahaha!
If you haven't tried midnight coffee, you lack mundane coffee wisdom! Ha ha ha ha... Love Hive-coffee!
Yes, I'm getting into the world of coffee hahaha!
I can teach you more about coffee, about how to mix it, about how to choose good coffee, you can ask me š
I absolutely adore coconut milk! I feel that it mixes with coffee perfectly. Glad to hear that you have some time this weekend to relax and take in as many cups of coffee as your heart needs š¤
Yes, it was about time. I needed a little vacation, even if it's just coffee and movies at home. I'm happy with that, more than happy.
Hello, hello, Bella!
Coffee with vegetable milk is very tasty,
I like dark and sparkling without sugar... šš
I consume it in the afternoons, at night it steals my sleep.
I was delighted to read you.
Those of us who like coffee like to make things up so as not to blame it for any problem that may happen to us as a result of its abuse, but there are tastes that deserve sticks and this is one of them. Happy week. Cheers and greetings
You're totally right, my friend. I hope I can drink as much coffee as I want until really old age, hehe. Otherwise, I'll have to switch to tea!
This was a great start to the convo š¤
I've never tried coconut milk in my coffee, but I've heard of it. At home, it's always black, and when I go out, I tend to go for a cappuccino or a latte.
You always look so fresh-faced. Is it the caffeine that brings out that great presence?
Edit: This is @millycf1976. I'm gonna switch to my account. This was an error from the community account:)
Oh, merciful Coffee Goddess, it must be the air conditioning on at full power that keeps my face fresh, hehe.
We've learned from mythology books that deities may take different identities when they descend to earth...
Coconut milk is our favorite at home for coffee, but my coffee is black most of the time, at home or at the coffee shop.
they are two good companions, I like that mascot and at home it is impossible to stop making coffee, I have never tried coffee with coconut milk, it would be a good idea.
My cats are always looking forward coffee time š¤
Hmm that's easy - I'd definitely love to change how drinking coffee at night disrupts my sleep. I hate the fact that I am restricted by the time of the day to drink coffee. There are times I am out for an evening walk with my wife and we walk past my favorite coffee shop - and the only thing that stops me from walking in is the time of the day. Decaf is an alternative, but I mean come one! What's coffee without that caffeine kick eh!
I however would like to keep the wake up "kick" of coffee in the morning too!
Asking for too much am I?
Well, sleepless nights or not...here's me drinking coffee after dinner last night!
I totally understand what you mean. Fortunately, I can go to sleep after having a cup of coffee, always I haven't drunk too many cups during the day. What makes me sleepless sometimes is not coffee but food. I can't sleep if I eat late--like today!
There's an interesting side to caffeine addiction. When you've reached a certain point of addiction, it's not the caffeine that hampers you sleep but the lack of it. There are no scientific research or statistically significant data available on this, but I myself was a caffeine addict (proudly so hehe), and I have experienced this firsthand!
Those days are long gone now, and I can keep my caffeine in check now :D
Well, there was a time in college when I needed coffee or I wouldn't sleep. Those days are long gone, too. One thing I know, I never drink string coffee in the evening.
Unless I need to do some nighttime activity, my coffee consumption is also restricted in the evening hours. I think if there was a way to drink coffee without affecting sleep it would be wonderful.
Thank you for leaving your comment.
Excellent day with a good cup of coffee.ā
Same here, if I have to pull of a late night and get some work done I'll resort to a strong cup of coffee. I however will make sure I get a quick power nap beforehand.
I often have night shifts in the medicine emergency, so this is quite a recurring habit for me š
I don't have a problem with coffee and sleep but to be honest I try not to drink coffee at night. However, stopping by my favorite coffee shop at night is a great excuse for a night coffee, hehe. Maybe you could try drinking it lighter at night or adding milk.
Sometimes I think it is also a preconception that if we drink it in the evening, coffee makes it difficult for us to sleep ;) Caffeine can aggravate falling asleep if we are under stress or have a disorder that makes it difficult for us to sleep. But a cup of coffee if we are relaxed and having a good time, should not make a difference, I think.
I agree, I think it is very much a psychological factor that plays on my mind if I drink coffee late in the evening. I automatically go into the mindset that I Won't be able to fall asleep easily tonight, so what ends up happening is I don't even try to sleep, I don't even go to bed. I just stay up, watch some movies or write something.
Great insight there! š
I like to make sure my cup of coffee is there if I need my brains!
Coffee can make you relax, consuming coffee without sugar or milk is better
Oh yes! A man of class I see eh! š
As make ch as I love a latte, I find myself consuming black drip coffee almost 80-85ā of the time. It's lighter, more convenient to make.
I can safely drink coffee whenever because caffeine does NOT give me energy!
I saw on a video presentation by a doctor that that can be a sign you have ADHD, and my father has ADHD, so maybe I do too. But either way - caffeine makes me sleepy. So sometimes when I cannot sleep at night, I drink coffee to help me sleep. :)
Thatās an interesting theory. š I will have to look into it, I hadnāt heard of it before.
So even after you wake up in the morning, drinking coffee doesnāt give you the "kick?"
Nope. I am chronically fatigued and nothing helps. š
I wouldn't change anything about my relationship with coffee for now. Coffee is a good friend, in good times and in times of stress.
But some weeks ago I made some changes. I was drinking a lot of cups a day, I lost account of how much, hehe. But because of my husband's medical prescription, he has had to drink less, in fact, he shouldn't drink at all, but at least he is limiting himself to a maximum of two cups a day, and I am doing the same at home. And I feel good. The first days, especially in the middle of the morning, sometimes I felt tired and sleepy, but now I'm doing great.
I enjoy my cups of coffee. I drink them slowly enjoying the moment and from time to time I have a cup in the afternoon in a coffee shop if the occasion arises.
Here I am with Milo enjoying my coffee this morning in excellent company. šŗāļø
Aw, Milo seems really lovely. I would quit my evening coffee for a daily dose of Milo! ššš
Doctors do that! They take your coffee away from you! Except for @simplifylife; he's a nice doctor who will let you drink your coffee at ease.
Doctors often take away coffee, and those who are supposed to stop drinking coffee turn a deaf ear š¤£
Milo says he'll gladly give you a special dose of Milo if you visit š¹š»
Milo is so sweet šā¤ļø
Taking just enough to make each experience sublime, I am one of those who think that the greatest pleasures in life come in small capsules. Hahaha.
Beautiful kitten you have, a beautiful Milo of love and companionship. Take care of it a lot.
Happy sunday!ā
The days I don't have to go in to work, like weekends and I'm trying to get some stuff done at home or write something - those are the days I'll feel the need of a second cup for the day. Otherwise, just the first cup gets me through till afternoon.
Coffee can make you relax, consuming coffee without sugar or milk is better
My coffee is always without sugar.
I can't understand why some people do this š
nice ! Actually, coffee already has a sweet taste, because coffee is basically fruit. If you choose coffee beans with a natural post-harvest process, you will find a sweet, fruity taste in your coffee
That was kind of you to stand in solidarity with your husband and lessen how much coffee you drank. :)
Hello sweet Milo... I think it's good that you can control your coffee consumption. After all, we should not be prisoners of our vices. I congratulate you.
good company Milo and cafe, it looks lovely, for me cafe is the best thing they have invented, I wouldn't change a thing about it either.
My relationship with coffee dates back to the time I was born.
My grandmother, who was a fanatic coffee addict, spared no effort to give coffee to the family that including me.
I was only a few days old when my grandmother Francisca introduced me to coffee.
With her delicate fingers of a proud grandmother, she spread on my lips the drink of the gods. From that moment on, I was marked.
Everyone who knows me knows that I am fascinated by coffee and that I have a project. To pack coffee in two-liter bottles and sell them. But everyone criticizes me for that.
So I would like to change the opinion of others. On my side, there is nothing to change.
All thanks to my grandmother.
Sweet grandmothers! My mother used to take coffee on her finger and run it over my son's lips when he was a little baby. He smiled every time. Funny and treasured memories. But my son is not an habitual drinker of coffee nowadays; what could've gone wrong?! Ha ha ha ha.
I think you should keep your word and honor your grannie's legacy š¤ā¤ļø
You'll see the two-liter bottles with Ger-Man brand coffee coming out.
I will send free samples to my friends.
Looking forward to it! Ha ha ha ha.
You have a great business on your hands, in truth I had never heard of a two-liter coffee, it would seem to me that it is a boom.
Thank you for leaving your comment.ā
A good day.
More than a two-liter coffee, it would be a coffee for the whole family.
I donāt know if you watched the TV show "Supernatural" but reading this reminded me of the time Sam Winchester got marked by Azazel š
No, I haven't seen it, but I will look it up to see how it relates to the mark my beloved grandmother left me.
Wow! I don't know where to begin to answer you. What I do want to make clear is my amazement at your story.
Grandmothers had this custom. I'm on your team of getting into coffee at an early age, but not as early as you, "dias de nacido" wao!!!! You have a record.
On the other hand, I support your proposal for the 2 litres of bottled coffee ššš¼ā. It would be great to buy this bottle and thus not be buying every now and then in the same ride. I support you. I'm even running for *coffee president ā.
The downside of this idea is when consumers start asking you for bigger bottles. So think again ššš¼
For those VIP customers or those who consume in industrial quantities, we have a direct tap system from the pot to your home.
What do you think?
Wooo! You're going to kill my brain with these revolutionary coffee ideas.
ha ha ha ha ha
Just let us know, and we will support your coffee campaign!!! š
You'll be my campaign manager and partner. ā¤ļø

I can't afford it
Coffee machines: recently the coffee machine in my kitchen broke. I don't know what happened to it, but it doesn't heat up the water enough and the result of making coffee is a mess all over the worktop.
I went to the shop to buy a new coffee machine. Prices for simple coffee makers range from $20 and up. The premium coffee makers cost between $190 and $278, while the exclusive espresso machines cost $750.
To be honest, I was disappointed that I could not afford these prices.
So I went to the section of coffee machines for the kitchen. The price was $18 and upwards and they are all 1 cup 6 oz . I couldn't find any machine I could afford š.
I would change this. A coffee lover would not have to worry about the price of a coffee machine. Nor about coffee. I think we should enjoy good coffee for a minimum cost.
I think they take advantage of the fact that there are many lovers of good coffee and that's why they put high costs on coffee makers regardless of their size or brand, there should be more accessible coffee makers, although I recommend that you go for the traditional coffee, with its cloth strainer.... just like in the old days!
That is what I did. I bought my cloth strainer for $0.5 and now the coffee is back at home.
I am very sorry, it is essential to be able to enjoy the taste of coffee, it is a shame that we live in a system where money takes precedence over well-being. You will have to save up to buy a new coffee maker,
I leave you a cup of delicious coffee.ā
Thank you for leaving your comment.
Happy sunday.
You are right. A cup of coffee is becoming a luxury and that worries me. I'll enjoy coffee while I can. Thanks for the encouragement and the coffee āā.
I feel ya! I've been eyeing a few espresso machines myself but the prices are a bit too steep for me too.
I might have to settle for a simple drip coffee maker for now.
In my case, my friend, I'll go back to fabric filters. I can't afford them now.
What do you use this tool to make? I can help you mix using this tool
Oh, I'm so sorry. Hopefully, you'll find a nice coffee maker that will make you happy without emptying your pockets.
I suffer so much because of that.
Our TV broke a couple of days ago, so we had to go buy a new one. While I was in the store, I saw this handsome Nespresso machine, and I thought, "Oh, I'd like to buy this for my sister's new office." Then I got closer and saw the price; I could hear my heart breaking.
š it's a pity. But one day we will be able to have this beauty and enjoy our homemade espresso with love. We deserve it as coffee lovers āā.
For now the cloth filter is fine ā¤ļøāš©¹
Ah, the old "coffee sock," hehe. It makes a clean and full-bodied cup of delicious coffee. I love it. I lost mine, so I need to buy a new one. I use it when we're too many for coffee time.
Absolutely true. In my case I went out to buy coffee and the cheapest one was about a third of my 15-day salary. Some people would say not to buy it but I had to adjust other things because coffee serves several functions. But it was not supposed to be that expensive. Happy week. Thanks for the class for those new to Cuba. I learned a lot with you. Cheers and best regards.
If you could change one thing about your relationship with coffee, what would it be?
If I had to change anything about my coffee, it would be to make it less sweet, i.e. less sugar, but I don't like plain coffee! I can't resist the temptation of a good coffee with vanilla milk and if you add condensed milk it becomes a coffee bonbon... and if it has more foam it becomes a divine Machiatto, and if you add a spoonful of chocolate...
I'd better not go on, excuse me, I'm going to have my afternoon coffee, Cheers!
I invite @aguamiel, she takes her coffee with cinnamon...
Less or no sugar would be great! I quit sugar in my coffee twenty years ago; now I can't stand sugar in my coffee, not even in my cup of macchiato. BUT, when I'm in the mood for dessert, I can have a cup of fancy sweet and creamy coffee, even a bombĆ³n or an affogato; it's just I can't call it coffee anymore, though, he he.
Once you quit sugar in your coffee, you'll get to love its taste more! You'll see.
Seriously... if you say so, it must be true but I don't dare to leave my coffee unsweetened, I prefer as Celia Cruz says: Azuuucarrrr!
My grandmother said: "between likes there are no dislikes." Each person enjoys his coffee the way he likes it best and that makes him a faithful companion for us.
Thank you for leaving your comment.
I leave you a cup of coffeeā
Good day.
Dang! I also always add some cinnamon sticks in the grinder when grinding beans!
Then it smells great!
Ohh! a real temptation.
But my beautiful friend, let me tell you that your problem is not with the coffee, it's with the additives in the precious dark liquid. Stay away from everyone else and enjoy your coffee.
I'll leave you a cup of the very Creole coffee I just made.
Chaqui...
coffee brewed in a strainer has an exquisite flavor.
that mug looks familiar...š¤š¬
They say that coffee is more enjoyable without sugar, because it changes its own flavor. I'm like you, coffee and sugar tastes good.
Greetings to those passionate about this rich beverage as is the CafƩ, to the friend @cinnccf.
When I read this conversational type initiative on the question asked, Let me tell you particularly, I go once to the nail š, I, I would not change anything regarding my relationship with this exquisite drink, as I consider myself to be prudent when taking it, I do not exaggerate or go over the amount of portions to be taken, taking into account that coffee contains like other tea its benefits for the body. Everything in quantity has its risks, so I have nothing to change in our relationship since we get along very well, we are great inseparable friends š. It was a pleasure to be able to share with you this brief chat. Blessings and thank you for your attention.
This is how it should be, drinking with caution and what is necessary so that our beloved coffee is a companion and not an enemy. The few cups you drink should be with great pleasure.
Thank you for leaving your comment.ā
Happy sunday.
I need a piece of your Yin-Yang!
hi friend, two cups a day, but please don't miss it, coffee makes our day.
Saludos jaja amiga, como perderme tan exquisita bebida. Gracias por la sugerencia, Bendiciones
Before i going to sleep, I leave you my participation in the delicious coffee conversation. ā
From my relationship with coffee I would change the way in which caffeine becomes addictive and when it reaches an exaggerated consumption it can cause health problems such as: insomnia, heart problems, headache, dizziness, dehydration, dependence, among others. This makes us to be careful in the consumption of large amounts of coffee.
As much as I want to consume large quantities of coffee, I must restrain myself, although as I mentioned at the beginning, when our friend caffeine does not want to leave us, that is where the problems come. I have always thought that coffee is good in moderate quantities, it becomes our friend, confidant, energy and encouragement to face the routine life.
Oh, caffeine, don't become my toxic lover! Jejej...
Greetings to all!
Happy sunday š
My heart is with you, hehe.
Sometimes, my husband gives me that look... and then I know it's too soon for another cup of coffee. You're totally right; we can't have all the coffee we want. I hope that could change. (I also wish the arepas didn't make me gain weight, but this is the cruel world we live in.)
The arepas are delicious, so you have to be very careful not to overdo it. A few at a time to satisfy taste. Everything in its balance.
Thank you for leaving your kind comment.
A cup of coffee with arepa.ā
Coffee and arepas, magical combination. You know, if my arepa comes with a cup of coffee, I can be satisfied with an arepita of 80 grams and a good filling.
At first I didn't like coffee, drinking coffee made my stomach feel nauseous and I wasn't used to it. Initially I learned to love coffee and worked in the coffee sector, learning more about coffee, especially in latte art. I work as a barista in a cafe. experience in the field of coffee changes the perspective between coffee and me. love coffee more because in coffee we can express what is in our hearts through a touch of concoction, art and artistry. Coffee is not just a taste but coffee is an art. This is my latte art work
Continue to love coffee from the blend you can find the taste contained in it
Coffe make everyone feels lovely

ENTER @WIN.HIVE'S DAILY DRAW AND WIN HIVE!
Coffee has been like a medicine to improve a bad mood.
I hope your stomach is okay now, I think work as barista need to test many type of coffee need strong stomach.
your hands are too big, use bigger cup please š
Specially if that coffee is for me, ha ha ha ha. Pliz, pliz š
What a beautiful and tempting latte! Lovely!
I'd like to learn so much about your work/art. I try to learn lttle things, as much as I can. In a few years I'll have plenty of time for that; weƱƱ, I hope to live enough for that, hehe. Meanwhile, I'm enjoying a lot what you baristas can do. It's amazing... And it's more amazing you had to learn to love coffee. Wow! That's pretty odd for a barista. I'm glad you're a coffee lover now.
Cool
I like black coofe
Bravo! A beauty. I love the art in the cafe. š„¹ It's been a while since I've tried one like that. But I love it.
Thank you for giving us this delicious and beautiful preparation.
do you use drip from cloth? very good for you, very easy to use
The one thing I'd like to change is the cost of coffee. Coffee and creamers are like those toxic partners and relationships. where one partner likes to splurge all the money and deal some damage to your wallet. Then they leave, knowing that you want more, so you keep coming back for more; until you're absolutely high and addicted on coffee and your bank balance is missing a few thousand takas.
I just wish she(coffee) would love me for who I am, and not my money. Maybe she'll change for the better, one day... š¬
Btw, I promise that's not an empty mug. š I always sip on some coffee during this time, usually after 8PM, so that I can successfully sabotage my sleep. š
Haha, right Good Coffee and creamer are costly, but at least you got some profit by decreasing your time/need to sleep š .
I say it's more of a loss, not much profit. š¤
You're making me reconsider what I'd like to change about my relationship with coffee...
It's surely a matter that deserves a second thought; especially with all the rising costs. Coffee prices in my country have gone up by 20% to 30% in the past months. š¤
A good coffee breaks the wallet, we can't do anything in that sense, despite the cost we can't stop drinking the delicious dark one. To work harder to afford that expensive pleasure, hehehe.
Thank you for leaving your comment.ā
Good day.
The dark elixir of pleasure, vigor, and clarity haha.
Oh, indeed! It does keep us on track, whether it be through drinking, or simply working hard to afford and then douse the desire to buy and drink the best kind of coffee.
I thank you for dropping by. Do take good care of yourself.
I don't remember when I first drank coffee, maybe when I was 5-6 years old. When I was little, my father went to my grandmother's house almost every day and I often came along. Usually, the grandmother always provides 2 glasses of coffee with milk in a cupboard.
I don't know the milk used but the coffee is black coffee because there is still powder sitting at the bottom.
My father was always given a cup of coffee with milk when he arrived there, and when I tried it I really liked it, Maybe for me, it was the sweet taste of milk that I liked better at that time.
After several years passed I had a bad experience when drinking coffee, at that time I was 11-12 years old and was taking a school promotion exam, I was not a diligent child and the exam material had 3 subjects.
I studied from noon to 9 p.m., and there was still a lot of material that I had to study, so I decided to drink a large amount of black coffee to stay fresh studying at night. I also didn't use a glass at that time but instead used a saucepan made from metal, I remember pouring more than 3 tablespoons of black coffee.
Long story short, finally the one pot of coffee was finished, actually, at that time I didn't like the taste because it was too bitter. When it was 2 pm I decided to sleep because the exam was at 6 o'clock.
It turned out that the influence of the coffee was very strong, my heart started to pound, and I couldn't sleep even though I closed my eyes, I don't remember what time I finally managed to sleep, maybe 4 in the morning and wake up at 5 in the morning. On that day I felt very dizzy, my eyes were burning and watering because I was sleepy, and it was difficult to concentrate. I just want to finish the exam quickly and go home to sleep. Since then I no longer drink coffee, another reason because my grandmother started to get sick, so I no longer have coffee with milk in the cupboard. A few years later, many instant coffee products began to appear, both ready-made and in powder form, and I started to try and like coffee again.
As I got older and my health knowledge increased, I finally realized that the sugar contained in instant coffee was not good for my health. And decided to drink black coffee more often. But sometimes I still drink instant coffee if I need it quickly, and also if there is a new product like in the below picture.
This product is a local instant coffee product and just came out last week in a supermarket, I bought it because I want to try the taste. As usual, I didn't like it because it was too sweet, and finally, I shared the rest with relatives and friends (1 pack contains 9 sachet coffee instant). It seems my relationship with coffee is one of love and hate.
Finally, I found true love in Black Coffee š but sometimes I still glance at Instant Coffee š.
It was a difficult experience you had with coffee, at least you came back through the dark side, hehehe.
Coffee is always beneficial in its correct measure.
Thank you for leaving your comment.ā
Good day.
Too much of everything is bad. That's why coffee in its right measure is a blessing.
What a thought-provoking experience you share with us.
indeed everything too much is not good, only with the right dose of coffee will have a positive effect. Thank you š
This is how I usually take my coffee (I don't usually have whipped cream though, but sometimes). I don't like coffee plain, but I make a blender drink with it that is kind of like a homemade frappuccino. š It's quite tasty.
If I could change one thing, I suppose I would like for coffee to give me energy. Caffeine makes me sleepy if anything, not awake. So as I said in another comment, sometimes if I can't sleep, I drink a coffee and it knocks me out.
I actually didn't start drinking coffee at all until my late 30s, and I didn't know that caffeine made me sleepy before then, too. Prior to that my only caffeine consumption was soda or chocolate, so it was never a lot so I hadn't made the connection. But then I worked the night shift at the hospital, and I tried drinking energy drinks to stay awake and I was nodding off at the desk! That's when I finally figured out that caffeine has the opposite effect on me. I started drinking coffee as a way to make a protein shake (that's what I make in the blender).
I average one or two coffee drinks per day, so no, before you ask - it isn't because I've become so addicted I need the caffeine to sleep, lol.
That's what I call candy-coffee. I'm drooling... That's perhaps my favorite dessert in the whole world so far. But if I have one of those, I must go for a cup of steaming black coffee immediately, otherwise my brain won't believe me that I did have coffee, hehe.
LOL
I know people who get sleepy with caffeine. It must be crazy, for me it's the opposite, it activates me and I need more to go through my daily routine.
As for your taste in cream, don't worry! We all have strange tastes in coffee. I'll share mine with you. Chocolate coffee āš«
Chocolate in coffee is delicious! :)

BEER.Hey @chacald.dcymt, here is a little bit of
BEERfrom @phoenixwren for you. Enjoy it!Learn how to earn FREE BEER each day by staking your
BEER.Do you ever heard with GERD or Gastroesophageal reflux disease and anxiety disorder??
i have both and many studies tell that coffe is one of the cause. But, yeah i am trying not drinking coffe within a month and guess what my ill worsened. Everyday i feel anxiety and my Gastro reflux is increased significantly. So thats why i still drinking coffe. and coffe is one of my best friend while waiting someone or working on content and playing some games.Makes me calm and can thinking clearly. And almost 8 years i am friend with coffe with many many creation that i make from terrarium,aquascape,content,cactus,or even diorama for miniature figure. So, maybe many journal is right that coffe increasing the reflux in our stomach but,deep down the anxiety that increasing more the reflux and it will like rat race. And for me drinking coffee trully reducing anxiety and stress especially at making something artistic.
That's a true dilemma! I guess I'd get anxious too if I was deprived from my precious coffee. But you have tried quitting and it didn't work. It's a tough situation.
I just hope everything is well in your stomach. Sometimes, Helicobacter pillory does that and people get better immediately after beginning treatment.
I wish you luck with that, my friend š
yeah but now i can manages the anxious a little and dont fear drinking coffe again
Coffee ā? It's my best working partner. It's always good to have around. I understand you
Thank you beautiful genius @yenmendt for the invitation and for that beautiful photo!
I confess that my relationship with coffee has been amorously balanced. I take it guarapito - light black - without sugar, with a cinnamon stick; its flavor is delirious, that's how I like it and I enjoy it in the afternoon, I avoid it at night because the very seductive, it steals my sleep... āļøš«
I invite my @verdesmeralda friend
Ah! Tea is another of my delights
I wish I was as virtuous as you, my friend, but I'm flawed, hehe.
I also like a cinnamon stick to sweeten my guayoyo šš
My beautiful friend, everyone has their own way... as my mother used to say, haha
so however we like our coffee is perfect.
Ummm this recipe invites a cup of good coffee...let's toast my friend.
Tan bella Chaqui!
Health and life dear woman

I confess that I am a victim of its bitter taste and strong aroma. It combines several aspects that make me love it and sometimes hate it, and it seems to me that it is this love-hate relationship that I would try to change. Let me explain:
Coffee is my morning lover and my first impulse, he makes every morning pleasant and pleasant just with the pleasure of tasting, but when it runs out and I have to buy it in the market I hate it because every time its price rises more and more in the market and buying it means a sacrifice that I always make for one of my favorite loves. But, who said that love is easy?
I totally understand. I'd like to have millions so I could treat all my friends around the world to delicious coffee everyday.
Prices here are also crazy sometimes; however, I think we pay little for good coffee in Venezuela when compared to USA or UK, for example. I pay $10 for a kilo of good coffee beans; not specialty coffee but of a good quality.
I join in this desire to have and be able to invite all my friends, workers, neighbors and acquaintances to a good coffee.
I wish I could share it with all the members of this community. Greetings and best regards.
Cuba present šāšØšŗ
I understand perfectly what you are saying. I myself am in a dilemma with the price of coffee makers. I feel overwhelmed. But when I lived in Cuba, I used to make the Venezuelan type strainer with cloth. Cuba taught me to be a fighter so my relationship with coffee remains despite the prices.
I also consume it, in spite of the prices, even though sometimes, like now, you have to choose a cheaper coffee to be able to buy the food you need to live. I was happy with your answer because you are a Cuban.
I was in Venezuela and I love that country. Happy week. Cheers and best regards.
Happy week to you and here's to a virtual coffee āšØšŗš»šŖ
The same to you. Happy journey. Cheers and greetings. A virtual coffee
We all have a relationship with coffee; be it null, basic or special. And the fact that it is a special relationship consists of several levels, within which I find myself in an addictive relationship.
Coffee is. He allows himself to enjoy and taste it but I take it to other areas converting it into an addictive relationship. Actually, if my day goes by without a drop of its essence, a headache is certain. I can't live without it. That's why I wish my relationship wasn't so dependent.
First of all, that cheese next to the coffee reminds me of that Scandinavian kaffeost we were talking about in a previous coffee conversation, hehe.
I would also like to be less dependent on coffee!
I understand what you are saying. It has happened to me many times. What can we do about this intense love of caffeine?
maybe trying to decrease it little by little every time make a coffee will help to for more healthier relationship š.
