What's the worst coffee worldwide?

[Trenchfriend]

But it's funny. If I would be asked:

"Choose, for the rest of your life!":

Black tea or coffee?

With only coffee, for the rest of my life, I would def. miss my black tea with brown sugar, very soon!

But other way, I wouldn't miss coffee.

How long do the caffeine withdrawal symptoms last on you?

I now can say, everytime I'm switching back to caffeine-free, one and a half day (with one or two Ibuprofen), then it's fine again.

"Caffeine withdrawal"??? I'm sorry, I don't understand the question.

The worst coffee - the one we had on my first job. The coffee itself was a bad, over toasted, one. But the way it was made turned coffee on a kind of sulphuric acid.

Around 20 liters were made on Monday. Workers would drink 18. So Thursday they would make just 18 and add to refill the reservatory. The same on Wednesday to Friday.

Later we bought a coffee machine and fine coffee. No wonder that soon all bosses came to visit our department to talk about “work” - and take a cup of true coffee!

Hi, is your lack of understanding because you've never quit coffee when you started years ago or because you don't drink coffee?

Coffee Withdrawl is the physical discomfort (to put it lightly), when you give up caffeine for a week. About the second day you get cotton mouth and a headache that won't go away. Both last quite a while, like 2 or 3 days. It's a lot like a hangover, but you don't barf.

The former. Also, I tried going without coffee one morning several years ago; can't say I cared for it.

Yes, the biggest bucks are shot at the waterhole…

Yeah, lovely pets and good tasting coffee bring people together.

And even a small 2nd-size Moka pot can bring unbelievabe FOUR Mokkas for the tiny Espresso cups, haha!

Here in Brazil on 1930s/50s coffee was said as “hospitality beverage”. Ever today when we meet a friend on street we invite for a coffee. So surely I agree with you!

I once forfeited coffee for Lent. Three days into Lent I said the hell with it and threw a pot on.
Coffee and big band music start my mornings. Black, and Glenn Miller's Moonlight Serenade.

On those rare occasions I get more than an hour or two into the day without coffee I get a headache.

Sure, because your body has become addicted to the Ol' Devil caffeine. My late wife used to get horrible migraine-like headaches if she didn't have her first cup of coffee at approximately the same time every single day.

The lovely missus got us a Costco membership. Dark roasted whole bean arabica in the 2 1/2-pound bag works out to $4.97 per pound. That’s somewhat less than half the cost at the “regular” store.

The funny thing is, that when you brew with the classic simple moka pot, you have more than doubled to even tripled (classic 1 cup Bialetti) amount of coffee per cup, BUT the flow solves very very less caffeine, so on some (fresh grounded) weaker coffees, I don't even noticed any caffeine, true story.

If your flow was to slow, your grind was simply to fine.
