0-2 cups on non work days. 2 to 4 mugs on days that I work.

I'm a bartender currently and I also go to day time college classes so I often have to pound coffee once it gets around 11pm.

The Blue Bottle Bella Donovan came today. I could smell it as I approached the mailbox. Roasted three days ago!

I just had twelve oz. of some organic Peruvian light roast and it's gotten on top of me in a not wholly pleasant way. I think I may have to jigger the 30g coffee/350g water brew ratio for this one.

over the past six hours, I have essentially consumed an entire pitcher of cold-brewed coffee. it is not a pretty scene: body shaking, stomach doing things stomachs shouldn't do. now I remember why I stopped making this stuff, and I quit again.

Ugh, man, eat some bread, drink some water. That's why I can't do coldbrew at home, as we discussed upthread.

or, alternatively, dilute! dilute! dilute!  milk or water or rum, your choice.

I DO think of it like whiskey. you guys should see me with whiskey. moderation is not always my strong suit.

This is a pretty accurate description of me after one cup of regular coffee, and is why I gave it up cold turkey 20+ years ago. Having said that I still love the idea of it, and I've been drinking a lot more decaf lately to fill that niche.

MAN do I hope this Thai iced coffee has a kick, because I am staring down an all-nighter to meet a deadline after a long day on five hours of sleep, and I could use the assist.

I get Vietnamese iced coffee with my pho.  It is just percolated double strength coffee, ice, and sweetened condensed milk. It is the only time I drink coffee with anything in it.

six hours later, I'm still awake and nominally alive, so I guess the iced coffee worked.

I've been up for about 22 hours now, and this has officially entered the death-march phase. but I am not going to bed until this fucking thing I'm working on--now, at 2am, technically due today--is done. which might be a while.

on-topic, I wish I had more coffee.

I drove back from Soundwave (3hrs, having done the drive up the night before), so to get through the festival and the drive, I got wired on energy drinks, Coke, vitamin tablets and coffee. Now my body is punishing me. If I had the shakes then I slept through them, but I also slept through yesterday and half of today.

I thought Vietnamese coffee was (strong) drip?

also, I don't think I've ever had Thai coffee (hot or iced).  I didn't realize it had things in it besides coffee & sweetened condensed milk.  I'll have to give it a try.

does it? hopefully my post didn't suggest that, because as far as I know that's basically it, just jacked-up coffee. very fucking good jacked-up coffee.

also, stayed up till 4:30 and . . . did not get project quite done. so back up at 10:30 and now plugging away, it is TIME FOR MORE COFFEE.
the subject of this thread is the only thing keeping me alive. this is a rough week.

I got my info from Wiki:

but perhaps that isn't 100% right?

also, adf, I would suggest massive amounts of water to counteract the side-effects of caffeine.

This is how I've always had it, but I don't really know quite what the mechanism is

My kid's been sick, we went from sleeping in 3-hr bursts to failing to sleep in 20-min bursts. Without coffee, I would literally be a zombie.

I brought two 4 packs of these back from Portland

and I've been enjoying the hell out of them. Today's their expiration date, though, so I gave two of em away and am drinking the last one right now.
