Has anyone here tried or knows someone who owns one of those Nespresso machines? The ones where you put the little cup in and it has 16 different flavors? Nespresso - Homepage That's the site.. On the one hand I'm curious, and on the other hand... It might turn out to be all hype.... Worth...

So, had a friend send me an article on male pattern baldness and how it's caused by this and that, and he said that with the coffee I drink, I shouldn't have gone bald! Well, apparently, he's right.. Here's the article: Coffee & Hair Loss | LIVESTRONG.COM Although, I could never drink 60 cups...

With the holidays upon us, I was reflecting on what to lay out for this years spread.. I'm trying to think of something new and exciting. Got the gourmet coffee, and the tables, decorations etc, but need to know what to lay out this year. In years past Gingerbread men (store bought of course...

Ok, I have scoured the forum here, and this is actually something new to me.. Has anyone here ever heard of bulletproof coffee? I guess it's where they put butter or coconut oil in the coffee? Anyone here ever tried it, or have more information on it? I did a search online, but all I find...

Even though coffee relaxes me, I guess we also need to take into consideration it raises blood pressure as well.. Now, it probably won't make a huge difference unless you are drinking an exaggerated amount, but something to keep in mind. Caffeine: How does it affect blood pressure? -...

Ok, So I was bored and surfing around the net sipping a cup of coffee, and I stumbled across a site that listed some very... interesting things you can do with coffee.. Now, some of these I had heard of before, but the majority I hadn't.. Here are some of the interesting things you can do...

I'm curious... How many of you prefer sweet blends to bitter blends? I guess it depends a lot on the circumstances, but do you have a set preference? I definitely tend to prefer the bitter blends myself (with those times like dessert where you might prefer a sweet blend after). What do you...

Halloween is upon us, and I wanted to share a recipe that was pretty darned good for orange coffee :) Take your favorite roasted coffee and add a dash (1 oz or less, depends on your personal taste) of orange liqueur. Sounds weird, tastes great. It also goes really well with pumpkin pie :)...

You know, I got to thinking about this this morning, and I did a quick Google, but I couldn't find it. I thought for sure somewhere I saw that coffee was used by some ancient cultures in rituals, but that they also "sent some off" to the after life when they prepared their deceased. I know...

You know, I was standing in line at the local coffee stop and was taking a look around, and I noticed something... There were very few advertisements. I mean, sure for their own products there were a couple, and there was ONE advertisement on the door about a special brand of imported coffee you...

Unfortunately Brian... There is... And you really don't want to run across it.... Yeah, low and behold the most vile Irish Cream on the face of the planet... I really really really really REGRET letting someone put that in my gourmet coffee... It is Bailey's or bust.. I'd rather go without...

Hello All, Tried this last night and it was pretty good. What you will need: 1 cup of your favorite brewed coffee: 1 oz of Cherry Liqueur (I think any brand will do) When you have the hot cup of coffee ready (please note, this is really only for black coffee, I have not tried it with...

I know coffee is considered an "upper" but has anyone here used to relax? I'm thinking if you add some chocolate and some milk, it could be quite soothing. What are some of your best "relaxing" coffee recipes? (Oh and FYI, cheese in the coffee is NOT advisable).....

Got a question for you. Now, some say that sometimes to keep coffee fresh longer they will store the coffee in the refrigerator or even the freezer, does this have any adverse effects? I could see maybe moisture being an issue perhaps? Does anyone here store their coffee in a refrigerator or...

Wait a minute! I remember when a large coffee was $1.25 to $3.50 depending on the amount of cream/sugar you put in! Now you are telling me it can be almost $6!!!!! That is a bit ridiculous for a coffee don't you think? The price of coffee has increased 5 TIMES in the last few years?? Why is...

Has anyone else noticed this? I sometimes can't stand to drink a hot beverage in the morning, but still like to get in my coffee... So I'll drink an iced coffee (not cappuchino or anything like that, normal iced coffee). Now, when I do this, I am noticing that I do not get that same "kick"...
