I have anywhere from 6-8 shots a day and never felt anything but good on it. Having said that instant coffee (its not really coffee people but lets stick with the same nonclemature), even one, makes me sick in the guts.

PS. Too much is when you have heart palpitations...and espressed coffee has about half the caffeine of instant

g'day Ozscott...

I too am a CoffeeSnob

Just ran out of my WOW and am on to a stronger blend. Am down to 2 - 3 shots a day.

during uni maybe three or more litres per day , and still nodded off in some lectures then as a truck driver a bit more sixteen ounce cups made bulk purchases easier. just beware the side effects if going without ! the headaches were horrendous but i didnt skake as badly anymore.

I dislike coffee and I dislike coffee snobs too. My sister is a coffee snob and 99% of the coffees that she orders she'll end up complaining about / criticising. I do not offer to make anybody coffee and I'm sure as hell not investing in coffee-related infrastructure just so that I can make proper coffee for people who drop in.

There's also another aspect of the coffee culture that I dislike but it breaches the Conditions of Access.

I love coffee and definitely have the coffee snob gene but it all just got too hard and expensive and beyond my kitchen bench space.

So I got one of those Nespresso machines. Works for me and I buy proper coffees from cafes but not so often because I dunno the dark side has taken me and Ive lost interest.

Bit like giving up on Landrovers and buying an XTrail but there you go, you can't be right about everything.

Gday Catch 22 - I have the same handle over on coffeesnobs. mate. Yep the WOW is good gear. Andy really does a great roast with that. I like darker roasts with a long slow profile between first and second crack, and Andy seems to roast the same way to bring out the choc and malt and strong rich mouthfeel.

Let me know your user name for the other site or PM them to me.

Cheers

I like how brutal you are with your comments mate...we might be coffeesnobs but you cant be too hard cause we are also Landy owners!!

I like coffee.

But I try and stop drinking before I wake up on the prawn trawler.
