Re: Rant: No Caffeine

I'm on my third cold brew and feel like I could lift a train.
I think coffee is like booze: extraordinary in moderation.
I've had these runs where I drink it all day. Make some at home in the morning, pick up a 12oz cup on the way to work, bottomless coffee at work as late even as 10, 11PM, and I don't feel like it's effecting me. Then I lay off for a few weeks and I feel great, sleep great. I've only felt the effects of coffee when not drinking it.
I'll never give it up forever because it's too great a pleasure. The molasses smell while the grounds are blooming, the floral aroma, the bitter and acidic whack to the palate of the first sip. It's just too good, like whiskey or red wine.
