You have some missing data Eric,
I have always “cut” my coffee with a dash of milk.
It’s far too bitter otherwise.

Yes Zac, Saffron is awsome with people suffering from ” Gout”

I have a theory about why the coffee becomes so intrinsic beyond just the caffeine that keeps a person going. Coffee has the most flavors of any food or drink- over 800 have been found in fresh roasted coffee. The next closest food is Vanilla with over 200 flavors. As the olfactory senses are stripped from Alzheimer’s patients it seems they still seek the flavor they can’t actually taste- coffee may provide that link. Certain spices also work this way, such as saffron which has proven effect to combat dementia.

I drink over 3 cups of coffee a day, except in the cold winter, I started drinking GREEN TEA. I have never cared for tea, except when my mother loaded it with sugar when I felt bad.
I started, to keep warm in the house, without drinking coffee all day. At first, I put honey in it, yummm. I ran out of honey one day and managed to drink it without sugar or honey, and by the end of the day, as long as it was warm, I liked it. I still have my 2 or 3 cups of coffee to start the day.(no spell-check?)
I make about 3 caraffs of it a day(just adding one more tea bag on top of the older tea bags, and it tastes fine. YOU WILL GET USED TO IT.
