Are you a caffeine addict?
Hey, no worries if you are. I think this is a
common addiction of most of us around the
globe. We can't help it of course. Once we get
that taste of the fresh java, we're virtually
hooked for life. So now the only dilemma is
finding the best coffee in town. I prefer to
make my own. This way I can make it exactly the
way I prefer it. Not like in the coffee shop
when they mess it up and put too much syrup and
you're just screwed. No big deal, right? It's
only like five bucks down the drain! Anyway,
although most of us enjoy a daily cup of java or
two, it doesn't always sit well in our
stomachs. In fact, it actually bothers some
folks more than others. This is why God made
low acid coffee. That way you can have that
caffeine fix without the upset tummy.
Have you ever tried low acid
coffee? It's certainly not bad, nor does it
even taste different if you ask me. You see,
one problem I find with coffee beans in general
is their age. Far too many retail coffee shops
like the one with the green sign, who will go
un-named, sell their blends too late. They act
like they can just order loads of coffee beans
and sell them whenever. This is not the way it
should be done. Any coffee nut can tell you
that the life of the bean isn't long after it
has been roasted to perfection. In fact, shelf
life is generally one to two weeks. Did you
know that? Once that time has passed, an acidic
oil is secreted from the coffee beans, which
alters the flavor. Who in the heck wants old
coffee beans? Not me!
