Their coffees taste good while I’m drinking them but I always end up with a headache afterward. Will stick elsewhere.

I just bought a bag of “Death Wish” coffee. Pretty smooth with a kick. A little pricey . . . but I like it.

All extra caffeine would do for me, is make me go to the bathroom even more than I already do. I limit myself to two cups each day.

Caffeine is bad for you. It’s like a “check cashing” shack by the side of a highway.

And, for a real jolt, try a snort or two of "Meth Coffee".

Fun fact: lighter roasts contain more caffeine. The darker the bean, the less caffeine.

Well I’ve already been getting “charged extra” coffee from them. May as well get “extra charged.”

My coffee of choice, Joe Muggs. Sold at Books A Million. A few years ago I first started going to the VA. They had plenty of coffee in bags on a table. Was donated to the VA by Joe Muggs. They told me to take a couple of bags. Just ran out so my first choice was to buy some there. Was freshly ground and awesome.

The proper way to have more caffeine in coffee is to not over roast and burn the beans.

Here’s a little lesson about coffee. Green (unroasted) coffee beans do not contain caffeine. Caffeine is created during the roasting process as a result of a chemical reaction that takes place upon the application of heat to the beans. During the roasting process the beans actually ‘pop’, somewhat like popcorn, but not to nearly the same degree. They grow by about 40% when done correctly. The trouble comes in when you continue to roast it.

There is a point in the roasting process where additional heat actually begins to break down the caffeine that was created earlier in the process. Most really dark coffee has actually had a significant about of that caffeine roasted out of it, because it has essentially been burned. Yeah, that gives it a bitter flavor, which a lot of folks seem to like, but it actually destroys most of the real coffee flavor that is what, IMO, makes coffee good.

I roast my own beans and the only time my coffee tastes nasty and bitter is if I screw up. Instead, I end up with coffee that has really complex flavors, and from some farms is actually almost fruity in flavor. I’m a big fan of african coffees, and my go to brew is from a farm in Harrar. I think that’s the reason, not actually the farm name, though I’m not sure.

Almost all Starbucks coffee has had any flavor in it roasted out to within an inch of its life. Also, they mix in beans from a bunch of different places, so you don’t actually taste the particular flavor that might be found on a particular farm or growing region.
