What type of coffee are you drinking?

I used to tell myself I didn’t have a caffeine problem. “I only drink 3 cups a day” I thought.

And then I went to SERE and had a splitting headache for the first three days of field phase...

And so I did the rational thing and started drinking coffee again as soon as I finished the course.
 
Brass Tacks coffee in Jax is a good local go to. Whole foods has decaf whole beans so I'll get some of those every once in a while (I like night coffee but don't want to get wired).

Our MREs at SERE had packets of instant coffee in them that most people wanted nothing to do with and were happy to give away. Myself and a few others were happy to collect as many as we could and had instant coffee in our canteen cups most mornings we were in the field. It was a good small victory!

I did the same for my fellow classmates from my locker at Newport. We got coffee privileges on day 2 or 3 but I kept it up for the camaraderie.
 
When I'm at home I'm a fan of good, cheap espresso. I don't have an espresso maker but it brews up just fine in a percolator and tastes pretty good. Better yet is to press it, one cup at a time (repurpose the coffee pot as a ready hot water supply) and it tastes even better. Pretty hard to beat at $3 for a brick.

Cheap and tasty/tasty and cheap!
