How about coffee. I decided I'll get back on the wagon, looking forward to it actually.

Went with a French press coffee maker and Amazon Fresh Columbian ground coffee. Want to go cheap but not TOO cheap. Want some quality too.

My coffee game is weak, but I do know I like Columbian.

Anybody got some good coffee suggestions?
 
I think the key with coffee is how you make it. I use an Aeropress which is a bit like a French press but single serve. It uses a paper filter instead of mesh, so you can use a finer grind and/or regular pre-ground coffee.

You'll want to grind your own beans if you want better taste/quality, but I'm guilty of buying pre-ground from time to time. I just buy whatever is on sale.
 
Hadn't heard of Aeropress, just only knew that French Press is so much better than a traditional coffee maker, will keep it in mind - looks cool. Agreed on buying what's on sale. The cheaper one was the 8 o'clock bean, but I'm thinking that's probably dogshit. Used to sell Gevalia in my prime employment days (not) and it is awesome coffee, but so expensive.
 
You have to grind your coffee beans and roast date is important - consume within a month. Single origin.

Hockey players used to abuse the stuff.

I use Sinus+Allergy Reactine during allergy season - it has an extended-release 120mg total of pseudo. If I take it in the morning I can feel the second 60mg kick in after lunch. It's just a mild pick-me-up but it totally works when you're a bit tired/underslept.

Yah it's amphetamine based and a stimulant. Arch I don't think its been banned in the US you just have to register the purchase and get it from behind the counter.

i'm just saying I never felt any stimulation from it in cold medicines back in the day


now it's chemical father, Ephedrine was an amazing stimulant that we lost due to some fat ass major league pitcher
 
Steven Scott Bechler (November 18, 1979 – February 17, 2003) was an American professional baseball pitcher, who played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Baltimore Orioles. ... A medical examiner found that Bechler's use of ephedra as a weight-loss supplement contributed to his death.

Wow, same first and middle name as me and birthday 12 days away. I am staying away from that stuff.
