HangryThis has become a hot topic with my friends. I always grab/make a cup after skiing around like 5 to prepare for the night
If I'm going out for the night, whether it be after work, or after doing something physically taxing, I love hitting the cup of coffee. I have a Saeco coffee maker, worth more than most of my belongings but god damn is it nice to get that fresh ground cup at the push of a button. I will say troubleshooting that thing and cleaning it is a pain in the ass though.

The cleaning grind is always worth it though. I treat my coffee machine better than my skis
Never is too late. Depends how much caffeine affects you. I could drink a cup and sleep two hours later if I needed to. In general though not within 5-6 hours of sleep

Pretty much this. I usually drink tea in the evening though, strong black tea though never green nor herbal.
I know others who can't drink coffee after lunchtime or 2:00 because they won't get to sleep well.
Apparently it’s bad for you to drink coffee past 1 in the afternoon.
But if I’m going out drinking and I need an energy boost I’ll make a cup with dinner. But even after a night out drinking I still find it hard to fall asleep sometimes
Try to stop drinking it by mid-late afternoons now. I used to drink it religiously at any hour of the day or night which was bad. Working 3pm to 11pm sucked and you're still a little wired when you get home by like 12 or 1am so getting to sleep usually sucked
Not a coffee drinker myself, I have tried but it just doesnt taste good to me no matter how much stuff I add to it to try and make it better. I just stick with water. Maybe an energy drink if I need to pull an all nighter.
What’s the energy drink of choice in that scenario? I can only do redbull, smaller portion and it doesn’t taste as syrupy

Man I can't believe coffee effects other people so much. I could drink a coffee or a monster or a red bull or basically anything literally right before bed and not have an issue falling asleep. I guess my body just rejects it or something.

This for me as well.
I only have coffee or an energy drink (seems to be less effective) when I'm doing a long drive, going all night, or am about to work and haven't had enough sleep. I think coffee has become a bit of a clutch/necessity for others.
On another note, do any of you think coffee/caffeine is a drug? I'd say it is based off of definition

*ninja*I don't usually drink coffee but when i do I like it black
The best way to do it. I'll enjoy a cappuccino or some other fancy drink from time but in general, nothing beats black coffee. Cream and sugar gang can fuck off

Im not into the paleo thing but I tried putting butter in my black coffee a while back and its bomb. That is the only way I drink it now and something about the fat in the butter regulates how you absorb the caffeine so I dont get jittery.
I do Keurigs first thing in the morning. Cheap and easy. Add a little heavy whipping cream to any Kpod and you are in business. I have 2-3 cups of coffee before lunch at work but typically don’t have caffeine in the afternoon unless I am feeling like a total piece of shit and need something to finish my work day in which I will either do a monster rehab or black tea. I’ll do a sugar free Red Bull anytime if my wife is buying, I am the dirt bag and she is the one with champagne tastes.
