☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!

Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Hard to describe but if I have coffee sometimes I get this like tunnel vision / high contrast effect with my eyes, which I can assume is a result of caffeination.

Anyone else? No, just me? Ok I guess I’m crazy then.

Caffeine is a stimulant and stimulant psychosis is real. I take a very small amount of CBD (10mg weekly) which keeps me from developing eye twitches and, to some extent, I suspect, paranoia. I drink about a liter of light roast pourover every day, lol. I also do Chemex, and those bonded filters sure do suck out a ton of oil, which is not as tasty but gives me a much cleaner feel. I haven't got the jitters since I switched from Aeropress, which is one step above eating coffee beans whole.
