It's the time for cozy moments, and there is nothing quite like a steaming cup of coffee to warm your spirits. By infusing your coffee with flavors suited for these seasons you can create delightful beverages that are not only delicious but great for making memories.

What are your favourite stay-inside recipes?

Cinnamon adds a warm and comforting aroma to coffee, try getting the best organic cinnamon rolls you can get and grind them in your spice grinder. A pinch of this spice not only brings flavor, but it's said that it might support a better health. It's sweet and woody notes make it perfect for the darker days ahead.

Crushed up almonds can enhance and enrich your coffee by adding a more nutty flavor. Just a few almonds inside of your pourover or immersion brew can make it have a luxurious taste. Almonds add a depth to the brew and changes up your regular cup.

Coca nibs are less suited for an immersion brew, but for short filtration they can add an explosive taste to your cup. Be sure to use raw unsweetened nibs, to benefit from their warmth and antioxidants that contribute to your well-being.

Do you have any other great additions? How about mixing up your brew with spiced herbal tea?

Yes, I know that's an airfryer but I don't roast beans in it. This is my new setup as per yesterday. Missing is the Hario hand grinder here.

Most used equipment is most likely the V60 on the right. That's my daily brewer.

A bit of a strange title, but I couldn't come up with something more summarising. A few weeks ago I've ended up getting to the hospital. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.

Since then by reading leaflets, browsing the web and consulting specialists, I've learned that the disorder and diabetes can influence both positive and negative on each other. While I believe that's true in a heartbeat, it's hard to find good research on it in a normal readable way (not too medical).

Anyone in a similar situation or just interested with some good material to read?

Thanks for being such a great bunch of coffee geeks, starters and intermediates! In order to be a good netizen and to keep this community alive, there is room for a few (1-2) moderators here.

I've been ordering and visiting some of these roasters at their businesses. They're small, and very knowledgeable. They're worth a visit or an order to test them out.

Koffiestation - Groningen Small roasters that deliver by bike in the city of Groningen. They have a great starter pack and tasting pack.

Black and Bloom - Groningen Winner of several awards with a very cozy shop near the university. Also sells great baked sides.

Fascino Coffee - Weert Medium sized roaster with a great consistent set of beans that you can rely on.

Kahawa Pakaya - Norg Speciality coffee from the eastern countries in Africa. Great flavours in pretty packaging.

Giraffe Coffee - Rotterdam Roasters with an enormous passion for coffee, and you can taste it.

Moyee - Amsterdam Hip and vibrant packaging, they sell a coffee subscription that uses a different microlot every time. Their regular coffee is very reliable and well balanced.

Rum Baba - Amsterdam Bold and unique coffee flavours. Delivers by bike in Amsterdam.

All resources look official, by name and by images. Maybe it's better to highlight the community part since using the projectname directly has the appearance of being official or endorsed.
