Hi, I bought a nice espresso machine which was around 0 (early X-mas present). Anyways, while it is on its plane ride to my house, i’m buying my accessories. I have espresso cups (2oz) cappacino cups (6 oz) and latte cups (8oz). I have a milk pitcher, thermometer, and espresso shot cups. So I think I have all the proper equipment to make an awesome coffee. I have only one problem tho , the espresso beans. I don’t have enough money to buy a nice coffee grinder. I don’t like to cut corners on cheap stuff, so I’ll wait to have at least enough money to buy a nice grinder. My question is, should I buy pods to use for my espresso, or ground espresso beans at a coffee shop and use the ground beans for a couple weeks. I know that it is best to grind the beans just before your about to make the espresso, but that isn’t an option at the moment.Thanks!

Thruway to give out free coffee and tea

How many hours does the energy boost last, for a person who isn’t sensitive to caffeine and the caffeine is from a cup of tea?

I know Starbucks uses their own Cinnamon Dulce syrup, but I they won’t sell it to me. Does anyone know of a similar recipe?

I was reading online about the "ghetto latte"- An iced americano with no water and milk.

My question is: do you baristas get offended when a customer orders a ghetto latte or no?

And how much is an overdose of caffeine?

Would extreme amounts of caffeine make you hyper or would there come a point where you became ill or what?

If I go to McDonalds and ask for the vanilla sugar free iced latte will they make it wilh non fat or skim milk if I ask?
Do they usually make it with regular milk?

I got home today, and I had a headache, so I took an Excedrin. But instead of drinking water with it, I drank sweetened ice tea. Could the caffeine in the excedrin and the ice tea be enough to cause me to feel dizzy? Because it was about half an hour after, while talking to my grandmother, that I randomly started to feel dizzy.

i am doing a chemistry essay talking about the dissolving process, solutes, solvents, etc and how they relate to making a chai tea latte (example:how mixing in sugar relates to the dissolving process) and Im no sure wether to classify chai tea as a solution (the solute is evenly distributed within the solvent) or just as a mixture. any help is appreciated
