Hello

I give up drinking beer in December it slowly started to make me ill with my diabetes.

So I've become obsessed with coffee.

I can't afford a bean to coffee machine.

I've tried the pod machines and I like them for a bit then start tasting a tang I can't get rid of. Think it's the powdered milk.


So I've bought a cafeteria, mokka pot, v60 pour over.

I've tried rave coffee and I've had my mind blown. But it's dear at between £7 to £14 for 250grams of coffee.

I've tried from rave coffee.

Chinese coffee. Dongha lovely drinking now
Mexican coffee.
And there house blend chatwood. Proper chocolate notes.


I've never tasted coffee like it.

There is a coffee shop by me that sells coffee too. But open odd time. And always shut when I'm home from work.

But yes this is my new thing to be obsessed over ha 😂

Next purchases gonna be a goose neck kettle and scales that weigh how many grams per second is poured.

I'm landed though as my blood sugar levels have now returned to normal levels of a normal person and I can't wait for my diabetic review next week !!!

Think my review is in 3 weeks time.

Yes got my sugars down to 5-6mmol. Testing myself. Was riding between 7-10mmol for months.

Think drinking was making me struggle. I've drunk alot since I was around 15. I did have a bad spell for a few years were I drank every day for a while too.

So needed to stop. I have slowly been doing it over the year.. from ten cans a weekend, down to 4 or 5 to nothing.

It's been 36 days now no beer and no takeaways. I only had one takeaway a week. But yes decided to try and change it around

Got my 1 year review next week.

We got a sage barista pro at Xmas , so far a great buy , works out approx 30p a cup , from what I have tried so far I prefer the supermarket Coffee beans rather than the fresh ones . Google ‘coffee kev ‘ , he has a 15% discount code for sage machines.

Way out of my price range 😭

I got it for 550 , There’s cheaper similar machines , the sage bambino plus but then you need a grinder, bang that tenner you were spending on cans every week into a coffee jar and you can get one this time next year or if it’s like all my other coffee machines I will be flogging it in 3 months 😁

We got a bean to cup machine at work, got it off amazon warehouse for £160.00 about 2 years ago. I loved my coffee and use to laugh at people in the office when they were making weak ones. On getting a smart watch with heart rate i noticed my heart rate was very high. I gave up caffeine completely, a started drinking decafe tea. It took 7 days of headaches to get it out my system. I have now gone back to normal tea bags but only ever drink decaffe coffee now.

I quit coffee once cos I had bad guts , I had 3 days of severe headache , I am obviously back on coffee now but I don’t drink it routinely I have one when I want one and probs have a max of 2 a day.
