Yes, you'll enjoy, I'm certain. Treating it like an ally, taking time to savor it, following these simple brewing guidelines, and having a fellow conversationalist or some cleaning chores on hand will make for a spectacular cup!

Good luck fractal!
Coffee is a great ally to have when the house needs cleaning... so I think I'll go brew some right meow.

So–
I am having a month break from coffee as an experiment I thought up whilst chatting to my gf. She is certain that it affects my sleep, I am not so sure.
Whilst I drink quite a lot of coffee my sleep problems have existed for as long as I have been alive (I have only been drinking coffee heavily since 16 or so) and have been problematic since I started secondary school.
So I am taking month off to see the effects, so far (3 days in) I am fancying going to sleep from 1 and 3am, as opposed to my usual 4–6am. My main issue – the fact that I can’t stop thinking when I turn the lights off – usually 1–2 hours before managing to sleep is still the same though.
As for my current dose, the day before I began coffee abstinence I drank either 5 or 6 cups of strong (large heaped teaspoon) instant coffee by 1pm. I am interested by the fact that many people seem to have terrible withdrawal effects from caffeine. So far I have noticed nothing except fancying having a coffee, in which case just drinking a cup of redbush has done the job.
Will see how the experiments goes…
