I do use cream and real sugar, only 2 packets though, any thoughts, comments or suggestions. I am trying to get some information, other than all the great stuff already posted, and yes I have checked it out, on caffeine and the effects on the body, particularly the kidneys. Any info would be great. Thanks. newbreed "Work Hard, Play Hard, TRAIN HARDER"

But if fresh ground coffee from the beans is any comparison to fresh ground pepper, or fresh chopped spices.. then I can understand your enthusiasm dfly!
