    I don't drink coffee (or tea) at all except when I'm on holiday. I always get a couple of days of headaches when I come back as my system gets used to no caffeine again.

    Are you a permie or contractor?

    Contractor Workplace = minimum filter coffee.
    Contractor Home = full blown Expresso maker.

    I have way too much coffee, although I steer clear of it after 4pm

    Typically I'll have 6-10 cups in a day, although at the moment it could be down to 5

    Do you get headaches at the weekend, if you don't get coffee soon enough?

    started a topic Caffeine?

    Caffeine?

    Is anyone else here addicted to caffeine?

    I can't get through the day without it! First thing I do when I get into work in the morning is brew up (instant coffee if I'm at work, filter coffee if I'm at home). Then again, late morning I have another brew. Then around mid-afteroon it's time for my third brew of the day. Finally, when I get home I usually make some filter coffee. Depending on how stressed or lacking in self discipline I am, I might brew up for the fifth time mid-evening. Is this excessive?

    I tend to think I really ought to limit myself to a maximum of three brews per day; morning, afternoon & evening. Two per day would be even better but I don't think I could get by like that.

    I don't smoke, and I've been teetotal since 1st Jan 2009 (that's another story!). However, caffeine seems to be the one vice I just can't kick!

    Interested to hear your views on this.

    Cheers.
