Coffee Fiend And Water Intake

Members Were Sparked

I am a total coffee fiend, so in order to get the right amount of water, I drink at least two glasses of water before I have another cup of coffee. It seems to work!

I am a tea fiend and this is a great idea. I always seem to end up drinking 3-4 glasses at time... just 2 glasses before my tea and I could have eight glasses in by mid afternoon.

I, too, am a coffee fiend. I have one cup of coffee in the morning, then take 3 one liter bottles of water to work with me. (12 cups!) After I drink all the water, I can have as much coffee as I want! Somehow, I always end up having one cup of coffee a day....

Keep Coffee Tasting Like .....Coffee

Over time, your coffee-maker will build up a "plaque" of calcium and other minerals & gradually build up a mineral deposit that cuts off the flow of water - just like heart disease.

Make your coffee pot last up to four times longer and keep that real coffee taste. Once every 6-8 weeks add a half cup of vinegar to the water and let it cycle through.

Simply rinse with another cycle of plain water and your coffee will continue to taste great and won't get "hardening of it's arteries".
