Good call - I have a food processor thingy - lets see if that can grind coffee. You may have saved my life!

Shop? what spend money? and it means going up and down the stairs! can't be done caffeine free.

It worked ta Drac - dunno why I didn't think of it. Brains switched off due to low caffeine levels I guess.

Yup it will. My grinder is pretty much a mini blender.

Considering caffeine is such a powerful drug TJ, it might be a good idea. ❓

I do like my coffee though.

No coffee no tea no red bull? I'll turn into Rip Van Winkle!

In all seriousness its maybe worth a try - my coffee intake varies greatly and I do suspect a correlation between fatigue days and earlier caffeine consumption

Pop a bean under an elastoplast on the wrist.
Slow release.
