Switch to Decaf?!

[@sherried79]

Scott, get your butt to the doc! I have atrial flutter myself. It laid dormant until my ulcers got too bad because they were misdiagnosed. It's not normal to have a flutter. I was 50 when mine was discovered. Okay, mother hen signing off now. Hehe happy trails!

Het Scott, My sissypoo started getting those heart flutters a few years ago. She switched to drinking only decaffeinated and the problem went away.

The Mexico decaf they have is my all time favorite decaf, it’s a mountain wash process and it’s heavenly!

Oh, I haven't tried the Mexican decaf. Hopefully it will be in season next time I'm back in Humboldt

[@Jm-ne2rw]

Thanks for letting us hear the frogs 🐸 ❤ great video as ever, really enjoyed it x

[@cynthiataylor2092]

Be careful with decaffeinated coffee. The reason is for the following: In Europe, coffee is decaffeinated with steam but in the U.S. corporations decaffeinated coffee with chemicals that are toxic. This also includes decaffeinated tea. B12 is what you need to put back into your body because coffee removes B12 from your body.

[@StaticCamperVan]

Maybe you missed the part where I spoke about the issue with decaf

[@robertbongiorno4400]

Scott, I have sleeping issues so I started making a 50/50 mix a couple years ago. Even if half the flavor is lost in the decaf process, you'll still get 75% flavor with the mix.

Hello again! Really enjoyed this video. I've been able to sample Fogline coffee once or twice when they had a booth at an event. It IS very good. 😊 I wish I could support them, but it will have to be one of those things I get as a gift. I hope it makes a difference with the fluttering. Not a fun feeling. 😕 Also, I love the sound of the frogs. Sometimes on certain evenings I can here them from my house as we live near a gulch. I've heard them when I've gone to Costco in the evening too. There are so many good places for frogs around here.🐸

I quit coffee for several years. Getting up in the morning realizing I no longer had coffee to look forward to…. was more than I could take. I’m drinking again but I go out of my way to rehydrate. The coffee dehydrates me really easy.

I love your coffee centered videos. Being a picky about coffee myself I’ve a brand of coffee from a specialist supplier that I like very much and stayed with that for the past six years. They had to change the brand name once due to European regulations but the intent stayed the same. Anyway, greetings from a wet and very windy the Netherlands. I’ve been camping out for the past week my small van, similar to yours. Had to stay inside most of the time, catching up on a lot of reading and sleep. Thanks for sharing your (coffee) life.

[@greeneyedggirl]

Between stomach and sleep issues I spent a bunch of years fully decaf, and now I've started limiting my caffeine to before noon. After noon, I've recently started drinking Mushroom coffee for stomach health. It's not fully decaf, but it's much lower in caffeine than full strength coffee. So good for my stomach/digestive health and amazingly tastes really good! And I can drink it before bed and not have issues! It's kinda nice not having my stomach being a walking dumpster fire of discontent all the time!

[@rudfil]

So cool that you found a boutique decaf!! ... You're making me feel more adventurous. ...

I agree with you, same here, coffee is my one treat. I also have the heart flutter because of caffeine, so I now drink decaf. In Florida we have fewer local coffee roasters. I found a decaf I like on Amazon, Fresh Roasted coffee LLC. It's a Swiss eater decaf, light-medium roast. I use a little more beans per cup to enhance the flavor, not bad. Also, heavy cream is much better than half & half. 😊

I tried to switch to decalf. Never found one that didn't feel like it would rip up my stomach. My solution is one maybe 2 mugs in the AM and good bottle water later. If I want late coffee? First a mug of water, then if I still want it I have a coffee. All the best to you.

I still can not drink real coffee before bed and go to sleep.

She had decades of tolerance.

I have filter coffee first thing in the morning then for the rest of the day I have filter decaffeinated coffee. Caffeine will undermine your quality of sleep. You might think you are sleeping well but in fact the time spent in deep sleep is reduced with caffeine. So it is good to enjoy caffeinated coffee in the morning but not later than that. The removal of caffeine is a very simple process and so you can have extremely good quality decaffeinated coffee.

[@StaticCamperVan]

There are a lot of us that aren’t affected by caffeine. Everyone is different

Caffeine can make me have heart palpitations too. Decided to go with half-caf because decaf just didn’t have the taste and I wanted a bit of the caffeine stimulation. Bella Rosa Coffee in Sonoma County makes a great half-caf but you can make your own by mixing half decaf and regular together just make sure they are of a similar coffee type and roast. Hope this helps.
