    Switching to tea from coffee

    So, in the middle of switching from coffee to tea. I dunno, guess I'm just enjoying the entire process of making tea much more enjoyable than coffee.

    Also, there's a whole lot of variety in tea. Even non-teas, like tisane I'm finding enjoyable to source materials for it, making it, and of course drinking it.

    I think the lower caffeine content is also doing me good too.

    So, do you prefer tea, or coffee? Or, both?

    Just bought a brand new French press. I'm a coffee man all the way.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    This sounds strangely familiar.

    Tea. Coffee is good after the evening brandy or whisky, it seems appropriate.

    Coffee from age 15 to 19. It's been tea ever since.

    I've got one too, and a percolator... Maybe I just got burned out with coffee, as I've gotten pretty good at making it. I never thought there was "good coffee" other than not being burnt, but learned a lot, especially with temperature and proper extraction.

    I do like tea sometimes, especially a good Chinese green tea at a restaurant.

    But I really like good coffee. Been grinding beans and French Pressing since the early 80's.
    That's when I found out how good coffee could really be.

    Before that I got my caffeine from Dr. Pepper. Even in the morning.
