Brew Up New Life Into Your Coffee Habit If you are addicted to a great cup of coffee, you are aware that making your own before leaving the house can save you a ton of money. It can be difficult, however, to achieve coffee-house quality. This article can help you make a great cup of coffee. If you have diabetes or want to lose weight, try Stevia instead of real sugar. Stevia is a sugar substitute made from plants. It can sweeten your coffee without the unnecessary sugar. It can be found in fine grocers and health food stores. Coffee is not necessarily an unhealthy drink. Coffee itself will not harm you; it is the vast amounts of sugar and cream that we dump in it that can harm you. Adding stevia or honey to your latte made with almond milk to remove the less savory (and less healthy) is one way to keep things healthy. If you want strong, rich flavor, buy a French press. The paper filters used in drip-style coffee makers absorb most of the oils that produce flavor in coffee. A French press moves the grounds to the carafe. This leaves the bean's oils within the coffee, giving it a rich flavor. Coffee can alleviate cabin fever for anyone working from home. This can be especially beneficial to self-employed people who generally spend most of their days alone. Many restaurants also now offer this option. Coffee comes in a wide variety of choices. Some like it dark and strong, and some like it light and mild. Flavored coffees are also available, with flavors that range from hazelnut to raspberry. Or, you can change the flavor through creamers and other additions. While placing things in the freezer gives them a pretty long shelf life, keep in mind that any coffee that is in your freezer should only be kept there for up to three months. Storing it in the freezer longer makes it lose its freshness and flavor. Make sure water you use clean, fresh water in your coffee making. The water will have an influence on the overall flavor of your beverage. Take a sip of your water choice before you choose to put it in the machine. Many home brewers find replicating the flavor found in cafes to be quite a challenge indeed. Instead
