One of the best investments I've ever made was a good espresso machine and grinder (Rancilio Silvia and Rocky for those who know something). Espresso coffee tastes so much better than drip (I really hate French press so that's not even a comparison).
I find espresso also much more agreeable. While I feel jittery after several cups of drip I find I would need to drink a lot more (unrealistic amounts) espresso coffee for the same effect. It also helps that its not a type of coffee where one has a big pot of it sitting around and one can get constant refills.
Interestingly I don't get withdrawal symptoms (I often don't drink coffee when travelling as I rather not drink coffee than drink bad coffee). So I might not be too strongly affected by caffeine.

- can16358p 5y agoI'm already on no more than two espressos, yet I have it if I don't drink it.
