Do you stop your caffein intake at a certain time of day. I try not to have coffee any later than 5pm.

I've usually had enough around 11:00 am or 11:30 am at the latest. This keeps me going until lunch time. I will sometimes have a cup after lunch but not very often. The only time I have a cup after 5 pm is if we go out for a leisure dinner. Sometimes a cup of coffee is the best dessert!

I agree with you about coffee being dessert. There is someting about the warmth and the aroma after a wonderful dinner.

I can drink it all day long and late into the night. The caffeine doesn't bother me. There are times when I get heartburn from certain blends so those are the ones that I avoid or limit to only a few cups a day.

Wow, Ive met a few people like you who can drink coffee later in the night, but you are definitely a rare kind. I get the heartburn too sometimes if Ive had too much. Take it easy!

in my case, i try not to drink coffee in the evenings. i've tried this a couple of times, and the end result is that i don't get to sleep, even if i want to. i think coffee only works well (for me) when taken in the morning. to perk me up and start my day. =D

i have 1 (large) cup every morning. sometimes i'll get a second cup, but not very often. if for some reason i'm not able to have a cup first thing in the morning, i'll drink it as late as 6pm, but i try not to drink coffee later than that.

I cannot start my day without at least 3 cups of a good fresh brewed coffee.The fourth cup starts to taste flat so I never finish a fourth cup. Instant coffee makes me gag. If I had a choice I would go without coffee if Instant was offered. I prefer cold/iced drinks than hot drinks like coffee. But since I not really a coffee drink, I'd rather tea to get me warmed up.
