So I was on vacation in Colorado. I decided to have ten shots of espresso. Didn’t go down well… I had trouble breathing and I’m from Dallas so the elevation change had already affected that, and my heart was beating insanely fast. I drank the ten shots in
One sitting around 8pm and didn’t
Sleep until about 11 am the next day. Well like I said
I got pretty sick from all that espresso so I decided to wash it put
With water. Well 9 water bottles and I ended up with water poising. I wad passing out vomiting and peeing all night. That just shows you how you CAN have too much of anything. I am fine now but to this day I get an uneasy stomach when I think
Of that night…

We would always try and top each other in espresso consumption at the coffee shop I worked at. About 20 shots fit in a large cup, and we drank that a few times. DELICIOUS! I wouldn’t suggest someone who doesn’t normally consume large amounts of caffeine try it though.

Seriously…enough about stupidity….support your local small coffee sPOTS. The coffee is much better and usually the prices are more reasonable.

Once I asked a drunken man to make me coffee, he ended up making me espresso coffee. (somehow he didn’t know the difference from the espresso maker and the coffee maker)
The coffee-zilla he made me without my knowledge was = to 16 shots of espresso which I consumed in half an hour. Ahh the sleepless nights…

I’ve been know to start my day off with 3 double espressos in one cup. Got some jitters if I drank it instead of sipping it. I have my own espresso machine and roast my own coffee. Even McDonalds has better coffee than Charbucks. I can’t believe any one drinks that vile over roasted pretentious filth. What a bunch of fashion whores. Do a search on squirrely wrath. BTW they have no baristas in Starschmucks they went to superauto machines to remove the human factor from their swill. Yes go support your local roaster.

I’ve been in the business for over 10yrs and I used to drink on average 10 singles over an 8 hr period. As long as you flush it with a lot of water you’ll be just fine. Of course, everything in moderation right?
As for all you coffee lovers out there…leave all those commercial cafes for the sheep and support one of your local (small) coffee shops. Chances are they have a much better quality coffee than that crap they serve at Starbucks! They don’t know their ass from their elbow when it comes to roasting.

Not so bad, i’ve done a 16-shot all at once, and yeah I probably had the worse crash of my life but it’s not like it messed me up.
