„But there was no explanation as to why men fared no better after their caffeine fix. He told the London Evening Standard: "The effect may not last for very long, but a quick double espresso probably would make the pain of something like leg-waxing more bearable. "We need a lot more research into the differences between the genders when it comes to pain. "It may be that painkillers need to be tailored differently to the sexes to ensure they are as effective as possible." Caffeine is already included as an ingredient in some painkilling tablets - but only in relatively small doses.“

„The Stove-top Espresso MakerUse fine ground coffeeEspresso is seriously strong coffee. It is normally drunk in tiny cups so that a single shot of espresso has no more caffeine than a mug of normal coffee. The name is Italian and means 'made under pressure' rather than 'quickly' as many people seem to think. For those who prefer the coffee slightly less strong, it can be diluted with boiling water, but it will always have a burnt taste.The simplest way to make espresso is with a stove-top espresso pot.“

„ What is remarkable about a properly made espresso is that the maximum flavor is extracted from ground coffee while much of the caffeine and excess acids are left behind. The high pressure at which extraction is done and the small volume of water passing through ground coffee account for this feat.“

„Red Eye Someone who can "drink" (ie:choke down) a red eye deserves your respect. This drink is basically a cup of coffee (already pretty darn caffeinated) with either one, two, or three espresso shots added for good measure. People that drink these either are clinically dead and need resurrection, or are writing a doctoral thesis or something. You may want to think twice before ordering this drink.“
