Oh yes! I got a bean to cup coffee machine about a couple of months ago and I love it. No noticeable change to my BG levels, but I do always drink it "straight", ie black and no sugar. I suppose I get through about 1/1/2 bags of beans a week. One of life's little pleasures. I do hope that no one else comes back with reasons against.

I drink it, with a dash of skimmed milk. Doesn't raise my BS when I test.
Finding something I could drink was the hardest thing for me, so I probably drink too much coffee nowadays!

being a diabetic and finding restrictions.to life style. people who do not understand the problems one has. not being able to afford to come back to uk for holidays as often, quite expensive. miss some foods that the French do not do. but can live with that French drivers. who love to tail gate. and they love to drive over the white line. in rural areas they are a pain. but get use to it. does put the wind up you. But driving in the UK found that drivers want to get as close as they can. and the traffic. it took me 25 minutes to get to friends house which was less then a mile away. due to traffic.

My machine is a DeLonghi Magnifica, amazing double expressos at the touch of a button. I used to have a cafetiere about once a fortnight, but now I have a couple of cups every night, and more at weekends! I wouldn't be without it now.

Unless you have problems with caffeine, or put sugar in the coffee, just enjoy! :happy:
