SLOOOWWW DOWN - get a regular coffee pot and some low caffeine , low acid (Dark roast) beans . Enjoy coffee as it was meant to be enjoyed. Brew your own and get into the whole Zen of the thing with beans, brew times, delivery , waters, etc. Savor it rather than devour it. You'll find out that the brew is the thing.
