Caffeluxe - two-week challenge
I was lucky enough to be given a Caffeluxe coffee machine, with capsules included and a recipe book. (Apparently you can cook with coffee, who knew?) Basically, the challenge was to try the coffee variants, experiment with them and get some interesting new flavours going. I will have to admit that a lot of my flavour interaction involved liqueur or honey and my cooking went as far as burning coffee-flavoured muffins that I tried to construct.

Caffeine buzz within minutes
However, I will say this - I had always imagined a coffee machine to be a mission to get a really nice cup of Joe, but I was clearly mistaken. With a push of a button I could have my caffeine buzz within minutes. The variants are sourced from Colombia, Peru, Ethiopia, Rwanda and Kenya, and the capsules are recyclable. So, for two weeks I got to wake up, go on a little coffee adventure and then be good to the planet, which is most definitely a good way to start the day if ever there was one.
Unfortunately after two weeks I had to give up my new morning friend and go back to instant nonsense. Luckily for me, and anyone else who doesn't have R5000 for a coffee machine but loves the convenience, a Caffeluxe machine is between R699 and R1299 and can be found online as well as in many retailers.
I can safely say after two weeks with Caffeluxe, I now need my "daily fix".
