Diabetics can use Stevia as a replacement sweetener for sugar. Stevia is low in calories and a natural product that does not raise glucose levels. Stevia can commonly be found in upscale grocery stores and stores that sell health food.

To make a good coffee, always start with fresh beans. They should look kind of oily, and they should be potent. Try to avoid very dry beans, any grocery store beans, and any beans that have been exposed to air for a long time. Your best bet is to either roast beans yourself or buy them from a local roaster.

It is a bad idea to let coffee sit on a hot burner after brewing. Keeping the heat on will cause your coffee to "cook," and will ruin its freshly-brewed flavor. Instead, unplug your coffee-maker or other appliance, or transfer the coffee to an insulated pot to keep it hot.

Buy a coffee grinder, and buy whole bean coffee. There is no substitute for the taste of freshly ground beans. If you can't afford a coffee grinder, you can still buy whole beans. Most supermarkets have grinders that you can use to grind your coffee purchase before you leave the store.

When you brew your coffee at home, do not throw out the used grounds. These coffee grounds might not be good for another cup of coffee, but they are excellent for many other purposes. They are great for composting, exfoliating, cleaning, and quite a few other uses. Don't throw them away!

Avoid storing your coffee in the freezer. The extreme temperatures of the freezer will destroy the oils in the coffee. Instead, drink what you have or buy smaller amounts of coffee. If you do not buy too much coffee, you will not need to worry about storing it for an extended period of time.

You must now see, after reading, that you have a lot more great choices than you may have ever thought of. At this point, you're probably itching for a hot cup right now. Keep this advice in mind the next time you want to change up your coffee. Enjoy your delicious cup of coffee!
