What is added or removed from cheap coffee that it makes me pee so much?

Question by Christ is Life: What is added or removed from cheap coffee that it makes me pee so much?
I grind my own beans and use a French press, so there’s more oil and higher quality; it doesn’t make me pee more than normal. However, any time I drink the Folgers at work, one cup makes me have to go two or three times. Is it the lack of oil from it being filtered or do they add cheap fillers that have something to do with it?

Answer by Richard Hoffman
Caffeine has two major effects on the human body. One, it acts as a stimulant, ramping up heart rate, dilating blood vessels, etc. Two, it acts as a diuretic, causing the kidneys to put more water into the urine than normal, filling the bladder faster. Folgers does this more so because of the amount of water in the blend. Cheaper the coffee the less oil in it to keep it from passing faster.

Cheap and Best Coffee Machines

Cheap does not necessarily mean inferior. If you are looking for cheap coffee machines, at least go for those that offer the features of pricier ones. With an array of models in the market, this is not that hard. With some research, you can get ones that cost as low as $25 to $100. The features are as great as the more expensive ones, if you just know how to look. Here are some factors to take into consideration before buying a coffee machine:

First is the maintenance. When maintenance is being talked about, the first issue to tackle is how easy your machine is to clean. If the drip though pipe is easy to clean, then the coffee maker is a good buy.

Next is the milk frothing. If you happen to be a fan of espressos, cappuccinos or lattes, then your coffee machine must be able to froth milk. Look into the product description to know if your machine comes with this feature.

The price may be the most important factor to some people. If you can get the features of a 250-dollar coffee machine from a 25-dollar one, then you might want to ditch the former. Go through a list of coffee machines and their prices on the internet. If possible, go over the user reviews and the manuals, so you get to know more coming from real users.

Another thing to take into consideration is space. The space it occupies should be factored in. If you will be using it for your home, then a tabletop system would be perfect.

There are many available coffee machines out there. That said, don’t settle for the first thing you come across. With just a little looking around, you might find one that will be perfect for your budget, and will last for years, and come with every feature you’re looking for.
