I've been going in the opposite direction. Last year I've bought an aeropress coffe device to improve my coffee at work. Last week I've started to use a manual grinder so I can use high quality whole beans. My morning and after lunch coffees are my personal rituals.

A chewable coffee looks completely detestable. :-)

I've tried the Go cubes. I wouldn't really think of them as a replacement for a nice cup of coffee. They're more "I need this caffeinated burst and I don't want to deal with going to a coffee shop or grinding/brewing/etc". More like a way to get effects of coffee or an energy drink without coffee.

It's sort of like how Soylent Coffiest is a coffee alternative with other things that reduce the downsides of coffee, but it's "meta coffee", not exactly coffee.

By the way, another alternative to preparing your own coffee by hand that's good is Sudden Coffee. It's an instant coffee that's like a freeze dried pour over.

If you can acquire Ferrero's Pocket Coffee in the US, I'd recommend it. One piece is a cup of espresso, and it's very tasty.

Only downside is that they melt easily. Can't really put it in your pocket.

Our GO CUBES chewable coffee is super popular ^_^ I personally still love a fine coffee/espresso, but what's nice about GO CUBES is they let you keep coffee in your pocket - take it anywhere, no stress no spills, etc. I end up popping a couple GO CUBES throughout the day, they are great to have around. And it's got precise 50mg caffeine + 100mg l-theanine + b vitamins, for better performance profile than normal coffee.

However today's news is much more exciting -- HVMN Ketone! It's a game changer for the sports performance world, and has v interesting implications beyond bc it affects metabolism in a fundamental way.
