I have never found any coffee that you make in a coffee pot or keurig that was not gluten-free.  

And Mt Dew is gluten-free.  ?

Plain Coffee is gluten free.  So, no worries.  But be careful with Instant coffees that may not be gluten free.  

Make it a date and head over to a big box store.  Cheap coffee makers work just as well as fancy ones.  If you are into being green, avoid a Keurig machine.  It is kind of expensive, but might be worth it keeping coffee fresher if you both do not drink it.  Or look into a pour over or French press system.  Very green.  I use a Melitta pour over coffee system because I like to avoid plastic.  But that is just my personal preference.  It also impresses my daughter’s boyfriend as he is a coffee snob.  ?

I take it that you are trying to give up a sugary soda habit.  Good for you!  I did not start drinking coffee until I was 40.  Now I am addicted.  ?

I use Christopher Bean Flavored Coffees myself...I talked to one of their reps who had celiac in the family and I even was testing a few of theirs out of paranoia years ago and it was all safe.
I have found issues with some flavored coffee, and bulk bin coffee. I messaged several companies years ago and many told me not to drink their coffee...The major brands plain coffee should be fine though but do avoid any instant ones.

As for a coffee makers I would suggest a cheap pour over....unless your like me...in which case you can get a Newco IA-TD But I had to run water lines to it and install filters...But I love having boiling hot water on demand from the tap for tea etc.

You will find many to be labeled gluten free...used to see it on the delight ones.
I personally just use Almond, Cashew (rich and creamy) or coconut milk for creamers as dairy can be a issue for some celiacs...I think almond breeze even released a extra thick and rich coffee creamer.

A lot of it says gluten-free on it - international delight, and nestles?  Does he want a flavored creamer?  Maybe just milk or half and half and sugar ?

You sound like you need to take a breath!  

They don’t add gluten to make it 20ppm.  Coffee and creamer are usually just naturally gluten-free.  I use International Delight and have never had issues.

My hubby uses Coffee Mate.  It states gluten free on  the label. Sometimes I get him the almond-based one.  I prefer half and half.  But I confess, I had International Delight this summer. My cousin loves the chocolate one.  She is gluten free too.  But it is too sweet for more than a once in a while treat if you have diabetes like me.  

I get the anxiety of getting glutened.  I can tell you that it improves with time.  

I used to buy croissants from Costco for my daughter’s lunch. I put the in zip-lock bags and froze them.  I touched them all the time and carefully washed my hands.  I made sure not to let crumbs get on the counter.  Same with a frozen burrito. I placed in on parchment paper, sealed the paper and microwaved the burrito.  (She is in a dorm now.....)

Just touching gluten is not going to make you sick.  Just take precautions.  

When my kid came home from anywhere, she washed her hands.  We all do because of germs (besides gluten).    Just have your boyfriend brush his teeth and wash his hands before he comes into your home.   He is not covered in gluten unless works in a bakery, pizza joint, restaurant or is a wheat, rye or barley farmer.  I think you get my point.  

Relax!

I need flavor also, I normally wait for a sell then buy a dozen or so of these. I have given reviews on a good amount of them, some are dead on others lack in strength. Just sweeten and add creamer and they are glorious...and yes they are gluten-free been drinking them for years.

      New onset constant gas

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      First, I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this—constant bloating and gas can be incredibly frustrating, especially when you’ve been so diligent with your gluten-free diet. Since nothing obvious has changed in your routine, a few possibilities come to mind: 1) Cross-contamination or hidden gluten (have you introduced new brands, eaten out more, or tried processed GF foods with questionable ingredients?), 2) New food intolerances (dairy, FODMAPs, or even GF grains like corn/rice can sometimes cause issues over time), 3) Gut dysbiosis (an imbalance in gut bacteria, possibly triggered by stress, antibiotics, or diet shifts), or 4) Non-celiac triggers (like SIBO or fructose...

      Gluten free and oat free bars not sugary?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Finding gluten-free and oat-free bars that aren’t overly sugary can be tricky, but there are some great options out there! For your little adventurers, consider GoMacro Kids bars (many are GF/oat-free and lower in sugar), 88 Acres Seed Bars (sweetened lightly with fruit), or The Good Crisp Company’s protein bars (grain-free and not too sweet). For homemade ideas, try simple nut/seed bars with dates, almond butter, and chia—no baking needed! Packaged snacks like Chomps meat sticks, Simple Mills almond flour crackers, or seaweed snacks also work well for hikes. If they like savory, roasted chickpeas or lupini beans are protein-packed and easy to carry. Hope this helps—happy trails!

      Symptom treatment of gluten exposure with Anti-inflammatories

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Using anti-inflammatories for symptom management after inadvertent gluten exposure can be a helpful short-term strategy, particularly for reducing discomfort like inflammation, pain, or swelling. However, it shouldn’t replace strict adherence to a gluten-free diet as the primary treatment for conditions like celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. While NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen) or natural anti-inflammatories (e.g., turmeric) may provide relief, they don’t address the underlying immune response or intestinal damage caused by gluten. Additionally, long-term or frequent use of NSAIDs carries risks, such as gastrointestinal irritation. It’s best to consult a healthcare provider to tailor an...

      Confused about my results

      By Russ H · Posted

      There is a predictive model for children on this link. Depends on sex, HLA genes and number of affected close relatives.  The model only goes up to age 12 so it would be interesting to know what the lifetime risk is. https://hputter.shinyapps.io/preventcd/
