Serious Delirium - the coffee thread
Adam Lincoln:
Time to buy a Gaggia classic. The bullet needs to be bitten!
Richie Crouch:
Good thread Andi!
I was wondering Tommy, if I order whole bean on the drop down menu - I'm assuming its roasted and ready to grind as I only have a grinder and not my own roasting machine!
Always keen to try some new coffee at home and drink the cheaper stuff in work in the cafetiere :)
Clart:
I can second the aeropress, looks a bit like a penis pump so avoid getting them mixed up.
My main weapon of choice is the stove espresso maker. Cheap, and as Fultonius said, ideal for camping.
With a cafetiere, make sure you put a bit of cold water on the coffee before adding the boiling water to prevent a bitter taste.
slackline:
You're all mad, caffeine is a nasty drug. I'd rather a good dose of acid any day, look what it does to spiders in comparison to other "drugs"....
Normal
LSD
Mescaline/Peyote
Marijuana
Speed
Sleeping Pills
...and the one you're all craving for Caffeine
P.S. - I don't drink tea or coffee (but have dabbled with drugs a bit).

You may have just solved my problem of what to spend the £30 John Lewis voucher I have left from Christmas! We drink the preground Illy stuff in a stove top, does grinding your own really make that much difference?
