Coffee

update bros:  just started liter number 4

it's very tough actually but, where there's a will, there's a way

How do you find time to post between all your trips to the pisser?

On sixth cup of coffee today.  Probably won't brew any when I get home.  Maybe, but probably not.

If you tell your doctor about how much coffee you drink, and he says, "Uh, we'll put between 3-5 cups a day" in your chart to make him look like he's not negligent, does that mean you drink too much?

stevesie (or anyone), what's a good espresso maker quality/value combo?

[steve dave]

it would have to make lattes so I think it would need that milk steamer thing

[Saulbadguy]

Not a fan of Coffee.  Maybe I haven't had one I liked.  I generally drink Diet Rite.  No caffeine.  

I do like coffee flavored things, like coffee ice cream.

hey, what a weird post. I love coffee now.

Can you get a good one for $100?  Will probably just have mrs. dave continue going to Carribou every day if not.

Probably not. The thing about espresso machines is that they need repaired constantly. With in-home espresso machines, no one would be able to do that. It would work fine for a while, but I'd give it 4 months before you'd have to buy a new one.

While not truly espresso, moka style isn't a bad alternative.  Usually have some (or french pressed) with steamed/frothed milk at home every morning.  Bold rich flavors, you guys.  Check this out. http://www.amazon.com/Bialetti-Cappuccino-and-Latte-Set/dp/B0000D154I/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1317304824&sr=8-7

Is she drinking actual/traditional esspresso, or just using it to mix into something like a iced mocha carmel vanilla skinny soy latte?  If the latter, just get a cheap one and use a good esspresso bean and by the time she mixes in all the other crap, the diff will not be noticeable.

my bro in law uses something like this, says it's the best he's ever had and likes to travel with it.  He's kind of a hipster that went to film school in Chicago so I assume he knows what he's talking about.

excellent post, dadboner.

stevesie.  Can I count on you for a hot espresso in the dainty dine-in cup with a side of cabarnet at 6:30 sharp?

Assuming that's 6:30am, yes.

So relieved the subtlety didn't get missed...nothing worse than a joke going unappreciated.  Steve, you probably need to order a stovetop Bialetti stat...will make a great latte with microwaved milk.

Meant Steve Dave...didn't expect a barista to bite.  We don't all have steam to heat our leche.

Don't waste the cash. I tried to keep Mrs. SF away from her daily $5 latte at Bucks and it didn't work. She says they don't taste the same.   I mean, it is coffee and milk.
