I'm the hooker's pimp, they give me the money you give them, then I pay old ladies to sit in their Caddies idling for 20 minutes while waiting in line at Starbucks to bring me the perfect Frappichinowhateveritis.

There are things that one buys that turn out to be well worth the dinero because one uses them everyday. This has been the case with my Salvatore Espresso Maker and Mini Mazzer coffee grinder. The Salvatore is a on commission hand built Espresso maker that in made in Solvang, CA. Upon opening the back of the thing I found my name written inside. All components are commercial grade quality and all piping is copper or brass. There is a single piece of plastic tubing from the water resovior to the pump and that is so the pump can be primed if necessary. I would say it is an outstanding machine. They are not cheap, prices start around $1800 now

Try a dash (or two) of cinnamon. Adds a nice flavor to any blend.

I'm amazed at the machinery shown here for making some java. I've never drank pressed, espresso'd, latte'd, or whatevered.

My wife is the big coffee drinker, but I'm up earlier, so I make ours. I can take it or leave it.

My morning is coffee prep is pretty simple - no fuss. Got a free pot/carafe/coffee for one day subscription to Gevalia. Found their coffee to be way overpriced for it's quality. My wife's favorite coffee comes delivered once a month from Amazon.

pour beans - grind - drip - drink

The best coffee that I make is using 100% Arabica Ground Coffee. I preffer the coffee that came from Puerto Rico. Just make 10 oz of boiling water in a pot. When the water is boiling add 5 tablespoon of ground coffee. Boil again for 3 minutes. Then filter the hot water with coffee using a cheese cloth or something similar (maybe a clean cotton sock) into the cup, add sugar if you like and enjoy. You will taste a rich, bold and tasteful black coffee. Another option if you don't like black coffee, just heat milk to the point of boil. Then mix in equal parts milk and coffee (you can use 75% black coffee and 25% milk). Use the sugar of your preference. I like brown cane sugar or honey in the black coffee and white cane sugar on the coffee with milk.

If I'm late to the work, I use the expresso machine. So to avoid that, I wake up early.

when I go to Hawaii I always come back w/ a duffle bag full of 100% kona. it is in itself a good reason to visit

I have fairly recently discovered some very nice coffee in the vons. Kauai Coffee coconut caramel crunch...almost like desert it is so tasty!! I just love how the aroma fills the kitchen. a great find for me!

Thanks.

That was him, I think he was banned for a short time, for what I cannot remember, but left on his own will in the end. He was a funny dude. Lots of quotes like this one.

Not that expensive to order it.

Kona Coffee from Greenwell Kona Coffee Farms, Hawaii

If you order in 5 lb bags, the price is decent for pure Kona. And shipping in't that bad either.
