I don't water it down loads, just a little, I'm not drinking 20 cups worth of espresso a day (I hope)

well when you say Bialetti I assume you mean one of these yokes?

Moka pot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"Moka pots are sometimes referred to as stove-top espresso makers and produce coffee with an extraction ratio similar to (but somewhat higher than) that of a conventional espresso machine"

so, eh....

I will have to investigate further.

You could recommend it to the rest of us.

I had assumed that buying beans would be cheaper than buying ground coffee since you have to grind it yourself but that seems not to be the case. I got a grinder at Christmas and bought a bag of beans for just under €10 and it ran out a few days later. I haven't seen any for sale in Carrickmacross.

It's probably for the worst

I'm at a client site and there is a Keurig machine with about 14 different types of coffee

Every afternoon someone does a coffee run to Dunkin. Everyone except me gets one.

someone (possibly @dudley or @Shaney ?) posted some tips for using an espresso pot a few weeks ago (don't clean it with soap and don't boil all of the water through were two points) but i can't find it...anyone remember where it was?

Wasn't me. I found a bottle of this bizarre looking stuff in the mothers kitchen at the weekend

I haven't tried it yet

My granny always had this in the house. I used to think it was really, really old but I think they just never updated the packaging.

i have some Camp in the press for making coffee cake, my granny used to have Irel for the same purpose

 

[therealjohnny]

We used to add it to hot water as a substitute for coffee. One of many aspects of staying in my granny's house that made me think the war was still on. I bet it was disgusting but thankfully I have no memory of it.

 

[nooleen]

i tried making a drink of it once, it was nasty

i'm not sure it's even fit for flavouring cake, with our sophisticated modern tastes

What about Bulletproof Coffee?

Where you whisk in a stick of butter?

Saw an ad for that.
