Those Koreans are crazy! I like the music in the video. You can't go
wrong with a uke and xylophone in a cheery coffee commercial. That gizmo
ain't that handy because it doesn't have a water reservoir and a heater.

I'm gonna be ordering this stuff:

http://www.amazon.com/Heirloom-Coffe.../dp/B002RRLZQW

Hopefully, it's good stuff!

in my experience a one-cup drip doesn't work very well. But, in order
to get a consistent cup of Joe, wouldn't you have to weigh the beans.?

Cute gizmo, but way outside my price range.

This is how I make my daily cup of coffee:

http://www.amazon.com/Melitta-Ready-...itta+pour+over

Or:

http://tinyurl.com/qfc2x7o

The price & convenience are great and it makes a wonderful cup of
coffee. Since I'm limited to one cup a day i want it to be the best i
can get. This does it.

I haven't tried the Melitta one-cup, I didn't know they made one..
Does it filter in a timely fashion? The ones I have had were very
slow and usually plugged with coffee grounds.

They are used in fancy coffee shops that brew individual cups of
coffee to order.

That explains it -- I haven't been in a fancy coffee shop. I think
the only ones we have around here (other than the usual drive-by) are
the kind where all kinds of people schlep in and sit and talk or read.
Sandals, shorts, jeans are all appropriate.

That's what my wife used when she lived by herself. Set the filter
on a mug, add the grounds. Boil the water,and pour it through.

If one buys decent coffee, and uses a decent drip method of any kind,
one gets a decent beverage. We just use a Mr. Coffe because we drink
a lot per day. Otherwise, I'd probably use a Melitta type and tea
kettle.

What's really different from the cup top device the French have used for

Put the cup in the microwave with water first, or get it hot with teapot
water. I do that for my wife. I don't like beverages (or even soup)

What about braless... might have to try those fancy java joints.

For the best cuppa, nothing, but NOTHING brews better:

Naturally coffee is ALL about the water.

I have a Bialetti for just me but a few years ago I bought an 8 cup
Farberware stovetop percolator to use during power outages... makes
wonderful coffee, better than any ADC... I'd use it every day only
it's a PIA to clean. It's a very nice looking pot too:

I have my mom's old percs packed away, but they're aluminum

The drip time kind of depends on the filter used. I generally use HyVee
brand (a huge grocery store chain in the Midwest). The drip time is
quite fast. I've not had the grounds plug up the filter, but I use it
only once.

Just a good cup of hot coffee done quickly. Also, Melitta products are
made in the USA. That's becoming more and more important to me.

The truth about Trung Nguyen coffee is that it's flavored coffee. I
always thought they somehow processed the coffee in a new way to make a
smooth Kona style coffee. This might be true, they make an
enzyme-treated coffee so god knows what the heck they're doing to their
beans over there. The coffee they sell through the US distributors is
not the same as the stuff being sold in VN. OTOH, they pretty much have
to spill the beans on the ingredients of US coffee - the previous can I
got a short time ago was a butter and chocolate flavored coffee but what
I want is like the stuff I got a decade ago. Wonderful, amazing, coffee!

I don't think it matters all the much if I find it or not. Just
remembering it is a pleasure. That's the important part. :-)

I always thought those European moka pots were pretty exotic. Wouldn't
the brew be pretty strong? You're using a high coffee to water ratio -
or are you?

Not particularly. Have you tried Kenyan coffee? It is pretty mild to start
with. I couldn't drink all those very strong coffees that people here
describe.

I'll make it a point to pick up some Kenyan. Thanks!

French press coffee does make LDL cholesterol go up a bit. You can buy a Thermos Nissan 8 cup stainless steel insulated french press for as little as $32. Or you coulkd buy an 8 cup Bodum glass Brazil 1 and insulate it with cork which would look nice.

Do you not usually drink very strong stuff? I hope you are not too
disappointed.

What is Kona style? IMO, it is either Kona or a fake. It is a coffee of
specific origin.

I used to use one of those but after friends demonstrated this:
http://www.cuisinart.com/products/co...dgb-900bc.html
I bought one. When I'm working, it's ideal as the flask is double wall
vacuum and keeps the coffee hot all day.
Suits me!
