Coffee Machine?

[Hamilton Saint]

Three main choices, I suppose:

 

1) drip (the water is poured, or delivered, over the coffee grounds in a paper or metal filter - this is the method we use at home);

 

2) percolator (delivers a 'thicker', richer coffee - a friend of mine is still using the percolator his parents acquired in the 1960s, it makes a great cup of coffee);

 

3) French press (which my friend in Somerset uses - tasty).

 

The drip filter method is the quickest to prepare and easiest to clean up, I think. But probably does not deliver the best tasting coffee.

Has anyone ever tried one of these:

Thought it might be an idea for the office or out on site?

 

Aerobie AeroPress is very good. I use them all the time. Makes a perfect coffee in twenty seconds and is very easy to clean. It needs filters too. Check out on amazon.

I would recommend to anyone who loves a quick cup of perfect coffee.

Thanks Rorski. For twenty quid it seems a good deal in the absence of the machine at home.

Coffee drinking c*nts. You can't beat a nice cup of tea.

Tea drinking wimps. Bet you stick yer little fingers out when you're sippin'...

Coffee is the devil's brew in the same way that mushrooms are the food of the devil.

Tea is juuust too effeminate, what with all that pot-warming and dainty floral china cups and semi-erect pinkies.

 

Coffee is a real man's drink, served in a mug or chunky cup and made with lots of hard sweaty work, noise and expensive machines. And it takes a real man to imbibe a drink made from a product that has first passed through the digestive tract of a wild cat.

 

Agree about the mushrooms though...

Rubbish. You pansies always worrying about whether to have a Latte or a Mocha or whatever. You can't even dunk a chocolate digestive like you can in tea.

 

I'll say it again, coffee-drinking c*nts. Real man's drink my eye. Walk round a dockers mess room and see how many of them are drinking coffee. Tea is a mans drink, coffee is for metrosexuals who walk round with 'man-bags'.

[Pugwash]

Crap. Tea drinking ***ts. Coffee was made for dunking biscuits.

 

I've now got a vision of a bunch of poncy dock shirkers dangling little bags of leaves by a string over their steaming bone china cups. Or do they slurp the tea from the saucer?
