Got a Hat Trick (3 ristretto shots alone) and it was powerful stuff, probably the most concentrated coffee I've had to date. Bonus, it came with a teeny cup.

Ever tried Turkish coffee? It is some of the strongest stuff on earth. It is thick it is so strong. Almost the consistency of natural syrup,,
Give it a try, you may love it.
All the best,,,

I have yet to try it, I'm rather the coffee wuss. I'm trying to get over it, but Turkish coffee is too daunting at the moment.
 
I deliver mail to a Bosnian place that serves coffee. It is some sort of espresso that looks almost like hot chocolate. It's pretty thick. I know he uses Lavazza beans.

Have you tried it? I'm curious what you think of it.
 
Gave the Turkish a try with some sugar and cardamom.
I don't think I ground the coffee fine enough though, not a lot of foam, but very tasty.

Big coffee junkie, though the acid has a history of messing with my family's stomachs.
Trying this "low acid" coffee out once it arrives.

Pre-season livingroom maintenance.
I sit here on the couch staring at it wondering what perfectly good components I should replace with new bits I can't really afford.
Right now the last part I'm waiting for is a backordered Fox 34 Float 140mm Boost fork. Yup, that's a couple of Sebenzas and and espresso. :D
 
Yeah, I know the feeling. My Marzocchi triple clamp cost me a pile back in the day, but man was it worth every penny!! It made my Stinky 5 look so good. :D
 
I like coffee, but I'm way more likely to drink tea than a coffee I consider to be crap.

That said, I love some coffee that others consider crap and depend on it in order to function.

Yup, sometimes the utility of the coffee outweighs the poor quality.
I even suffer through instant at my folks house. Shhh, don't tell anyone....

That looks promising! I bought some new local roaster's stuff, but sent it to Barman1!

I've sampled a couple cups of the local roast John and it's definitely worth the trip back.
Stringbeans Malawi.
I even added a line in my signature in its honor. ;)
 
Maybe I should box up my BK2 for some work. I can get the beans!
:D
You, sir, know your way around a sharpener!
 
This one is from the infamous W. Chase collection. It is my new Will Zermeno Seraph... S35VN- carbon fiber scale. It has a massive blade!

Starbucks House Blend......

Thanks to Wayne (Barman1) for putting a wonderful edge on my old Milie. What an outstanding member!!
