my one beef with my burr grinder is that its lowest setting is enough grounds for "4 cups of coffee" which is far too much for a 2.5 mug percolator, so i have to shut it off partway through like a barbarian.

got up late and stumbled into an email thread about the "spinn" full stack brewer: https://www.spinn.com

1) it has a bunch fo tech rag logos on the page and won't ship for six months lol

2) from the sweet maria's home roasting list:

http://lists.sweetmariascoffee.com/pipermail/homeroast_lists.sweetmariascoffee.com/2016-December/012241.html posted:

At 18 to 22% extraction yield, no current espresso machine and grinder combination is currently capable of extracting more than 3/4 of the available dissolvable solids in coffee. This is not due to taste desirability factors, but due to 1) the fact that available energy for extraction preferentially extracts the top of the coffee bed compared to the bottom, 2) the non-uniformity in concentration gradient within the coffee bed, which enables net diffusion of dissolved coffee across the boundary layer adjacent to ground coffee particles, 3) non-uniformity in size and shape of ground coffee, 4) pressure gradient across the bed of coffee, which is nominally 9 bars at the top and near ambient at the bottom. Anyone who knows me knows that I am as hard core as they come with respect to espresso. But I understand the current limitations of espresso as an efficient method of extraction. I find alternatives that could address fundamental deficiencies in the process to be very interesting. The centrifugal extraction idea could address spatial non-uniformity issues inherent in the current process.

The idea has merit. Dunno if the execution can be good enough at the current price point. It won't matter if it can't produce the right temperature and grind coffee with a reasonable particle size distribution. I'm skeptical that these things can be well enough executed in a $400 machine.

I tried all the hot flavors but I liked boss select reserve the best

most asians are lactose intolerant yet nearly all of their canned coffee has creamer in it. i guess it's non-dairy soy or something

all i had left for liquor was gin, kahlua, and this nuclear-yellow stuff. it comes in a bottle that's ridiculously tall. can't remember the name

edit: "galliano" (https://www.google.com/search?q=yellow+liquor+tall+bottle&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8)


edit edit: lol

Although different variations of coffee cocktails pre-date the now-classic Irish coffee by at least 100 years, the original Irish coffee was invented and named by Joe Sheridan, a head chef in Foynes, County Limerick but originally from Castlederg, County Tyrone. The coffee was conceived after a group of American passengers disembarked from a Pan Am flying boat on a miserable winter evening in the 1940s. Sheridan added whiskey to the coffee to warm the passengers. After the passengers asked if they were being served Brazilian coffee, Sheridan told them it was "Irish coffee".[2][3]
