Coffee

Snowy / Mc

thanks for your feedback.

The lip of the mug measures aprox 3/8" thick, difficult to measure due to the curvature.

Mc Thanks for the offer of posting me a mug from the US, will drop you a PM

thanks again

[Snowy]

That sounds like a win-win actually. Hit up MCL's very kind offer and then you'll know for sure and have a kick ass mug.

Ha I just dig a couple of mugs out of storage. One is a Japanese made mug with a series of duck decoys on it

The other is just a humble, innocuous diner mug

Or is it?

NOOOOOPE. I almost dropped the goddamn thing when I pulled it out of the box. Gets me every time.

Intelligentsia Coffee at Ground Support Cafe is my go to daily!

[Seul]

Hahaha yeah that'd freak me the fuck out as well…

Those ducks though 

[mclaincausey]

Yeah when I was a little boy I was obsessed with ducks and turtles. This was a Christmas present so it is very special to me.

I also loved cowboys. Had a "Cowboy Bob" persona.

Tackle, Intelli's a great drop, nice one.

Jumpin Jesus, just got a superior Chemex from this place: http://www.yelp.com/biz/bull-run-coffee-bar-minneapolis  It was their Yirgacheffe and it gave Paradise's a run for its money.

I also sampled their cold press, which was very nice.  They roast a cold press bean.  Bought 12oz of that and will be Toddying that up this evening.

Since y'all can just as easily order from Paradise, if I ever do a coffee exchange I will probably source the beans from these guys.

I ran out of Panama Geisha yesterday sniffs. It had a good run. Had a few weeks of Honey and a few weeks of Washed. Both were out of this world. Think I preferred the Washed all in all, bit smoother/subtle/less sweet.

I Toddyed up some coldpressed brew last night using a local place, Bull Run's, cold brew roast.

Best I've had. Mine is better than theirs was too. 14 hour steep in the fridge.

You get good beans from Dave's Coffee online. Bling Pig espresso or Black Crow blends are great.

Trying to figure out whats better for the forearms hand grinding an entire bag of coffee in one sitting or wanking?

[tmg]

^^ And there it is, the question for the modern age

[mclaincausey]

"To Wank or to Crank, that is the question."

All I can say, for that to even be a question, you must have some damn fine coffee

Stumptown Ethiopia Duromina

[seawolf]

Is that even a question?! Stumptown can't be THAT good! (I don't know, I've never tried the coffee)

[urbanwoodsman]

Jeff got me a sweet coffee grinder for my bday.

[joesaintjohn]

Urb, that's the same one I use. Awesome little bugger.

All you need for a nightshift at work.

One of the lads came into the office spotted the aeropress and thought it was some kind of dodgy sex pump!  I laughed before correcting him but the rig crew probably view me in a different light now!
