Stupid Machine

I'm talking about my French Press. It's not even really a machine, when you compare it to the other machine, the Coffee Maker. But since my coffee maker broke, I have to use it. I don't always make the best coffee with it, although this week the coffee has been good and I am getting much better at it. At least until today. Today I actually had to DILUTE my coffee. I poured the water over the grounds, and then I forgot about it. I usually let the coffee steep for 4-5 minutes. Today, I forgot for 25 minutes. Yeah. Pretty strong cup a joe, that. And do you want to know what distracted me? NCIS marathon!

don't blame the press for what was probably the best cup of coffee you've ever had. coffee should be so strong it rips your soul out of your body and replaces it with jet fuel.

I'm losing my blog-cherry right at this very moment... Mariah Flynn has shown me to the dark side, but I agree with kumogakure the French Press makes the best coffee you have ever had.

You Americans always blame everything on the French.
