How many coffee drinkers do you have in the house, Paul? Does Grace drink ~that~ much? ;-) It makes good coffee. Not as good as the press of course, but it's better than the coffee served in most restaurants and coffee shops. The beans and fresh grinding are key. I agree on that. Decent beans fresh ground are the only way to go. I once lived with a room mate who bought her beans green and roasted them herself. I gotta tell ya, there's nothing like grinding still-warm beans to make a pot of fresh coffee. Best I've ever had... cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
