Thank the stars! Someone in this house accidentally bought K-cups without looking closely at the label and they're the only coffee left in here until pay day.
Well, I didn't know that. That's my first new thing for the day.
Worked out about 40 years ago that life's too short to drink instant coffee or poor wine.
I've always been worried about what is done to poor innocent coffee beans to turn them into instant coffee. The mind boggles at what they do to make remove the caffeine from already nasty muck. Here 'reasonable' instant coffee costs about $80kg. My fresh coffee is usually around $20 a kg. (yes I'm aware fresh weighs more by mass than instant)
I must admit I'm a bit OCD about my coffee; I have burr grinder, and make most of my coffee with a beautiful, retro, red, SMEG dripolator. Also have a manual espresso maker and a French press. I drink about 10 demitasse a day.
