Today [15]

[kado897]

I had a bank card call from the "police" just before Xmas. I knew something was not right almost immediately when they started asking things they should have known like which bank I used. If they didn't know which bank where did they get my phone number from. They hung up when I started asking questions. I checked with my bank and sure enough it was a scam call.

Hard to believe people fall for some of these goofy scams

 

[kado897]

Yes Mike in the cold light of day but you are probably distracted at the time. They rely on that.

Oh hubby said I shouldn't encourage them to just put the phone down but if I've got time I like to see what else they come up.

I cant wait from ebay to send me sandisk extreme, so I got a little slower usb.

Thank you Bill.

Got a new coffee maker from Bunn.
Cost a little more in the store but well worth the money.
For sure it does make a difference what coffee maker one uses.

Moved on from filters a while ago ... Current coffee is made using the Beast ...

Grind own beans too

Though I tend to grind direct into the Filter Holder rather than batch grind

I think I'll stick with instant.

 

[Barman58]

Keith I usually drink a large Espresso which I can make direct from beans in a lot less than a minute - Pretty Instant

It still looks expensive and complicated. Anyway I'm drinking tea ATM.

 

[Joan Archer]

I mostly drink instant during the day but put the percolator on after our evening meal. Still not the expensive stuff but we enjoy it.

For once a topic I really like

I am caffeine addict, following quite a similar pattern in my daily life following four different methods to make my coffee during the day.

My first cup every day must be strong (read: really strong!). That I will make with this:

​

When done I make a full can filter coffee with this, it lasts a few hours:

​

In the afternoon I, according to my mood, drink Nescafé instant coffee or make strong espresso or cappuccino with this pre-historical remnant left here by my estranged wife, :

​

(I think they have a more modern version available today (website), this is at least 5 years old. The pic is from the website.)

Best part of it is it is directly connected to water mains, I never need to fill in the water.

Because my doctor has made me to monitor and measure my coffee consumption, I know that I drink about 1.3 to 1.5 liters coffee per day (44 to 50 US fluid ounces or 46 to 53 UK fluid ounces). Black (except cappuccino), naturally with no sugar.

How is your blood pressure?:devil:

How is your blood pressure?:devil:

Sorry, need to know basis information. I know, my doc knows, in a year or two my mortician tries to figure it out.

 

[whs]

I have trouble with the acid in the coffee. That's why I can only drink coffee made with the big Italien espresso machines. They have enough pressure to reduce the acid.

When I lived in Austria, I never had trouble with coffee because they always use the espresso machines. There, coffee is a science. They have 12 different names for coffees depending how they are made - with milk, with creme, allongated with water, etc.

I drink to much coffee...
