coffee.
this is interesting.
I used to work in the theatres and they had shitty NHS maxwell house instant crap that I couldn't drink so I took a cafetiere into work to make my coffee with. Then I moved to a new hospital and came accross the ground coffee bags (like teabags) which I thought was marvelous! and they were good but not great. A step in the right direction.
So the other day I was making an espresso on the old hob and decided I'd rather have a long coffee instead so topped it up with hot water which was grand. Now why can't they package espresso shots to be topped up with hot water as a way of taking good coffee to work? Like those little milk cartons you get.
anyway, carry on.

any time is the right time to break out some beers. can you find some Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale? even though they only make a limited supply around Christmas time, and you live in the UK?
i have to say that is possibly my favorite beer ever

I can't guarantee any specialty ales, I'm afraid, although I do have copious quantities of Corona. Not when driving though, dumb idea.
Maybe the christmas beer you can sometimes find in London. 7.5% alcohol by the pint? Blindin'!

say I have a shot of espresso in the bottom of my mug, then I fill the rest of the mug up with hot water to make an ordinary strength coffee
my dad has a bottle of 9% beer he's never dared open, I think it's called diablo

thats what I meant too, I don't really see the difference, I use the same coffee in my filter machine (only less of it) as I do in the espresso thingy so it all tastes the same to me.

you're a pedant.
maybe it does taste different but it's a damn sight better
than instant muck or those gravely coffee-bag things
it's a step in the right direction for the shitty working
environment

coffee bag? i'm talking about fresh ground coffee. something about putting pure water in there, as opposed to brewing the water through the coffee tastes different. still one of those is better than no coffee
