Chriselle 158 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 So, how was that episode GG? I lost the janken for control of the remote last night and my wife wanted nothing to do with any Yukie... Link to post Share on other sites
grungy-gonads 54 Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Oh it had lots of Yukie in it, so all was good. Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted January 18, 2013 Share Posted January 18, 2013 The black coffee, no sugar, is always the safest choice really. Surely noone can screw up that, right? Hah!!! Tried Starbuksu lately? Dishwater with the smell of a coffee bean somewhere within a mile or two! Only 2 attempts at canned coffee this trip, both black and unsweetened. Both better than nothing, but only just! There WAS, however, some caffeine in there, so that was a bonus! Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Anyone evere tried to just stop taking coffee? I used to be on about 4 a day. Once maxed on about ten. For about 4 years now, I have not had a single coffee. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 That explains a lot of things WVS (aka thurs). I am stabilised on 3 double shot coffees a day (brekky, morning break and lunch). In Japan, though, we had to reduce the intake because of the (mostly) woeful dishwater served up as coffee. Link to post Share on other sites
Chriselle 158 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Three cups throughout the morning for me. I don't do the drugs and not much of a boozer so I can have my coffee vise I figure. I'm in the market for a new coffee machine. Still thinking of getting a Nespresso machine but also a cheap french press makes a good cup of coffee apparently. Link to post Share on other sites

JA2340 16 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 We have a Nespresso machine in our caravan, makes a decent cup so long as you buy the "extra strong" capsules. Else there's too much water between the caffeine molecules! Link to post Share on other sites

I'm in the market for a new coffee machine. Still thinking of getting a Nespresso machine but also a cheap french press makes a good cup of coffee apparently. I use an Aeropress. It makes French-press style very strong coffee, but much faster using finer ground coffee, with no grinds in the brew, and with a plug of coffee thats much easier to dispose of than cleaning a French press. Cool kidz on Gizmodo and Engadget etc. also rave about them. I got mine at 80 to the dollar but it was about 3500 yen off US amazon delivered. It comes with about 300 filters but get some extra filters just in case. Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Is the Nespresso machine actual coffee then and not just a fancy way of delivering Nescafe Instant coffee to your cup? Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 the coffee come in capsules. One per cup, then throw away or recycle the aluminium capsule. Saves all that cleaning that comes with an expresso machine. http://www.nespresso...sso/grands_crus Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Yep, ground coffee! You can get "reusable" capsules which allow you to use your own grind, or tea (of whatever variety you want) in the machine. Link to post Share on other sites
Alexander L 80 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 really? not seen those. But why would Nesle do that? Certainly not in their interest. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Third party stuff, not Nestle! Certainly not in Nestle's interest, but equally, they still sell the machine to people who don't drink coffee, so a slight win for them. Link to post Share on other sites

Yes,,,Mr.W I've heard a lot of people who have premium makers and who have bought the Aeropress and have been quite impressed to the point of preferring the Aeropress. Checking Rakuten right now.. Also MUST get a milk froth-er. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Snob! To whom do you refer, eggle-person? Surely not me! Fact is I tried the reusable ones just the once - gave me no sense of caffeine (rather like Starbucksu) and have used their prefilled ones since - admittedly, only the extra string ones!
