I can vouch for the quality of Bruce's brewing. In fact next week I will bring over some beans from Indonesia (Ujung Padang to be specific.) to try out using your press. Then I can compare to espresso method.

I no longer freeze or even refrigerate coffee. I've found that the best thing to do is buy whole roasted beans weekly and grind just what I need in a burr grinder right before use. I have all sorts of coffee contraptions but my daily go-to is the french press. BTW, Frank: IKEA sells a press for $9.99. http://www.ikea.com/ca/en/catalog/products/60241389/ I go through these pretty much yearly as bits break. I have all kinds of spare parts so I can swap bits in as they wear out and bust. My current press is made up from pieces of 3 or 4 older ones. :-) -- 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.
