Coffee Appreciation

..thanks for your feedback as well!

Been looking around a bit more, and found some mugs that are very nice apparently -
it's double-walled titanium ones:

..though have seen that exact model (without handle, but with proper lid) on amazon only, and now it seems to be out of stock (at least in this size (200ml) with that lid).

Anybody used products from that brand before? I've never heard of them..

My girlfriend has a spork by them...

I have a Snowpeak mug similar to that one https://snowpeak.com/products/ti-double-h450-stacking-mug-tw-122?variant=671161265 and it looks like you can buy plastic lids for them too. I'm always a little worried about putting it in a bag in case it gets dented but that is probably me just being precious.

Yea I saw those too - indeed very similar, it's just the surface is not smooth as with the keith ones, and I have read revies where people said apart from whether you like the feel or not it doesn't make for easier cleaning for sure.

They do make some serious (and expensive) coffee shit!
: D

Field Barista Coffee Drip, $69.95

I also have some of the chopsticks they make, and had very good customer service when one was a tiny bit wobbly. They make lots of things I like but don't need!

What if you use it in a coffee shop but your name's not Keith, and some other dude takes your coffee and your nice mug?

finally a mug to match my bike

I really hope your name's Keith

Well that's not a titanium frameset, is it.

Tribe Coffee in Woodstock was my favourite. Just out east of central Cape Town

That’s opposite the Test Kitchen isn’t it? Had great coffee there, so also gets my vote.

Also Chefs Warehouse

No Keith is the bikes name. Naming it after myself would just be weird.

Thanks!

Thanks also!

Discounts for reusable cups, selling them etc.

We offer 20p discount if you bring a cup because that’s about what our printed cups used to cost. The unit price is down now, but we can’t really reduce the discount.

Why don’t we sell reusable cups on the counter? Firstly because it’s a big capital investment for something which might take ages to shift - cash flow is a twat. Secondly because fuck takeaway cups and fuck reusables too. If you care, change your routine and drink your coffee on the premises on a ceramic cup. Replacing one environmentally disastrous cup with an environmentally disastrous cup you use 20 times before the novelty wears off and you lose it is horseshit.

If you care, change your routine and drink your coffee on the premises on a ceramic cup.

This, wholeheartedly

Understood. But people do take their coffee with them and as noted above, whose going to drive that change in behaviour to make drinking coffee less impactful on the environment, since you’re saying from the coffee shop perspective it’s a big financial load to carry..

Not sure what shipping to the UK is like but love this idea. Two coffees from the same farm processed differently. Currently drinking the Natural looking forward comparing to the Yellow Honey later.

Hasbean does this a bit, worth looking out for.

BERLIN

Yay!
Now we have another The Barn - only a stone's throw away (no pun intended) from the new google campus in Kreuzberg!
Including a massive round wooden table where you guys can show off your new apple laptops!

Hasn't the google campus closed down there?

Oh, it actually did, thanks for the heads-up!
I just heard the building had been squatted (and cleared by police shortly afterwards) -
but now it seems that google is indeed resigning the project (at least in Berlin Kreuzberg).

Arrived home to find this had been delivered. I see much caffeine in my life this weekend.

Lovely.

Please tell me you're getting some nicer cups though!
