Coffee Appreciation

This is me. I don't care what other people think, fresh coffee is too important to give a shit :)

"What are you doing there?"

Just grindin' my coffee. Nothing like the taste of freshly ground coffee!

"Is it a coffee grinder?"

Yeah, it's a Japanese one. It says for outdoor use on the bottom but I've never had a problem using it indoors (lol)

"So is it a special kind of coffee?"

No not really, just the good stuff. It comes through the post because it's impossible to buy decent coffee in Mile End.

"Wow I wouldn't have the patience, looks like it takes too long!"

It really takes no time at all and it gives me a nice little arm workout every day, unlike grinding espresso which leaves you pondering questions like "If one day I will be forgotten, what is the point of all of my work?". Something to think about when you go back to your desk.

"So how is it different from the coffee in the machine cafe here?"

It's not shit - he's a great guy but Sergei's coffee tastes burnt.

"Is that like a french press?"

Yes it's actually very similar, it just has a paper filter which only lets through the good stuff and it's much easier to clean. Look, it's basically like a giant syringe! (pretends to inject colleague with Aeropress)

"I doubt I could taste the difference haha!"

Probably because you drink instant and have no taste buds
