So bottom line, if I want to get into some super denk coffee what should I get first? I remember you saying something a couple years ago about the importance of a great grinder…I stacked that up in me noggin and surprised a few folks with that little morsel. You just wouldn’t think that as a normal person who doesn’t have a clue about coffee besides Carmel Iced Cappucino Venti with extra squeezins pleazin thank you Hugh.
I guarantee 98% of the free world would say that the roasting or brewing is the most critical piece of gear. I personally would have said toasty roaster because I’ve had great coffee on campfires with percolators, and I got a Frenchie that also does a fine job of turning a daydream of naked African tribal warriors into a long black afternoon delight. Hahaha.
So can you buy fresh toasty online that gets custom roasted on the way out the door so it’s just getting ready when it arrives? That would seem like a good way to get your feet wet. I could see spending a half a grand on a nice grind and a new machine for makina. I have had a handful of coffee times that are on a different level from shmansy fancy pants eating houses…you might know this as a ristorante? Mhyes? I spend money because I’ve been told I can’t take it with me? Don’t tell me what I can and can’t do…that’s a good way to get a free knuckle sammich. For havina. Obviously. But I think there is wisdom in these very pointy words. If you carefully extract the meaning of those words, it makes sense. I’m gonna try and work on this a bit more….run some numbers, do some testing and see if I can figure out the exact meaning of that very easily misunderstood word stack. Till then, the verdict is out, but spending is more fun than havina. Unless you don’t havina. It’s complicated. I’ll report back with my findings so everyone can benefit from my excruciating research. Maybe it has something to do with aerodynamic loading? I think a good place to start would be to solve for X.
I need a nice bag of fruit. That’s a jolly idea. Mmmmm. Did y’all know there is a tree called A Sausage Tree? That’s a sure fire way to get a party started. Long Black has some competition. My money is on the plant. So if you brew the fruit from a sausage tree does it come out like Long Black? The logic is there, I ran the numbers. I know a kid who is a plant. Well, he is actually 42 years old, but he would get his ass smoked by that sausage tree. He can barely even remember where he lives, and I swear this kid has only had sex like 6 times, that’s why I call him a plant.
Okay, enough horsin about. What’s a good website for roasts of a nice city variety and what’s the best way for makin dark tasties?
On a side note, I almost bought a Mesa Boogie amp this morning…A very sick tube amplifiers called Mark Five:35 in rackmount form. It’s not the exact amp I want though, so I didn’t. I’m still on the fence though. I have never owned a Mesa amp, and the Mark Series is widely hailed as the greatest bunch of amps EVER. That is quite the statement, but they have a cult following and have been in production since the 70s, so they got something right. Gotta run some numbers. Back to you Janet. Ya bitch.
