Coffee Drinker's Prayer

[pegscraper]

Caffeine is my shepherd; I shall not doze.
It maketh me to wake in green pastures
It leadeth me beyond the sleeping masses.
It restoreth my buzz
It leadeth me in the paths of consciousness for its name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of addiction,
I will fear no Equal For thou art with me;
Thy cream and thy sugar they comfort me.
Thou preparest a carafe before me in the presence of The Starbucks
Thou anointest my day with pep;
My mug runneth over.
Surely richness and taste shall follow me all the days of my life
And I will dwell in the House of Mocha forever.

I will recite this every morning before the first cup.

PLease dont bring up espresso. I purchased a manual espresso machine and we managed to break it before we even had a chance to use it. Now I have to send it out to New York to get it repaired. At a $1000 for the machine - that really pissed me off.:madani:

I hear ya. We use a $400 machine we bought from starbucks and it's worked well for many years. It does take some getting used too to use these machines but once you have it down you guys will love it.

It's a manual machine. Mine is a La Pavoni. Its the kind that has the big handle or lever, and you push that down to force the water and steam through the coffee grounds.

These machines are finicky and takes a lot of initial practice with the grind and packing, but once you get it right, it makes the best espresso. I was going to try it out for the first time. I plugged it in and did not realize the on button was engaged. I got called away for about 40 minutes and the machine heated up without any water - not a good thing to do with manual machines.

Being Italian we grew up on this stuff, so paying a little extra for a good machine is acceptable. Pop (95 and still kicking) always wanted one like this. So I figured I get one for the both of us for the holidays..... Now I will be lucky to get it back in a couple of months. I am sure the repair bill with not be TINY either.

WTF?? Just use a coffee maker and drink it black. You guys are going to have your guy cards revoked for drinking espresso! Do you drink it before or after you take your mud pack off your face?? I forgot, you go to the spa to have that done. Jeeeeeez. Coffee, black, hot, no cream, no sugar. I like it thick like motor oil, that's how you wake up in the morning!:crazy3:

[Mr.Sinister]

Your guy card is still on probation. How dare you! You still have some redemtion left over for the threesome incident.:crazy3:
