Coffee, anyone?

[Stephen]

Kenko Rich and a kettle for us with the occasional filtered coffee.

Out of interest how many of you boil the kettle for your coffee. Mrs S gets annoyed if I boil the kettle for her coffee as she said it spoils the flavour.

I was told not to use boiling water on grounds or on instant, something to do with volatile compounds being driven off. I drink the stuff black so the slightly cooler coffee wasn’t a problem.
On a slightly different note, we were in a bar (that maybe took itself a bit too seriously) in Edinburgh centre last weekend. I ordered a whisky & Mrs R had a cocktail (Inland voyage?). The waiter asked how I took my whisky and I replied with a touch of water. The whisky duly arrived along with an eye dropper and phial of water…I hadn’t intended to drown the whisky but clearly they were taking no chances!

Sage machines are made by Breville ... just saying in case there is a price advantage

I thought Breville was one of those cheapo brands that are made by dodgy Chinese plants, that spend more on packaging than they do product.

I thought they were an American company who make excellent sandwich makers

Australian apparently, so what do I know.

[Mervyn and Trish]

Surely sandwich makers are all George Formby?

I thought he was into Banjo’s

[Mervyn and Trish]

The machines are multi purpose. We use ours for cleaning windows as well as toasting sandwiches.

No, he is into leaning on a lamp post.

[Stephen]

That’s when he’s not cleaning windows

[oldbluefox]

Waiting for a certain little lady.

[Stephen]

Did she go by
