Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
Thank you! I don't use the disposable ones anymore.
French Press?
I have tried one, and have one, but I don't like it too much. I like my coffee piping hot and blaaaack without using a microwave.
How about an electric percolator? My Mom made awesome coffee in ours during my growing up years. Coffee was always piping hot and aromatic. The aroma would waft from the kitchen to my bedroom and wake me up and my sweet Mama didn't even drink coffee! I'd give anything to have her Sunbeam Percolator, toaster and stand mixer!
What a sweet memory!! I remember those from church singings.
My wife and I purchased an electric percolator that's pretty much the same as they were in the 60's. (Presto 12 Cup) They also have a 6 cup model. These things are made to last and make amazing coffee. We bought new, but I'm sure you can find older models in antique/second hand shops.
Easy to use, easy to clean and freed up a large chunk of counter space since we removed our drip brewer. Brews a pot in about 8 minutes.
Another thing we love about it, is it will keep the coffee hot all day without burning it like our previous brewer. I'm having a cup now that was brewed 10 hours ago and it tastes as good as when it was fresh.
Honestly don't see why people switched to drip brewers.
