you can smell stale coffee a mile off, no need to taste it.
I agree. And yet...
i have a Naim amplifier too, sorry if that made you head explode.
KABOOOM!
( does it grind coffee for you? )
And of course, it's even worse when one of them makes you a coffee but completely over draws it as they've never noticed...
Yeah it takes about 10 seconds longer to make a proper coffee,
Then the five minutes cleaning out the kit for next time...
[i]But instant coffee isn't coffee. It's modified gravy granules or something, I dunno, or possibly grout? It's definitely not coffee, that's for sure.
Yeah it takes about 10 seconds longer to make a proper coffee, but on the plus side you get a drink that doesn't taste like it's been scraped out of a u-bend. [/i]
Can't figure out if you're being serious or not.
Decent instant coffee doesn't taste bad though.

It takes you five minutes to clean out a cafetiere?

You use a cafetiere? So all you do is poor water on ground coffee?.
The Starbucks added grit sachets are nice, but well too pricey for a regular brew.

That was kinda the point...
Yeah but he does it in an artisan way with a carefully curated coffee selection.
unless you wear a selvage denim coffee apron while brewing you can get in the sea.
(hopefully thats a double whammy and somebody is boiling their piss at that)
I sincerely hope that no one uses standard tap water for their artisan coffee (Shudders). My water sommelier is particularly touchy about that.

Now THAT'S artisan coffee. Although it should be hot, not boiling.
Tesco’s ashbrook spring has the best TDS and ph levels for coffee if you cant stretch to an inline reverse osmosis set-up, its also cheap if you buy it in 5L bottles.
HTH
Cafe Direct Machu Pichu, very, very good.
Coffee bags are a reasonable compromise for anyone not willing to skive off work for 2 minutes whilst cleaning their cafetière.

anyway, instant coffee is vile rank shite
Millicano is ok, but I have started a bit of psychological warfare at work to persuade them to get a proper machine.
I bought an aeropress and 200g of Tigerstripe.
The amount of comments I get, when I have made it, on the lovely smell is going a long way.
It only takes a couple of minutes to make and wash up
@Binners - Grounds for Constructive Dismissal IMO the employer should have ensured adequate coffee and tea provisions are provided.
My advice resign stating the "dole coffee" has made your position untenable and file a claim for constructive dismissal with the Employment Tribunal.
I'll second piemonster's suggestion of coffee bags. I use them at work and have got quite a few others onto them. About £2.60 for 18 bags from bigger Sainsbury's or Tesco's.
