Dunkin' Donuts coffee rocks!

I'm waiting for a 'real' espresso machine to be delivered tomorrow, then I get to start the hunt for good, fresh-roasted beans... Not looking forward to spending a bunch of time on that, but we are looking forward to having great espresso and cappuchinos!

Perfect. This is what I use at work. We have a fancy water machine in the office kitchen that cleans the water (filters + UV light) and then heats or chills it. The hot water it produces is near-boiling and it's instant.

French press is simple, easy to use, no electricity required, and gives more flavor than a drip maker IMO. Simple to clean too, just rinse out the parts in hot water when you're done.

Cool, will have to give it a try, as we have the same fancy water machine at my work!

Coffee??? At least when TD was here it was some obscure wine or the other. Whose only real appeal was its ridiculously high price Or at least not being available to just anyone

Hey Chris,
forget all this lacy panties American idea of good coffee. Henry had the right idea:

2. But a small expresso pot ($15). Fill the bottom half with water, place the sieve into the opening and fill with good grounds, screw upper "pot" on to lower half and place on stove on medium heat. When steam stops spewing out, remove from heat and you have expresso. Mix with 1 to 4 with just boiled hot water to make cafe americano

Nothing beats this method for simplicy, speed, and superb results.
Try to find some good Indonesian or Kenyan coffee too.
