The Coffee conversation got a bit out of control. I am not really a very serious coffee drinker, to be quite honest, and this makes it even funnier, at least for me. I like green tea, sen-cha, not too hot. I used to drink cold Coke for Breakfast , until some inner voice told me that this might be one of the bad ideas for my health.
So now the Coffee. I do not own a coffee machine. Not even one of those Italian Stove Top Espresso Brewers. I have a Melitta-Filter holder, but only because it is one of the old original ceramic ones which I would never throw out. I used to have a coffee maker in Germany, but I would experiment with the device quite a bit and mainly use it for those cheap noodle soups.
Two sites in Germany linked to this blog because of the coffee article and both state that I offer a “lengthy description of how to get a good coffee in New York”. Both sites are quite excellent, you should give them a click.
elementarteilchen and Der Schockwellenreiter. Der Schockwellenreiter (“The Shockwave rider”) is a Kantel-Chaos-Team production. Jörg Kantel is the head of the Technology department at the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science. Please read (out loud) the profile of the institute (It is in English). It is a *Gem* of a definition. Schockwellenreiter has nothing to do with the institute, except that it is run by this really smart Jörg Kantel, who happens to have a great sense of humor too...
How did I get from Coffee to here?...
Let me publish this post, so I can start a new attempt to write something interesting. (Or do I actually *need* coffee in the morning?... Should I go and get my Light and sweet, right now?...)
