Double-shot Americano Coffee Facts with a dash of Comic Discussion
GarandMarine:
It was the second world war.
Watery coffee is probably not the right term. Diluted espresso (espresso in general really) and drip coffee are very different grinds and brewing styles, so they should be viewed and considered separately.
Metope:
I know they're different, but I assume diluted espresso was the closest to drip they could get over there.
ankhtahr:
So buying that mill was one of my better decisions. While my machine really, really sucks, I now get espresso which is already far better than before. But now I'll need to buy a hand tamper, as correct tampering with the machine mounted tamper is impossible.
At this point I have so much fun in working on these methods, that I'm actually considering to start working at a coffee place once I get some spare time.

It was really the only thing that worked. I tried "CAFE NORMALE" (in a stupid faux-spanish accent) in different ways at first to no avail. Stupid coffee tourist, they thought.
dr. nervioso:
So I've decided to start cold brewing coffee. Namely because when I tried to use my coffee maker it made some weird sounds that scared me.
I am looking forawrd to the experience, from what I've read, cold brew coffee is more up my alley. It is not as bitter and has a lighter intensity
Plus it will give me a use for my big ass Ball Mason Jar I have
