I have this blog see, well obviously you do otherwise you would either be insane or… well brain dead. I never consider myself verbose in fact quite the contrary so I struggle to find something interesting I want to say that hasn’t been said by someone else and that I truly believe. So instead I will try and write about things a little more mundane but closer to my heart, today you will see 2 such articles, this one pretending to be from last week, in the vein hope you don’t notice. I would say damn but that would just be way too obvious. 

 How to make a good cup of coffee… and then some. 

 Over the years I have been given hellish cups of java, either to weak or so strong the spoon floats ( I am not joking my other half loves to use half and half when it comes to killing me making me a cuppa)In order to reduce the amount of deaths from caffeine overdose ( I reckon i’ve been close a few times, caffeine addiction is no laughing matter)  

 I will provide a simple set of rules on making this drink. 

1.  Don’t use instant. (not unless you like the taste of gravel and tar)
2. When filling your cafétier fill using the bottom by a bout 1 cm or just under half an inch, for you god fearing monarchists.
3. Boil the kettle allow the water to stop bubbling then poor immediatly
4. Make sure the ground beans are mixed well in the water.
5. Leave for at least 5 minutes, I prefer 10/15
6. Push the cafétier plunger down at the rate of 1cm every 2 seconds.
7. Drink.
8. Put the coffee back in the fridge (sealed) otherwise the cupboard goblins will smell it and then piss in it.
