Just for something different....
Back in the cafe sipping on piccolo's
I'm on call so can't go too far or do anything too interesting this weekend.
I need to roast but even with supermarket beans and good grinder and machine this is today's brew.![]()

An open basket is brilliant at showing if you've tamped evenly.
It's what I was taught with years ago, not that I could pull an anyway decent shot these days
Found this in my online travels.

Cool. Turkish coffee mmm ...like mud for your soul.
I had some Saudi coffee a while back and it was very strong.
Have always liked Turkish coffee. Get mine from a store in Enmore as an espresso grinder won't grind fine enough. You need a ditting grinder.
When I went though Dubai airport enroute to Greece I was so looking forward to a nice coffee like that. Saudi or Greek, what ever you want to call it. Made in the Ibrik, poured at the table, would be so nice together with a nice desert after a long flight. ALL THEY HAD WAS STARBUCKS!
Another time I asked my local Lebanese store for some Turkish coffee and they said they didn't have any. I could see it on their shelves! We went their regularly to get nice salamis. "You know, Turkish, or Greek coffee". Well after a while with a smile they said "Its Lebanese coffee. We had it before the Turks invaded, we had it before the Greeks" :-) I just had to ask for the right coffee "Lebanese Coffee".

I grew up on Lebanese/Greek/Turkish/Saudi/etc coffee. When I was really young we drank it with a bit of milk, then as we got older left the milk out. It's probably why I can happily have three espresso's just before bed and still easily fall asleep.
