And we make IC for around $1.30/l

$1.30 a litre, unless you're using that coloured water that supermarkets brand as milk, the coffee must be free.

I thought your balls only dropped when you were 15, there’s another drop and it’s enough that you can lick em

Wish I’d paid attention to how mum used to make it, but she made the best IC I’ve ever had.
Not sure how “economical” it was, but who cares if it tastes good , and I can’t tell you what coffee she used,, probably just instant, and for some reason International Roast rings a bell 🛎 (?).

Or I know a farmer and a bloke who roasts his own coffee

The wife reckons a maximum of $1.30, with all the ingredients.

We have relatives that farm coffee,and roast it for themselves.

According to Media blurbs I thought Farmers were a thing of the past.

I guess IR has to be good for something.
