Purists will also say it overheats the bean.

(I wish I'd stayed with percolator - then I wouldn't know the difference between really good and mediocre and I'd have saved lots of money.)

Bump.

I drive past Zentvelds everytime I'm visiting the SIL at Newrybar as they are just up the road.

I live with a barista and I service a few machines yet we don't make coffee at home, it's a going out thing

When in Byron I drink at Bayleaf, who are very, very consistent and roast their own beans with a roastery opposite the café in Marvel St.
