    MOREHEAD'S FINEST CUP OF COFFEE

    LET ME RE-ITERATE ONE MORE TIME IN CASE YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD ME SAY THIS BEFORE....I HAVE NEVER DRANK THE FIRST CUP OF COFFEE IN MY LIFE...NOW I HAVE MADE THOUSANDS OF BATCHES FOR THE PONEYTAIL....BUT NEVER DRANK THE FIRST DROP MYSELF...OH YES,... I LOVE THE SMELL OF DA BEANS A COOKING IN THE MACHINE....AHHH....BUT NO DRINK 'EM ANY COFFEE FOR ME.


    SO THIS MORNING THE ALARM CLOCK GOES OFF AT 6....I GET UP...AND GO TO THE KITCHEN TO MAKE THE BABE HER MORNING USUAL OF 6 CUPS SOME OF WHICH SHE TAKES TO THE OFFICE WITH HER...

    I SCOOP OUT 3 SPOONS OF SEATTLE'S FINEST BEANS AND INTO THE GRINDER....FUNNY THING HERE....WHY DOES SEATTLE CONSIDER IT TO BE THEIR BEAN? WHY IS IT CALLED SEATTLE'S FINEST WHEN THE BEANS ARE IMPORTED INTO THE U.S.??? DOES SEATTLE GROW COFFEE BEANS IN THE NORTHWEST? WHAT ON EARTH IS SO INTRIGUING ABOUT SEATTLE THAT COFFEE DRINKERS FEEL SO COMPELLED TO BUY THIS BRAND ? AND THEN THERE IS STARBUCKS.....AND DUNKIN DONUTS BRAND...I GUESS IT IS ALL IN THE NAME AS TO WHAT ATTRACTS THE CONSUMER CAUSE IT ALL COMES FROM THE SAME PLACE.....THE GROUND!

    WHY NOT CALL IT MOREHEAD'S FINEST? WHY DOESN'T MOREHEAD CITY HAVE IT'S OWN COFFEE BEAN?

    OKAY...ON TO THE FINALE OF MY MORNING CUP....I MEAN MY MORNING RANT....

    SO I GRIND THE BEANS UP FOR THE PONEYTAIL....ADD SIX CUPS OF FILTERED H20 TO THE CUISINART AND TURN THE BAD BOY ON....SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE LITTLE BEEPER GOES OFF SIGNIFYING THAT THE COFFEE IS NOW READY .....AND THE PONEYTAIL AMBLES HER WAY FROM BEDROOM TO THE GALLEY CUBBOARD AND RETRIEVES HER FAVORITE MUG.....ONE LITTLE PRESS DOWN ON THE DISPENSING LEVER AND THE CUP IS FULL.

    SHE THEN SLOWLY RECLINES HERSELF ONTO THE COUCH TO SIP AND WATCH THE MORNING NEWS...ONE SIPPY TWO SIPPY THREE SIPPIES FOUR....I WAS STRETCHED OUT MYSELF WITH A GLASS OF FRESH SQUEEZED TORTURING MYSELF LISTENING TO THE NEWS MEDIA TELLING ME FOR THE UMPTEEN THOUSANDTH TIME THAT REPUBLICANS AND DEMOCRATS ARE AT EACH OTHERS THROATS ABOUT HEALTH CARE BILL AND THAT QUEERS AND LESBOS SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO PLAY SOLDIER WITHIN OUR MILITARY FORCES.....SAME OL SHITOLA JUST A DIFFERENT DAY


    SHE HAD JUST FINISHED HER FIRST CUP AND SHE LOOKED AT ME AS IF SHE WAS GOING TO ASK FOR ANOTHER CUP

    WITH A CONFUSED GRIMACE ON HER FACE SHE SAID..."THIS IS THE WEAKEST COFFEE I HAVE EVER HAD" ...."WHAT BRAND WAS IT?" she asked.

    SHE THEN PASSED ME THE MUG AND THEIR WAS STILL MAYBE ONE-HALF OUNCE OF LIQUID REMAINING IN THE CUP

    IT WAS CLEAR IN COLOR...

    A FREIGHT TRAIN LOCOMOTIVE OF WOWISM AND AMAZEMENT JUST SHOCKED MY BODY!! SHE JUST DRANK A CUP OF PURE HOT WATER AND CALLED THEN CALLED IT WEAK. I GUESS IT WAS A BIT WEAK...

    I FORGOT TO ADD SEATTLES FINEST HOME GROUND BEANS TO DA CUISINART.

    I guess it means that she really does love you - If she didn't, you'd have been in "hot water"

    For me the perfect cup has to be around 14grams of coffee per 6 onz of water....on a french press....
    Watch the grind, the coarser the grind, the longer (contact with the hot water) it take to get the entire flavor out....
    The finer the coffee the faster it takes the flavors to come out...
    Just for knowledge..
    Coffee has 25% of good flavors sweets, chocolates , citric etc...
    and 75% is all about bitterness.. The more you extract the bitterer flavor you get... think of an orange. Fist is pure nice orange juice, then as it goes the bitter of the skin gets out…and damage your drink..

    BY THE WAY FRESHHH COFFEE IS HEADING YOUR WAY , just roasted and send it to the mail…..

    I like you Box have never drank coffee. I think it has more to do with putting 150 degree liquids in my mouth because I don't do hot chocoalte or hot tea either. I get a kick out of watching the people here at work who seemingly cannot function without it. We have weekly meetings where everyone brings there mug'o'joe with them, sets it on the table, and it sits there the entire meeting untouched. Then when it cools to the point that it will not draw a blister on the roof of your mouth they slam it like a cheap draft beer at a frat party. Then theres my hunting buddies who have to get up and drink theirs at 3:30 in the morning, because in exactly one hour and 17 minutes after they finish drinking, it is going to "HIT" them if you know what I mean. Why not skip the coffe and get 2 more hours of sleep? If you need a laxiitive why not go to the drug store? I'm not knocking you guys and gals who drink it, but I have never seen the attraction.

    best cup of coffee I have had is usually the one in front of me unless its maxwell house.

    Jen bought a new Kuerig machine and i like it. but usually the coffee is a little weak.

    I prefer dunkin donuts coffee. hate Mcdonalds coffee and could live with starbucks if it was 4,560.030 degrees fairnheit.

    Oh and BTW - Morehead City can't market a brand of coffee because it would create a 4-6 ft chop in your mug.

    I had some coffee that my buddy hector in Guatemala grew himself. Showed me the whole process and it was rather cool. Guatemalan coffee is pretty damn good. Better then that **** they call beef down there. wow. I imagine if you crossed a muskrat with an ohhhhhh lets say a Goodyear tire you would get a fine cut of guatemalan beef. Well - at least the beef we had been served over the last few years.
