Transcript:
Katy: What setting should we use to grind the coffee? Adam: That's a question for the ages! The fineness of the grounds impacts the flavor in subtle and mysterious ways. Clayton: "Drip coffee" it is. Adam: Give a man a coffee, he makes it through his morning. Teach a man how to make coffee... Clayton: ...And he'll never stop talking about it? I've poured the water in. Katy: And I've got the ground coffee ready. Adam: Okay-now this next part is really important. Carefully measure a tablespoon of ground coffee for every cup you want to make that's the secret. You can't go wrong. Of course, I'm the one laughing because I'm making a safety pot in the french press. Just in case. Laura: Happy Father's day, honey! Adam: What? Three types of coffee! Is it my birthday, too?!?

I have to decide whether to grind some Starbucks House Blend or Starbucks Shade Grown Mexico Organic in the morning. Then I have to decide what I’m replacing the Mexico with, as it’s the last of it. Suggestions? Nothing flavored, now.

@ adubman
You do realize that there is an even greater variety of choices in teas?

For me, a variety in little K-cups. No muss no fuss, and coffee in about a minute. And a bagel with cream cheese and raspberry jam. Ahhhhh, life is good.

By the way, Clayton. Your ‘drip coffee’ was a bit too subtle. It got lost on dad. Since I’m used to being played with, I got it.

Tony’s coffee for me, a local roaster. I only have one cup a day, but it is made with 5 TBLS of ground coffee.

We are blest with three local roasters that actually know what they’re doing, and will blend specials just for you.I prefer darker roasts – French or Italian – one Tblspn per cup & one for the pot. French Press or Esspresso for me.DO NOT POLLUTE GOOD COFFEE – no cream, no sugar, no cinnamon, no nutmeg, no foam, no whipped cream, no syrups.I will VERY occasionally have a Mocha, but it’s rare.Practical Factors exam for Chief Petty Officer: Cigar in one hand, full cup of coffee in other, Mess Deck to Bridge in under three minutes w/out spilling a drop.

Where’s DocToon when you need him?! Doc where can folks buy your Nuclear coffee beans? Are they considered “dirty bombs” until brewed?HAPPY FATHERS DAY, TO ALL THE … Fathers. Uncles. Grandpas.

You’re right T. Bruno. The only thing better than Kona is Jamacian Blue Mountain, but you have to be rich to drink it.

I don’t drink coffee and I still enjoy this strip! Coffee is a crutch.

My coffee of choice is “Whattaya Got?”, although I prefer it strong rather than otherwise.
On my way to work every morning I don’t stop for coffee anyplace along the way, because I can get the free stuff all day at the office. And since I’m usually the one who makes it for my floor (I’m usually the first coffee-drinker to arrive), I can make it as strong as I want (1.5 pouches per batch, instead of a pouch).

If you aren’t grinding your own beans, you’re missing out.

Anyone else notice that this strip is a day behind?
