Thanks for reviving this thread, ChrisN. Don't know why (gear lust perhaps?) but it's always been one of my favorites.

Has everyone given up drinking coffee?

No kidding. I guess we can take our cameras to different coffee houses! I don't think the rules forbid shooting the same camera twice 🙂

I just wanted to get a pot like this today, with the ground coffee under a sieve, how do you like it? I figure I could "preload" it and simply pour hot (boiling?) water on it, does it taste differently?

It's usually called a "French Press," at least in the U.S. Makes very tasty coffee.

Wonder what they call it in France?

Cafetiere in UK too 🙂 makes a fine brew - uses coarser ground than filter and brews longer for fuller flavour.

Coarser sounds great, I could finally use this super old manual coffee grinder in the closet. I'll get one and report in a few days. Thanks for the replies.

yep, I can see we've been at this too long. a guy throws a great pic of a beautiful Leica up here and we yadda-yadda back and forth about the coffee. 🙄 *kiddin'* but yeah, coffee press = best way to go. + grinder? even better. but then add a sweet lookin' black.Leica? and tada! you've arrived. :angel:

I made you coffee with this device when you came 😀


it is different from any other cafetière

 

[martin s]

Wow you're right, I forgot. I just knew I've seen it before, your coffee was great! I'm exited now to drink what I drink every day brewed in a different way 😉 You guys might want to check out this, that's what we sometimes use.

Sorry for Hijacking the thread, and yeah, the black Leica was sweet, too 😉

The Epson has landed. Just got this a few days ago. Shown here with CV 25/4P mounted.

I prefer tea - coffee can be too grainy 🙂

Starbucks coffee and a hand rolled cigarette, no GAS in sight.

Making up a new wrist strap for my new 1953 dual-format Mamiya-6. It's a sweet shooter!
