WillyBob Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I am guessing Hope is around 1000 miles from here. Just a guess, it may be more. Not out of the realm of a pop in... Highly unlikely. google sez 1,198 mile from here... little more unlikely... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The carafe keeps it hot enough and seems to avoid the “cooked” taste it gets from sitting on the Bunn’s hot plate. I would rather nuke warm coffee from the carafe than drink it warm or drink it cooked. Clearly, I’m not a coffee connoisseur. That said, to open a new can of worms, I do put a divot in the grounds, let the Bunn start for a few seconds and stop it for ~30 seconds to get a “bloom.” To me, the resulting coffee is smother than just starting the process and letting it go to conclusion. So maybe I am a “cable guy,” when it comes to coffee. --- I do the "blooming" thing with a French press too. Pour water over the grounds to fill mark, let sit for a a couple minutes then proceed to press. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now over to LF's friends place to do some pruning. Any of our coffee thread guys going to the Pilgrimage? Guessing Jimbo and Carl will make it. Just wonder who is traveling the greatest distance? --- I won't be traveling the greatest distance, just under 500 miles, but with expectations of continued abuse from 'Bo and Carl it will Seem the longest miles travelled.
