Also you can find these little espresso makers that go on your stove if you are into that kind of thing. Add chocolate or any other flavor (easy to make yourself) and milk and you've saved yourself the cost of starbucks ($6-7 and you've bought yourself a pound of coffee, instead of one drink).Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06556045078302783575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681345169052205157.post-54991761771811858142009-02-26T14:52:00.000-06:002009-02-26T14:52:00.000-06:00Also check out Ikea.

Then you add hot (almost boiling) water. Stir it with a wooden utensil. Then let it stand for 3-5 minutes. Then put the lid/filter unit on and push the plunger down which filters out the grounds and pushes the grounds to the bottom, then you pour out the coffee to drink.Melissa Jagearshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07439765292197683329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-681345169052205157.post-2406360073727650842009-01-16T13:18:00.000-06:002009-01-16T13:18:00.000-06:00How exactly does it work?I agree with you about th...How exactly does it work?<BR/><BR/>I agree with you about the taste of coffee.
