you mean, like in an espresso? :D..

you can still burn the coffee on the cheaper 'warming' plates.. you assume that:

1) the heat variance between the liquid in the pot and the plate is minimal - not so. the plate has to be far hotter in order to heat the liquid.

2) the liquid in the pot is evenly heated throughout... no so. that closer to the the plate is, again, far hotter than that near the top of the pot...

you can taste the difference between fresh coffee and coffee left on the plate for 2+ hours....

Had terrible coffee today - should have asked what brand it was. Will NEVER drink that again.

Aaah I love a good cup of coffee... We have a Jura automatic coffee machine, was friggin pricey at around R8K, but worth every cent when you smell and taste that delicious brew!

Having a cup of Wiener Mischung right now... :)

Oooh there really are some awful coffees out there. Had one from a pot that had sat there a while - it was dreadful.

I guess you guys never heard of FG

Daar is niks beter as n' koppie FG with kondens melk en n' ouma beskuit as jy kamp of op die plaas is.

Kamp vuur koffie is maar net die beste ding
