I'm turning into a coffee wa**er. Brought a cheap espresso machine. Normally drink strong instant or espresso if I have any.

I tried hasbean and wasn't really a fan. Tasted more like wine to me. Which could be a number of things, my s**t technique or my cheap taste buds.

I was led to believe that a whiskey wa**er SHOULD put a wee bit of water in?

That is, indeed, the tradition. http://www.scotchmaltwhisky.co.uk/how-to-drink.htm


Just to raise a pedantic point, we were discussing whiskey, not whisky

Just as true regardless of spelling, e.g.the classic "bourbon and branch".

lrogers75 said:im a nespresso man, so if at home, its risretto (black pod) or purple, at work and gym theres a costa and neros pretty much next door!

always black coffee no sugar


Risretto Nespresso is the dogs bo***cks. Fall back on Forte otherwise

Glad it's work paying and not me though


One guy fails to spell Ristretto, another quotes and copies. Ristretto.

I drink cheap instant most of the time. I'll have the occasionally espresso at work, brew my own with a tiny little machine.

I agree with most of the above, but there are huge amounts of variables...


You're right, of course! You know your stuff. I don't go near espresso when making coffee for myself (although I can still pull a good shot with a decent semi-auto machine, and do fairly decent latte art) because of the hassle.

One other important thing I thought of is cleanliness... If you go in a coffee shop and the machine, grinder, steaming wands etc. look a mess, 90% of the time the coffee will taste nasty. Really busy places that believe in good quality coffee still find the time to keep their equipment cleaned and regularly serviced.

Ah but your link was discussing Scotch whisky, and I drink and was talking about Irish whiskey. Which personally I would never put water in.

I love a bit of pedantry mr gorilla... I'm glad I know it can be spelt both ways now...

Re whiskey and water, not whisky and water, my first googleise found me at Jameson's website, where their master distillers recommend adding water to help release flavours
