I don't know if the main crop has shipped - will find out....

And yes - the care pack of Intelly coffee mixed with my Chemex makes me a smug, caffeinated man.

I'll never own too many items with which to enjoy coffee.

You could always serve it to someone you don't like, thus saving you the effort of having to actually pee in their coffee....

Hey Matt! How are you holding up? Some folks here were getting worried that you had done in ol' Oscar and were ashamed to show your face. I, on the other had, kept the faith...ummm...Oscar is OK, right? :shock: :D

I'd say you're breaking our hearts by leaving us, but I'd better not because ol' George wouldn't forgive me for it. Anyway, we're all biting our nails (figuratively) for you. But you better get some coffee roasted! This will never do. I've been told that two days without coffee will make you very sick. Image

Two hours in London was bad enough...I had to remedy it with very fresh roasted coffee this morning in Quads!
