It's Back...

The electricity is.  We're having terrible wind storms.  I don't think it has rained much here, but the winds are awful. There was no electricity when I woke up.  Eventually, I boiled myself some coffee, with the sugar.

• turkish coffee
• sugar
• water

It was so much better than the ufesa coffemaker makes me.  So please consider this a customer report, or whatever they are.  This ufesa coffee maker customer reports that the coffee maker is a gyp.  It wastes good coffee, because the water isn't hot enough and it doesn't activate/cook/filter whatever the full flavor out of the grinds.  I've used the same Turkish coffee in a couple of different filter/drip machines, plus in percolators, and believe me the ufesa is the very worst.    It's so bad that I can take the grinds out of the filter, put them in a pot with water, boil and I'll get a much more satisfying cup of coffee.  Now, that's pretty pathetic and a total waste of money.

So, when I have the opportunity, I'll be buying myself some sort of new coffeemaker or perculator, whether old-fashioned or electric, I'm not sure yet.  I may just start boiling up my coffee in the morning, even when there is electricity.

Oops!  I had better return the milk back to the fridge.  I had left it by a cold window instead of reopening the refrigerator when we didn't have electricity.
