vac pot vacation

while hops is away, i've been brewing with my yama vac pot.

i had a moment of tragedy yesterday when i tried to brew with my bodum vac pot, only to discover that i can't brew a single serving in it -- i had to dump my ruined beans. argh!

the yama takes the guat and greatly accentuates that special something -- that nutty/nutella flavor that i value so highly in coffee, and am usually unable to achieve. tomorrow perhaps i'll try some panama and find out whether this flavor comes from the vacpot or maybe the roast, or if it's specific to teh guat. if it's the guat, i sense a big time coffee order in my near future.

hops is a wizard on the chemex (which we found for $2 at a church basement sale -- SCORE) and i likes me some chemex coffee, but if only the vacpot can bring out my cherished coffee flavor, i'm there. plus, it's fun to watch. yay, physics!
