And you've reminded me that a grinder is on my birthday list. Matt, always happy to be snobby.You are right the stuff I'm talking about is the same as Kopi Luuwak although they really do call it weasel. It costs more but not that much more. Remember $50 is a pretty good monthly salary overthere. Tankeduptaco, I've nevr heard of this coffeein a tube. I know my moter goes on about Camp Coffee from the war. Maybe I'll stick (and believe me condensed milk does) with the civet poo. Kalyn, you are right that the Vietnamese condensed milk coffee is addictive.

It's getting to the point where if I haven't roasted the beans myself, it just isn't the same. I wouldn't even serve instant coffee to Jehova's witnesses. My Rancilio Rocky and Silvia grind and brew espresso better than 99% of cafes I've been to, to the point where I can't remember that last time I even ordered a coffee in a cafe. I'm guessing your weasel poo coffee is similar to Kopi Luwak, which is the Indonesian name for Civet poo coffee... It's actually some of the most expensive stuff around because the civets supposedly only eat the best cherries, and of course, supply is limited by the number of villagers who can be convinced to go around hunting for shit all day. Keep up the snobbery. Matt Hey Ed,

Personally I love coffee. I have a Cuisinart machine called "Grind and Brew" where you put the beans in the top, pour in the water and set the time. Then in the morning this wonderful machine grinds the coffee, sucks it down to the filter and brews your coffee with fresh ground beans. It's quite heavenly. Not cheap, but worth the splurge.

Just squeeze a bit into your cup,add boiling water and there you are, milky coffee. They probably used sweetened condensed milk too. I do believe you can still buy it.
