My news alerts for Coffee brought up, once again, the tragic llink between Coffee and suicide bombers.

Coffee shops, willing to serve all, have easy targets for suicide bombers..This time, in the small town of Dimona, the coffee shop was the place the terrorist went for his final perk of the day..before attempting his hand at mass murder.

The outcome was sad...but not as bad as it could have been..since only one bomber managed to explode his device.

Here is a link (sorry it is so long and i don't know how to create it as a short hyperlink)

I started using Tom's 'basic' profile, but found it run a bit long, even when ready to hit cool, so have switched to his cupping profile which is nearly the same in terms of stages and temperatures, but at least 2 mins shorter.

At 6:04pm on December 10th, 2007, Myron Joshua said…: So it is a Kavod to be invited as a friend, and not "merely" a "haver"..I followed the link..but did not see how i was supposed to accept your offer.

I am happy you are getting a chance to meet my friend sosulhae, who i know as "Song". He is a special person.

Hag Sameah!

Nowadays espresso and drip brewing is in fashion
among coffee lovers even though instant coffee is prevailed
in the whole coffee market.

At 5:10pm on December 3rd, 2007, Myron Joshua said…: Robert, I follow lists and forums less and less..so am not sure how active i will be here. Just wanting to tell you that your new hangout looks great and promising.

It will be interesting to see what direction this takes.

Good Luck, BeHatzlaha!!
Myron

Did you know?
Costa Rica is the only country in the world which has issued an executive order banning the production of any variety of coffee other than Arabica. This standard is made possible by the expertise, experience and favorable physical conditions found in this remarkable land.
I'm going to Costa Rica soon!

Computers and coffee roasting do NOT mix. How many burnt batches of coffee before I follow that rule?
