Labels: Isola

I had to get the front end of the scooter as well, this blend has some robusta beans in it. I haven't decided which one I prefer yet, but Isola needs a finer grind than I can get. Time to modify the grinder perhaps. Anyway, nice label.

/O.K.

I love these labels too! Very stylish!

Grinder suggestion:

Buy a millstone, a mill, and turn on the water both on the stove and in the dam for the waterwheel - ready, set, go! Can you imagine the coffeebeans in an old stone mill? I can! And the smell, imagine the smell!

Don't you think that would be slightly over the top? I just grind about 7-16 grams of coffee each time...

Well, how about a scale model of one? Or better yet a steam powered grinder!

Well, the espresso machine has steam, that's good enough for me. But I need you to make me a tamper of depleted uranium in the lathe so I don't have to press so hard. :)

But an "ångvissla" would be nice to have added to the machine...

Hey, you can just start a new business - stoneground millstone espresso - sell it very expensively and you will earn a living very quickly. Tell them the millstone is organic too!

One has to include the fact that the millstones are 2 billion years old as well. What kind of rock are millstones made of?

LS said...

I think sandstone. So not that old, necessarily. Or maybe limestone? Need to look into this.
