Agreed 😁

And the coffee tastes better too. 

 So much so! I love the process myself

 😬😬😬😬 

 i just got a nescafe dulce gusto today... my espresso is as good or equal to what i pay more for at the local cafes with their 1kEUR+ machines

just need the baby "bica" cups to go with it now

the best coffee is a shot, in a heated small ceramic cup, sipped slowly, everything else is extravagance and decadence 😀

 yeah i think what makes it better is the good quality coffee... the two main brands you see here in #madeira for coffee are Delta and Sical, and there was another one... Torrie - these are the three you see most often in the numerous cafes dotted around the island

best coffee i have ever enjoyed has always been Lavazza Oro and this Buondi stuff i got to start with for my machine is pretty much high quality also, i'll have to search around for options 

 Coffee is my work so I'm biased. 😊 

 well, i just wannan bica and that's that (the madeiran word for an espresso shot)

everything else you get at cafes here includes UHT milk, which is an abomination 

 I think so. The beans and grinder are in the mail, but I like the coffee I've been making so far. It's just that my grounds have gotten stale or something over time, so I decided to buy whole beans from now on. 

 💯  whole bean is the way to go. Don't put them in a freezer or fridge. You'll read that a lot of places, it's bad advice. Cool, dark, and dry storage.  

 Thanks. Will do 👍 

 Haha, that can definitely be a downside 😅

For those days, I'd probably just make tea. It's more forgiving. 

 Thanks, but I just bought a bunch.

 Nice, I got more of the @satscoffee that I already had, but as whole beans. 

 I didn't for my whole life and one random shift in my taste buds later, I've fallen into the trap. I'm a #coffeechain bro now 😭 

 I'm so very so to hear that. I will remain on the #teachain. 

Good journey, bro! 

 

 I can at least assure you that my tea game will remain strong 💪 

 That's reassuring!  

 I was thinking about it, that if I ever do I'd just stick some raw beans in the oven and call it a day.

I've heard it smells amazing. 

 A frying pan with constant stirring.
