    Well coffee is something I like, and you are doing it all wrong.

    first step is done getting you a espresso machine (a very decent one, although very modest)

    Second step is on the way (Venezuelan Coffee)

    For those that doesn't know, I promised long time ago to Dave I was going to send him Venezuelan coffee. I found some people selling it in the US (not as expensive as I thought it would be at 7$ for 8oz) so I sent him the coffee, problem is he is used to dripping coffee which really SUCKS. So now he has a nice espresso machine

    You know whats funny, I don't think I've ever had a cappuchino,expresso or any of those other "weird" coffees..
    High end for me is hitting Dunkin Donuts for coffee, daily is Maxwell House Master Blend..
    OK, guys, I amj off, TOO hot here but once again, Thank you Axel, Won't ever forget this!

    Dave's gonna learn to make REAL coffee? Sweeeeet!

    Of course this means he'll be able to make longer phone calls without getting tired ... did nobody think of this?

    Welcome to the world of good coffee Just like beer, cigars, weed, wine and everything else, there is what the masses consume and then there is what the connoisseur consumes.

    God I hate the coffee most people in US drinks, I can't stand it, and starbucks is elevated for no reason it tastes the same as Mc Donnalds coffee. A creamy black coffee is something everyone should have at least once in their life time.

    Nice gesture, Axel, and knowing Dave, I am sure all that Espresso will allow him more quality time in front of the keyboard - or on the phone -> to our dismay -> what have you done
