Finally finished off the big 3kg/6.6lb bag of beans, so opened up a fresh bag of the house beens from the grocer we visited the other day (Piedimonte's). I had a lovely espresso and a jam doughnut from the van at the Queen Victoria Market.
I’ve been using Eight O’clock Original for cold brew for a while. It‘s excellent for that - very smooth. Try using room temp water in your French press sometime and steep it in your refrigerator. i like to let it steep at room temp on the counter for a few hours then stick it in the fridge overnight. I usually make it double strength and dilute it with water 1:1 over ice, but that’s just a preference.Eight O'Clock Original. French Press. Black. What was leftover from the french press went into a small glass bottle with a lid and I put it in the fridge. I will have an iced coffee with it this afternoon or tomorrow morning.
I certainly will, Trevor. Thank you.I’ve been using Eight O’clock Original for cold brew for a while. It‘s excellent for that - very smooth.

I have tried all kids of means to keep deer out and in the end I found a way that worked really well. I used a single electric wire 4ft off the ground. Of course deer can jump that with ease. However, what I did was cut aluminum foil squares 2" x 2" and a teaspoon of peanut butter in the center of the square. Wrap the square around the electric wire every 4 ft all around the perimeter. They smell it and check it out and get themself a "kiss" and they acknowledge the barrier and will not jump over it. Works like a champ.Today is Organic Sumatra and possibly some yard work if it doesn’t rain. Once I get this done it will not require all the maintenance that it once did. I didn’t mind it to a degree but spending money to watch the deer eat everything just planted is pointless. Our neighbors that have vegetable gardens put up 8 ft fences to keep them out. I watched a deer the other day jump a 5ft fence with ease.
Have a safe and enjoyable trip.we are driving to Houston to see the Astros and returning in the morning.
