Okay, so I am having coffee for lunch today.
I am vibrating a little bit.
I bought myself a Kurieg from my husband fro Christmas.
He still makes me coffee for breakfast, so I drink it so as not to hurt his feelings, but the kureig is much better coffee... so...

But is it the dark side, or the light?

We are re-watching all the star wars movies in order so we can see the new one this weekend.
My husband was getting tomorrows coffee set up and I said,"You don't have to make so much."
He said you really don't like my coffee? I can buy a better grade of coffee I can win you back I can save you from the dark roast!"

Probably not.

Oooh Boy. I bought a french press some time ago and used it once. But the real reason I bought it was because I had Vietnamese coffee at a restaruant.....

I have queried them over the past few visits. And dug out the fact that they use French Roast coffee with Chicory. then its sweetened with Sweetened condenced milk about two tablespoons full. Their little coffee maker takes a tablespoon of coffee and about a cup of very hot water. coffee is poured in filter goes on top somehow and hot water pouredin.

It drips down into the milk as it brews. and its maddening to wait.... But the reward is OH SO good. The coffee is stirred with the milk and the whole think is poured over ice...

While I do love iced drinks I just wanted to duplicate the flavor in my regular cup. Mind you I drink four shots of espresso for breakfast...

The french press is the largest one i have ever seen. (didnt realize it when I bought it) Holds four cups of water. I follow the directions on the can and put the required amouint of coffee... for me in. Chickory adds a whole new level of flavor. Nuked four cups of water and poured it in the coffee stirred it and put the top on. Brewing time is four to five minutes.

Now I get to explore the Sweetened condensed milk. Which I have NEVER EVER had in my cupbord. You kknow I used to hang around an ancient Russian scientist we had coffee together in the mornings. Matter of fact when he saw my truck drive in to the restaurant he would bee line across the road to join me. Funny fellow. But I listened we joked and I NEVER saw him eat ever... only coffee with sweetened condensed milk in it... and he provided the restaurant with it.

Now I know why.... OMG I made the mistake of licking the spoon. It has a nutty cheesy sweetie come eat the whole thing taste.

So French press brewed coffee with chicory. And the heaven I described.... I taste no caffeine at all but me want more.

I thought Chicory was only used to cut cost in coffee production.
