Thats a nice Global - how long did it take before the first time you cut yourself using it?
Haha - you got yours outta the way right outta the box! I have the same one and it took me about two months but it was a nasty mf'er, almost needed stitches on my left thumb. Needless to say, I'm way more careful now when I use it.Hah. The ONLY time was a little nick when I was unwrapping it for the first time! My brother gave us two as wedding gifts. They're pretty great!
I placed the order minutes after Chickpea made the recommendation. Got a "not in stock" email from Amazon, and all these fulfillment status update emails (their way of saying don't cancel it's coming). I called them, product is made in Holland or Finland and now there are various models with carafes, dare I say thermoses, Americans prefer those, those are in stock, blah. Now, I got an email saying product in, and should be delivered by September 1st.
And if anyone wants a colored one they are about twice as expensive on eBay (all colors you can dream of, German seller) or $60 more from http://www.jlhufford.com/
Will post a pic as soon as I get it and have made a cup or four cups...
This thread reeks of pretentious wank
And you reek of white trash.
And you reek of white trash.
I'd rather be white trash than a tiresome coffee snob.
Yeah, you're right—a beverage regularly consumed by about a third of the entire global population IS pretty elite.
(And don't even get me started on people using KNIVES to chop food! Talk about snobbish...)
Oh come off it love, it's blatant that you and a few of you one here buy into this hipster style living with your skinny lattes and flat mochas whilst reading Ghost Milk on your iPad. It's the same as the craft beer scene, dicks with check shirts and beards. Nobody gave a f*** about it 15 years ago and people didn't give a shit until Starbucks became popular.

the Kopi Luwak, Barista style coffee, forking out hundreds of dollars just for a cup of f***ing coffee.
I'll bet you've got one of those japanese Santoku knives.
You really are clueless. I blame it on your habitus. Haha.
James Bond is fond of expensive expresso machines. This was filmed in 1973, in England. Great coffee has been brewed and enjoyed throughout the world long before the American company, Starbucks, came onto the scene.
Buy a La Pavoni machine here.

James Bond isn't real
you utter f***ing moron.
Plus there's no such thing as a habitus. It's another one of your piss poor buzzwords coined from your ebook whilst your love eggs buzz in your dry, fetid old clam.
A few of my favorite coffee-related movie scenes...
Those are great! The second one is a riot.
Airplane is one of those rare gems of a movie where just about every line is quotable.
Twin Peaks is what made me want to start drinking coffee. It just seemed like the beverage for people who want to get shit done. Of course, that's the same reason why I can't drink it anymore. I started drinking coffee daily 21 years ago and never looked back. I don't do moderation well—I'm an "all or none" kinda gal, and my body can't handle the screwed up sleep patterns anymore. I'm trying to learn how to sleep (and wake) like a normal person, and caffeine had to take a hike.
I have a good friend going through the exact same thing. Is a huge coffee aficionado (addict?). He gave it up cold turkey, three weeks ago, and is now starting to be able to get to bed before 2 am.
I have two cups in the morning and that is it for the rest of the day.
How long since you gave it up? Does your husband still drink it? Have you tried decaffeinated?
