new coffee kit
okay, so the coffee suitcase nuke kit is a little bit unweildy, and it takes about 12 minutes to make a cup o joe. that's too long.
so i assembled a new kit with different gear. simpler, more portable, smaller, and faster: about 8 minutes for a cup, including cleaning.

open : left to right : #2 manual drip cone, #2 swissgold filter, beans, zassenhaus turkish mill (kickass!), scoop, bodum mini-ibis (takes up too much room, ugh).
i dig it, even though i still haven't gotten the grinder "dialed in" for drip coffee. it's designed for a turkish grind, which is much much much finer - still getting sludge in the cup. oh well.
