Unfortunately - you’d probably hate it. It still tastes coffee-like, just less than the Classic. There’s less bitterness and acridity overall, but that doesn’t mean it’s a completely transformed beverage, if that makes any sense?

Hi - not sponsored, sorry to disappoint. I was genuinely shocked at this stuff, and for a coffee in-a-pinch sort of thing, I really do believe it’s a contender. Not for right this second, but later if coffee becomes more scarce as a crop. Read more

I was totally hoping you’d see this...

I’m so sorry you have to deal with customers like that! You probably don’t hear it enough, but I appreciate what you do.

9/20/21

I really appreciate your insider knowledge on this stuff! It’s cool to learn about.

9/16/21

Mine is in the mail, please report back with your experience!

While I have the same problem, I looked closely at the roller and found out there’s a packet opening section on the device that slices it for you!

Thanks for the catch. I noticed shortly after what my mistake was and promptly forgot to fix it, because I am a clown. Read more

Wait did they glue the English muffins to the top of that sandwich maker for that pic? If they did, that’s hilarious.

Whoa. I guess everybody loves chicken noodle soup! I guess I don’t have the popular opinion...dangit.

Okay, all of this makes sense. I don’t know if mine is older but it doesn’t beep at me, though. I got it a long time ago! I’ll keep this all in mind and have been thinking about whippin’ it back out, I just need English muffins, which I forgot to get the last time I was out.

Yeah, that fact is acknowledged at the end. I am totally able-bodied, so the typical egg prep isn’t an issue for me (which I am grateful for, daily). However, also as someone who’s fine with mobility, I can’t conceive of the idea that these things help that much. Like the Eggstractor, holy crap was that thing hard to… Read more

Have you ever tried Chao? It’s not for pizza, it comes in slices, but I could eat that stuff all day.

I can totally see that. I think all fledgling careers have their missteps right at the beginning, and I grew to love what he would go on to do. A Cook’s Tour is this look backwards in time for someone so many people loved, and remembering that he too made what we’d consider missteps kinda reminds me of my own… Read more

I see you, Simon - I think there’s some funny business going on, I can’t see that comment in our system anywhere, including the grays. If you see this happening again somewhere, let me know again and I can do some further investigation.

I’m sorry about the joint issues. Talking about stuff like that isn’t easy in any regard.

8/5/21

Oh man. Monster mistake on my part and thanks for pointing that out. My English degree never did help with my sense of geography. Read more

Thank you for telling us! This makes more sense. I think that goes to show that it’s hard for us to read into details like that in a press release because sometimes it’s hard to understand.

I was reaching back to when I was a kid. It was literally the only thing people would understand, and when you say it a dozen times, you default to what works, you know? Plus then I’d have to brace for the fact that people would call it “weird” right afterwards so at some point I just stopped wanting to bother.
