Had to look up cullion
I stand by my comments
Americans don’t get coffee.
They don’t get too much anything
For example, worthy presidential candidates.

Enjoy your Italian food with American tomatoes and flavored with American peppers…
You know, it seems to me that except for the French, pretty much most of the western world’s cuisine is completely dependent on foods that originated in the Americas…

Criticizing our coffee for being too big?
It's just the world envious of our abundance. -

I made a mistake and ordered a dopio espresso this morning at a coffee shop where everything comes in paper cups. Coffee is fine in those paper cups but espresso? It changes the taste. I swear.

Yes a paper cup would absolutely change the taste of an esspresso. This becomes inevitable if you smell an empty paper cup and then a ceramic one. The paper one has a smell. Which inevitably affects taste.
This morning I am drinking a black 20 oz french press coffee from my favorite stainless steel insulated mug.

I can’t drink coffee from stainless steel. I’m one of those that pick up an odor from stainless steel that affects the taste. Oddly, I love water in stainless steel thermoses.

Americans invented electricity too, but it still takes longer to boil a kettle over here than some world wars have lasted. It's no wonder you've never figured out you're supposed to boil the freaking water.

Why use electricity when we have perfectly good natural gas to boil water?
-
Since we don’t boil our meats, we don’t find boiling our water as necessary as you Brits. I’ll never understand why we Americans turn our noses up at adding the delicious flavor of water to ham or beef…

I've seen what happens to Americans who have natural gas. They feel compelled to leave it on while they test out their handguns.
You've never lived until you've used a 250V, 13A electric kettle.

The electric kettle is a lot faster. Espresso is fantastic stuff. But if you want an energy drink try Cuban coffee.
I’ve never tried an energy drink either.

As a discriminating foodie, I can taste the difference between water heated with gas and water heated with electricity.

I like a mix of the two, with gas heated water on top and electric heated water on bottom.

Just a cautionary tale...
I worked this weekend at my little rural hospital gig. Five cases of heat exhaustion through the ED.
FIVE.
Only mad men and English men go out in the midday sun. And drink your gatorade (or equivalent).
Here's what I know from personal experience...When doing heavy work, we used to start early at 7am. If the crew had water, we were shot by noon. Absolutely whipped. If gatorade was subbed for water, we could usually work for another hour or hour&a half after noon break.
In heat, it makes that much difference.

Fascinating. 'Lytes are good, eh?

You're a philistine. A true connoisseur would microwave one third of the water.
