His post was brilliant, yet, frighteningly... close to the truth when it comes to espresso purists. Vacuum cleaners are great for cleaning grinders and espresso machines - I would imagine a mini-vac would be great for personal machines.

On a side note, I did go through the Starbucks drive through that's a block away from our old Starbucks, BTD. And I got a cup of coffee - which, like I said, is about all I can get from them - well, maybe iced coffee and tea. Sure, specialty coffee drinks are what they do best, but I'm still unconvinced on the quality.

I'll still go there, simply because it's convenient. And Peet's won't be getting drive-thrus any time soon... Actually, a Peet's drive-thru would really make life awesome for me...
