The fluid at the top of the tube was a thin, tannish substance.
The middle third appeared relatively normal. But the bottom
third appeared a good substitute for vantablack.
After drinking the bottom third, I could almost visualize the
individual molecules as they raced around the next pot.

This has been discussed here before. I believe the esteemed [mb] mentioned the possibility of trying it at work. |
|
|
I did, in fact, try it, and can report success. A large single espresso can be made quite successfully in a 50ml centrifuge tube. |
|
|
I can't quite visualise how this works - can you
describe the experimental set-up? |
|
|
Put espresso coffee grounds in 50ml tube, add water, microwave to brew. Then spin, drink supernatant. |
|
|
That's a bit crude, isn't it ? Are you too idle to put up an IV ? |
|
|
Not being borg, we don't typically maintain open IV ports,
despite the obvious advantages. |
|
|
Someone is asking for a slap. |
|
|
Coffee snobs are very keen to pay a lot of money for
esoteric coffee-brewing equipment. I'm sure you could
make a lot of money selling lab bench centrifuges rebadged
as coffee makers. |
|
|
Unfortunately scientists are also willing to pay a lot of money for basic lab equipment, so the rebadging is unlikely to be lucrative. |
|
|
On the other hand, rebadging a regular domestic freezer as a "scientific" freezer allows you to increase the price about five-fold. I shit you not. |

|
So, a combination of a Paradoxurus hermaphroditus, a percolator, and a centrifuge ? |
|
|
If borg is a collective hegemonic swarm, then a
lower-case is perfectly appropriate. |
|
|
Isn't the Borg an ethnic group of ethnicities? and must be capitalised. |
|
|
Iran might make better coffee for all of us. How they control their new coffee ability, is something all countries will probably have to go through in the future. |
|
|
You wouldn't capitalize a herd of cattle, would you? Or a
mischief of rats? |
|
|
That's more due to mankind's superiority complex. Probably the Mice or the Dolphins. |
|
|
Well, have the b(B)org chosen to assimilate any of them? |
