My coffee machine broke last night and is being sent away for repair and they are giving me a loan machine when they collect it. The trouble is they can't collect it until Wednesday next week.
I'm struggling already without it. I made coffee in a French press this morning but it's just not the same  .
Is it too early to have a gin and tonic instead? |

"Vodka and red bull  "
I can't drink red bull. The caffeine in it makes me physically sick but for some weird reason copious cups of coffee is fine.
I tried a cup of instant coffee last night and it was vile - I couldn't drink it so had a gin instead |

most fundamental aspects |
I get around the issue of my machine potentially breaking by having multiple back ups.
An Aeropress - check them out. Great for travelling with and make a coffee you would think was made by a barista.
A “spare” machine - It’s a Krups and if it wasn’t for my main machine also having a timer to let me wake up to coffee, it would be my front line machine.
Vietnamese drip filters - ideal for making iced coffee when the weather is warmer.
One of those plunger cups - last resort, as it makes coffee a bit like a French press and gets grounds mixed in at the bottom of the cup.

"Just make sure you descale the machine regularly and it will prolong the life of it 
I was descaling it last night when it packed up "
As bugger....hope it wasn't a delongi  |
