    Check out this thread for more ideas on cold press;
    http://coffeesnobs.com.au/YaBB.pl?num=1233791566
    Definitely check out that thread (and the other threads linked to in it) for more info on CP/Cold Press/Cold Process coffee. One of the best things about CP is its instant availability and that you have full control over how strong you make it in the cup.

    Welcome Nina,

    We like to get to know newbies first before they make big statements about any business. Were not crazy about spammers or trolls here, so hold off for a little while. After all you could well think that Caterers blend is the best coffee in Australia too!

    The business mentioned for example doesnt rate here...

    Perhaps you might introduce yourself first at http://coffeesnobs.com.au/YaBB.pl?num=1163710607 ?

    I grew up with a shot of espresso in cold milk as iced coffee.
    And for me it was Nescafe melted with a little hot water then cold milk and sugar added.
    Also ice cubes or preferably ice cream, depending what was on hand.

    The most popular Australian dish at the moment is Spag Bol with Pad Thai nipping at its heels Im told.  ;D

    Oh boy, Im buggered after reading all that.

    Who suggested the condensed milk option? MMMMMMMMMMM! Sweeter but definitely different, ACog, but I like it. Thanks.

    With the affogato I pour the espresso on hot.

    As for the "Australian way" I am a little amused. Australia owes its "way" to the many countries who contribute to this fair nation and, as such, many "ways" pass for Australian. I grew up with a shot of espresso in cold milk as iced coffee. There was never cream on top. This was considered a travesty. A pizza is considered an Australian snack.. My point is - everyone has their way - putting a country on it only confuses things. Food crosses boundaries languages and indiosyncracies cannot.

    Regarding Gloria Jeans, not sure why youre surprised. *shrugs* I like their coffee. Regarding the drink I mentioned, all their coffee hails from the same source and is made the same way. It has to as its a franchise and deviating would constitute breach of contract and big men in dark coats carting you away.....

    Does caffeine have a recognizable taste of its own?
    Michael,

    Caffeine is intensely bitter, and ristrettos have 90% of the other coffee flavours in an espresso, and about 50% of the caffeine due to the restricted volume.

    Anyplace that I have seen that has flavoured beans or ground coffee sells their coffee "pre-staled" ;D. Im assuming that most flavoured beans are a way of hiding the fact that the coffee is basically tasteless!

    Roasted coffee is best (usually) between one and three weeks in age, and must be ground within a few minutes of making the coffee drink to preserve the very volatile oils that give coffee its real taste.

    The different production methods--espresso, ristretto, french press, cold press, filter, straight pot, moka pot, vacuum pot, percolator, etc. all produce different coffee flavours from the same beans.

    The only way to work out what you really like is research. There is plenty of information here (CoffeeSnobs), in other internet coffee sites, and at the places that make the coffee you like.

    If you decide to get involved in coffee snobbery its a long and complex journey that has as its reward great coffee a couple (or more) times a day.

    Greg
    off to have a "doppio ristretto piccolo latté"

    I have to ask another silly question.I hear the term "shot of coffee" sometimes, but have never been quite sure exactly what it is.Is it a precise measure of some sort, or just basically "enough coffee for one drink"?
    A shot of coffee is 30ml of extracted espresso.
