Heres a thought that arose from reports of blackouts following recent wild winds in Sydney:
How would you manage if there was a blackout?
Remember - no espresso machine, no electric grinder, no electric kettle, no electric stove. If its an extensive blackout, you may have a long way to travel to the nearest available cafe if there is one within reasonable traveling distance.
I have a LaSorrentina Atomic,a Zass hand grinder and a gas cooktop. Sometimes I take the Zass to work but I have a wall hand grinder as well as a mortar and pestle. If necessary I could do a wok roast if I didnt have beans at hand.
I wonder how many others have thought of it and consider if it was a severe blackout where it might be several days before power is restored. Perish the thought of it ever happening but I wouldnt be surprised if some have been caught out before.
It took me a little while to nut it out to ensure I am covered.
