Probably not.... But I couldn't find it anywhere on the net...
Here's the story-
My Coffee machine broke (Breville BES840, now replaced under warranty).. The pump gave way & couldn't push the water through the group handle.
The steamer still worked.
I have a Vietnamese drip filter for these emergency moments.
I did the normal thing, about 15g in the drip filter, filled with hot water then waited... In the waiting I kind of forgot about it, once I came back the coffee was cold :-(
Instead of micro-waving I decided to use my still working steamer on the BES840 to heat the coffee!
What happened next amazed me, the black coffee stretched (kind of like milk does).. & was left with a great smooth coffee with tones more flavour & a huge Crema.
I have been doing this a few times a week & it's now my preferred way of having a long black.
Just wondering if anyone else has done this? & What style of coffee its called...? I guess there could be a heap of different variations but the core would be steaming a drip style black coffee.
If you haven't tried it & your a black coffee fan, give it a go!!
