I see this forum allows people to ask questions and seek advice around coffee. You can learn some info here but your not going to learn about everything. Great knowledge comes with time, practice and experience.
I am sure we were newbies learning about coffee at some stage, maybe your past the newbie stage and somewhere between a newbie and an expert. I am sure at some stage you may have asked a question which an expert thought was pathetic....so just think back and put yourselves in their shoes.
If you dont like the newbie question, dont respond and move on. Some people what to provide feedback to help others. Thats partly why i am a manager now....to give something back.
Well sorry for the little rant but i though its important to say we were all newbies asking simple questions at one stage and by asking these it helped you get better at making, brewing and drinking coffee.
Isnt that the more important thing....helping others enjoy something that you love as well.....coffee!!!


soooo, we join CS, plead our case telling everyone who is prepared to listen they know what they are doing, but (this is an unusual problem that has me completely stumped
