Noj Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 I'd like to know who the first raging coffee addict was who decided to brew himself a cup of Joe from civet scat. Quote
Van Basten II Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Man, four threads for the same subject, someone should switch to decaf Quote
Tim McG Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 I'd like to know who the first raging coffee addict was who decided to brew himself a cup of Joe from civet scat. I don't know, but it sure as hell wasn't me. [yike!] Man, four threads for the same subject, someone should switch to decaf Now that's funny Quote
mikeweil Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 100 grams of best quality Jamaican Blue Mountain beans go for € 10 here - that's good enough for me. Quote
Tim McG Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 (edited) A pound of Sumatra or Ethiopian beans @ $15 bucks a toss is good enough for me, too. Edited July 30, 2007 by GoodSpeak Quote
RDK Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 I'd like to know who the first raging coffee addict was who decided to brew himself a cup of Joe from civet scat. Local lore says villagers discovered civet droppings made for a smooth cup of coffee centuries ago, when they were forced to work on Dutch plantations and hand over everything they picked to their colonial masters. Civets provided the only coffee the workers could scrounge for themselves. There's irony for you! Quote
Noj Posted July 30, 2007 Report Posted July 30, 2007 Whoops, guess I should've read the article. Quote
mikeweil Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 BTW - the procedure for those pre-digested beans remains me of the title of Eddie Harris' tune: Funkaroma ..... Quote
MoGrubb Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 Wonder if the same people that discovered fine coffee beans arising from civets' shit pick kernels of corn from cow shit for gourmet hominy. Quote

"Shit: It's Not Just For Breakfast Anymore" It's getting deep around here, never would've guessed it was coffee. Quote
Van Basten II Posted July 31, 2007 Report Posted July 31, 2007 It takes a new meaning to the expression, do you have good shit at your place ? Quote
