2 to 1 Espresso thread

I was finishing up my day at work and thinking how many cups of Espresso I drink and compared to the assorted Bong and Bat hits
I partake in daily. 2 to 1 Herb to espresso ratio.

There is a beautiful Espresso Machine at work, I have one at home as well. With the myriad of coffee houses now even the drive to and from work can be drive thru caffeinated.

Nice way to begin the day. Check the Garden, a few shots o Espresso
and a bong hit.

Yep plus Greatful Dead on XM

I take my coffee as serious as I do my 'erb. I don't drink espresso daily, but I do love it. Black coffee, dark roast is my true love. I grind my beans in a burr grinder, and make it by the pot. My ratio is roughly 2.5 pots of coffee to 2.5 grams of bud per day. I smoke out of a bat too, lol. This coffe/bat combo may become the new, old stoner stereotype. The youngsters won't listen to us because we're just a bunch of old dudes with a cup of coffee in one hand and a one hitter in the other - what the hell do we know, lol.

My sentiments exactly.
Although I'm prone to bong hits as well.

8 single espressos and perhaps a double at Starchucks.
Lost count of Hits after 5. I forgot to count
funny I remember the espresso

As someone who smoked cigarettes for 30 years, I can't really handle all the caughing from bong hits...however, a bong in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other could be nice accessories to a half open bath robe and black socks. That's a good look, it would make my son uncomfortable enough to not want to hang around and smoke my smoke maybe, lol!

Hey, Levitation. Do you have a favorite espresso bean/blend? When I make espresso at home I usually just use the same beans as I do for my coffee only finer grind. It works OK but just OK.

2 cups of coffee in the morning.

Wish I could drink more. Only time that really works is if I am doing something really physical, like swimming in the ocean if there is a storm.

Bong hits ... about every hour and a half from 8 AM on.

Especially if I'm doing a task that is repetitive. Like puttying and sanding and painting kind of work.

In Spain they mix in a Brandy on top of an espresso, 50/50.... awesome hit, called a Carahillio

Even better still, use alcohol with THC in it for a 3 way high, still experimenting with this, the alcohol(95%) turns the espresso a but milky looking

Unusual morning where I had less opportunity to get stoned. In on 4 singles and a double
and only 2 bong hits.

Also unusual I was smoking commercial weed. Some White Widow supposedly.
The high was very stoney.

Sneaking out for a bowl soon.

This Cold Brewing Coffee is getting better and better!

You soak the grounds for a certain time, depending on how strong you want it. It makes a coffee "concentrate" when you filter it...

If you soak the grounds for 12 hours, you can make a 3 to 1 coffee. One part coffee concentrate to three parts water...

I soaked the grounds for 24 hours this time. The flavor is fucking beautiful! Ive never had such outstanding and enjoyable flavor from coffee in my life!

It got way stronger! Im drinking it at a 5 to 1 ratio and am crawling out of my skin...

So the savings will really be adding up with this 5 to 1 ratio. I buy Death wish coffee from amazon...

Personally I would love to try some coffee roasting. Until then Corporate ILLY for the win.
At least it is very consistent. Im on my 3rd with no weed to counter balance. Must change the ratio
