And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
The reviews of this are less than stellar... lots of breakage reports, etc. I simply prefer my own way of cold brewing coffee, the way Ol' Remus of the long-gone "Woodpile Report" blog taught me. Grind coffee beans to a fine espresso grind, put the grounds into the infuser up to where the mesh tops out, seal it off and lower it into filtered water in the carafe, and refrigerate it at least 12 hours, more if you can. I try to go for 24 hours to extract every drop of coffee. This reduces the amount of acid in your coffee by about 70-75% and creates a very smooth but STRONG coffee concentrate. I consider this concentrate to be undrinkable...way too strong.
Then I measure out 1/4 cup of the concentrate into my coffee cup, top it with filtered water, and microwave the cup for 2 minutes. BEST CUPPA EVER!!
