1:3 — Cloudy Christmas Birds

Edition No. 93

1 Fun Thing

In the spirit of the holiday season, we thought everyone should know that you can actually mail a letter to Santa’s postal code in Canada. The address is — Santa Claus, North Pole, H0H 0H0, Canada. And word has it, he even writes back!

3 Coffee Facts

1. Weber Workshops just launched their first ever brewer called the BIRD, short for Brew In Reverse Direction. It looks a lot like a French Press but in fact uses a piston actuated vacuum to suck water through a puck of coffee and create a rich and complex brew.

2. Have you noticed that paper filtered pour over coffee starts out looking very clear but gets cloudier as time passes. We still don’t know exactly why this happens but it’s fascinating none the less.

3. The DF range of grinders are manufactured by a company in China and sold all over the world under various brands names like Turin, G-Iota and so on. The unbelievably low prices made them explode in popularity and while the earlier versions felt cheap and clunky they’ve come a long way. We even got to test and review the DF64 Gen 2 and DF83 V2!
