So I'll fight this for a bit to see if I can get my beans ground properly before picking up some Greek or Arabic ground from the store. I like bitter coffee, but that cup pushed the bounds a bit. I wonder if the grind would be part of that issue. Also, I forgot what I was drinking by the end and swigged the last sip. Yeah, don't do that. Mmm... crunchy coffee in the morning... I should have strained that last sip between my teeth. :)
Anyway, that's something to build on.
