coffee-maker.jpgForget Mr. Coffee, if you wanna sip a real cup of joe then you want to get your hands on this $20,000 Halogen-Powered Coffee Maker.

Featured at the Blue Bottle Cafe in San Francisco, California, this coffee maker is the only halogen-powered model in the US, which was actually imported from Japan.  The brewing takes about 45 to 90 seconds & apparently the flavors are, “kaleidoscopic”, so said one barista at the cafe.  Well, I always need a good excuse to fly to Cali….

    Bah. Vacuum pot brewers have been around since the 1950s.

    I went yesterday. We drank three pots between the four of us; it was very smooth and completely cranked us out.

    And please stop calling our state “Cali.” And our town “Frisco.” It sounds retarded.

    I’m putting this on my wishlist.

    I hope my husband approves.
