"Pour over"! hahaha.... "caffeine fiends everywhere have the Japanese to thank for this method of coffee making magic"... what a load of tripe! It never ceases to amaze me how people are able to constantly reinvent and re-badge something as simple as coffee.


It is really no different to filter/drip coffee. Only real difference is the quality of the coffee... freshly ground, and maybe even freshly roasted will of course make your coffee taste much better. Anything other than that is just hipster nonsense.

I made ?pour over? with a sock whilst on holiday in Italy


I?d taken some very good (?23 a kilo) Monmouth coffee with me and neglecting to pack my Aero Press I was somewhat stumped.


I did have a pair of new fresh Muji trainer socks with me, so took an empty water bottle, cut the top off, inverted the top to make a drixpper cone and lined it neatly with the sock.

It made a fine ?pour over? and a surprisingly bright & well filtered one at that.


Next series I ?ll be going into the Dragons Den to offer 1% of my ?SocKoffee? brand for a million quid.

    • That was very kind of you to take the cat to the vet. Did the car not stop?
    • This is a bit outside our area, but I'm posting in case .... Last night (Sat.20 Dec), around 10.30, we saw a cat hit by a car in St Norbert Road, SE4.  We took him to the out of hours vet in Beckenham, where they confirmed that he had died.  They will see if he is microchipped, and contact the owner if so.  They were very kind.   He was a lovely cat, grey and white.  He must have died very quickly.  So sorry to be the bearer of bad news 😞 The vet is Medivet in Beckenham, tel: 0208 650 2003.
    • Watching my cats over the years with foxes, I've found that foxes have totally ignored them. One exception was when a young fox hadn't seen my cat and found himself eye to eye with my cat at a distance of 1 metre. There was a stand off but the fox blinked first and my cat chased him out of the garden. So proud of her. I believe when foxes have attacked cats, the cat has been vulnerable  - old, young, ill wounded.
    • It's also possible that someone is hand feeding foxes and encouraging them by this to approach others. I have heard of foxes attacking young children (if only anecdotally) but not adults. They do seem to attack cats.
