Filter Coffee

Last weekend we went into London and one of our goals was to leave with a new coffee maker. When looking at the selection, espresso makers dominate and what we call coffee makers in the U.S. are commonly referred to as filter coffee makers. H doesn't really get into the whole espresso thing and I need caffeine in order to work one of the machines which defeats the whole purpose. I thought it was funny that as we looked at the selection for roughly twenty minutes before making a decision that everyone that was looking at the filter coffee pots had American accents.
