Reading smashedmotif's journal

Dear Journal,

While picking up parts for my car at a dealership, I had the most excellent cup of coffee.

The dealership I like to visit when purchasing car parts has moved to a newly built complex. One exciting feature added to their parts department's waiting room is, a coffee maker.

The coffee maker isn't your normal coffee maker, it's a super duper machine that makes super duper coffee.

The size of this coffee maker is about the size of a miniture refridgerator, but instead of being box-like, it is more rectangular vertical-wise.

At the top of the coffee machine are two seperate containers where whole coffee beans are held. One container holds caffeinated beans and the other container holds decaffeinated beans.

To operate the machine one has to but press a few buttons. The first button is for choosing the cup size, the second series of buttons offers you a choice of caffeinated, decaffeinated or a mix of the two bean types. Included is a button fot hot water. Finally, there is the start botton.

After starting the machine the next few moments are filled with a series of sounds. First there is the whirl of the grinder, followed by a pump sound, steam sound, and then some mechanized-like clicks and shifts.

When looking behind the machine, I saw a huge water filter that had attached to it hoses, seemingly providing the water to the machine. There was an electric cord connected to the building's outlet, too.

After a few more series of clicks, pumps, steams, and what not, coffee was served into the cup I had ealier placed below.

I sipped the coffee. Savored the flavor. Sipped the coffee once again, and then nodded with approval. It was well made coffee.

The coffee was so delicious, I desired another cup. Though, I knew that one cup was one-too-many, already. So I left, thinking of when next I'd need another car part and when I'd enjoy another well made cup of coffee.

自作自受
