Squirrel-Powered Grinder



Green coffee?  You know how eager we are to find ways to reduce our carbon footprint,* so we recently completed our new coffee grinder.  The cast-iron mechanism comes from Lee Valley (a company I love) and the box was a quick and easy project.

* I may not be using this expression correctly, as I really do not know what it means.

I am told that coffee made from freshly ground grounds is much, much better.  But who can stand the high pitched scream of electric coffee grinders?  The action on this grinder is smooth enough that you won't break a sweat getting your cup of coffee ready.

Come on by for a visit and enjoy a very fresh cup of coffee.  One caveat: I don't drink coffee at all and Theresa only takes decaf; so, bring your own beans if you want regular.  We can, however, provide the squirrels . . .

  1. I always thought reducing our carbon footprint meant breathing out less.

    The grinder is beautiful. Now you can play "Long Winter" from Little House on the Prairie.
