I'm trying out a new diet, and when I follow it, no caffeine. It's been almost 2 weeks without coffee. I was encouraged this morning to have a cup. It's almost as if I forgot how to make it! ?
I started by inserting the coffee filter and adding the grounds. I use Chock Full O'Nuts. What's your preference? ?
Then turned it on. It beeped at me. I slapped it. I don't speak coffee maker language. I had no clue what it was trying to tell me. I turned it off, then back on. It hissed and beeped. I'm obviously pissing this thing off! So, I unplugged it. I don't have much knowledge with gadgets. The only other option left is putting it in rice. ? So I needed this to work. Nope. Now it smells like it's overheating. Seriously pissed off coffee pot. ?
Before grabbing the rice (the last trick up my sleeve) I do a more thorough check. I forgot to water it. ? Air coffee isn't a thing.
I add water. A huge puff of steam comes up from under the filter, sending dry coffee grounds in my eyes and up my nose!!! ?
Lesson learned. Don't piss off the coffee maker. It'll get the last laugh.
