Excellent call, Lump. Darn right it's food. But who would expect less from a man named after a sludgy old vacpot? Amen, brother. Amen. We suffer for our art - "gritting" our teeth, as it were, for a cuppa joe.

I can only guess at the feeling. I have a couple of Mukkas, but it isn't hardly the same thing.

As it was an original model, a bit of geekery had to be performed - sawing the pipe off to a new angle to make it brew for the right amount of time, but other than that, great. until someone tried to use it as a normal kettle, it boiled over, and died. That was rubbish.
