The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

Ah, mine has a threaded insert that comes up out of the coffee bed and the bit that sits on top the grounds screws onto it; no flipping. I did screw it down too tight on one attempt, which jammed it up and the water didn't flow through.

Oh, yeah, I've seen that style. I expect it works much better than what I have. Maybe I'll pick one up some day to give it another try.
