Do you really know your Coffee Maker?
Most people think there is only one type of coffee maker. Many times the automatic coffee maker or espresso machine are the most commonly known. Of course, the choices vary with with so many choices on the market. Machines range from 1 cup coffee makers all the way to 14 cup coffee makers.
The automatic drip coffee maker is probably the most used coffee maker. This coffee maker works a little different producing coffee by heating water that in turn runs over the coffee grounds. Hot water steeps through the coffee and the filter in the bin and drips into an awaiting pot or carafe. Most of the time the coffeemakers have heating pads on the bottom to keep the coffee warm. Some models come with a thermal carafe which allows the coffee drinker to brew a pot of coffee right into the carafe for coffee on the go.
Replacing The Pot In Your Coffee Machine
For all those coffee addicts out there, there is no worse feeling than breaking your coffee pot and being unable to have that crucial early morning cup. Non-coffee drinkers may see that as an exaggeration, but honestly, if one of them had to deal with me first thing without a cup of coffee, they would be running out themselves to buy me a new pot! I can cope with breaking my hairdryer, for that matter I can get into work without a shower if absolutely necessary, but deprive me of my coffee and you might just find me in tears on the kitchen floor.
A few years ago it was surprisingly tricky to find a replacement coffee pot. I tried it once and was astonished at how few of the major stores actually kept them in stock even though they sold complete coffee makers. I finally tracked down my prize in the sixth shop I tried, an out of the way family run store, kind of a last resort but evidently the place I should have started my search. Luckily my boss accepted my excuse that the car had broken down on the way to the office. Even with my known coffee addiction I didn’t think a coffee pot hunt justified turning up to work at nearly lunchtime.
At the time there was no internet, or at least I hadn’t heard of it, never mind bought a computer to access it. Now searching for your replacement coffee pot is a much easier exercise as you can purchase one directly from the supplier of your coffee machine, or another reputable website.
There are just a few things to bear in mind. Firstly your pot will take some time to arrive, so prepare a contingency plan for that period; there really are some good instant varieties out there you know.
Secondly, coffee pots have a nasty habit of getting broken during shipping if they are not properly packed, so do make sure you get it from the supplier, or prepare for a disappointment when you open the package and can’t get a refund.
Thirdly be sure that the pot you order is exactly the right one for your coffee machine, particularly if you have specific functions such as a pause feature. If your original pot is discontinued ask the advice of your supplier, and if you purchase a slightly different pot make sure you supervise the first brew to make sure there are no problems.

COFFEE HOUR – There’s a Secret in Everyone… MV
Main Opening theme for my newest fiction, “Coffee Hour”. A compilation of videos. (Not that great cuz I used Windows Movie Maker quickly)
::INTRODUCING THE STORY::
Sometimes life can be cruel enough to abandon you.
It feels like even your soul has run away. But really, it must’ve been you running away from the truth.
There are so many secrets behind the mind, so many unknown mysteries behind the identity.
Trust is almost impossible to take in. Love is almost impossible to feel.
There are dirty faults, betrayal, and loneliness.
I think you know it too.
So I’m wondering if we can just sit down today.
Talk to each other.
Smile like everything has been fine right from the start.
Take a sip of the fine coffee sitting on the table.
Smell the sensational wavy steam from the cup.
Pause a small moment.
And then tell each other…what secrets lie hidden in our hearts.
It’s another coffee hour. Let’s make it last a little longer today.
NOTE: Sorry guys, I quit writing after around 50-ish page because I absoutely have no time to keep continuing it! I have everything planned out perfectly and I sincerely wish I could finish it! But time is seriously eating me up, sorry!

The creation of Cramen
Cramen is a combination of Coffee and Ramen. It is one of those things that happens at an anime convention when you are over tired.
This was filmed at Anime Boston 2008 at 2AM on Saturday night.
To make Cramen is a simple process.
1)A coffee maker. A one cup machine was used to make the first Cramen.
2)Coffee. A given.
3)Cup ramen. A given.
4)This is optional. We preferred it with cream and sugar. Two creams and two sugars, to be specific.

Hi, how you guys doing?, here’s my rendition of Lady GaGa Paparazzi, i’m in the remix mood, i integrate samples from Sony acid … sorry for the “not so good” quality
, if you want to know how i mix all this…here are the steps :
1. “metronome help!”…hehe, i’m not really good with beat so i make the drum sample first
2. live “1 take only” video + sound recording using windows movie maker. so you’ll see couple of mistakes here and there, but i keep it because its a live recording.
3. export the sound to Sony Acid
4. add instrument samples such as bass, piano, etc + sound efects
5. add backing vocals + sound efects
6. render the audio as wave file
7. export to windows movie maker, synchronize it with the video
8. add movie transition, tittles, etc
9. render the video as wmv
10. grab a cup of coffee and snack….upload your video!! hehe
well that’s how i did it, its still not a great quality recording sound because i dont have a good mic, i only use my integrated laptop mic…pretty lousy for capturing bright sound. but that’s the best i can do for now… hopefully i can really do a real recording in a studio
)
thanks for watching guys, i really appreciate it
Rock On!!,
