There are a number of establishments that do sell it, though I've yet to determine which is the best. Fortunately, it's entirely possible to obtain the necessities for making one's own, if you're quite particular about your morning brew.

[foolprove]

none of them stand out as being even a little better?

i might need the change this from "best" to "closest."

i wouldn't say i'm particular [ he totally is ] but i do actually prefer to make it myself. any ideas on where i might find that?

[netherese]

One surely will, but there's considerable research that must be done to determine such a thing! Repeated visits, for one. Consistency is very important if one is to make an accurate claim.

[Nerd.]

There are shops in port that specialize in all manner of things, and I'm certain I saw at least one dedicated to kitchenware. That seems like an excellent place to start. I could use a kettle, myself.

[foolprove]

research...

[ it's not that he's wrong, it's just. that sounds like a lot of work. MAN... nerdiness or not, it has validity. ]

kettle? for coffee or tea?

[netherese]

Both, I suppose, depending on the time of day. I will confess a strong preference for coffee. I'm not quite myself without it in the morning, so having the means to make it without having to search elsewhere may well be a service to my crewmates.

[foolprove]

you're speaking my language here

i've been completely spoiled with delicious coffee and it's ruined me forever, and i like to make it my goal to completely ruin other people for it forever, too.

wonder what the high quality beans in this world are like...

[netherese]

An excellent goal, if you ask me. There are few worse things to be spoiled on. The importance of a good cup of coffee is not to be underestimated!

I suppose if we were to find information on such things, this would be the place. Eltrut is a rather impressive port-of-call, after all.

[foolprove]

correct. absolutely. you're my new favorite person in this place.

i'll make you a cup when i get the stuff together.

[ typed Very Confidently, as if he is offering a Great Boon. ]

[netherese]

That's quite an honor! I'll wear that title with pride.

I would be happy to assist in any taste testing that needs to be done. Perhaps we could even learn a little something from one another; I'm certain we must have picked up different techniques, given our differing worlds of origin.

[It's absolutely a great boon, he Understands.]

[foolprove]

as you should

[ he super cannot tell how sincere this guy is via text but, like, he's just gonna roll with it. ]

that is actually a great idea. i have to admit i only learned about coffee within the past... year-and-a-half-ish, but it was pretty thorough. just... for the beans themselves and the one technique.

it'd be interesting to see what's different about it in different worlds.

[netherese]

[VERY, in fact.]

I'm certain such a technique could be replicated here, given time and effort. Is there specific equipment you need? There's always time for a bit of experimentation!

[Gods, he is a nerd.]
