get away with your fucking bullshit, what about:

• put the grounds in the cup
• pour hot water over the grounds
• stirr in your condiments
• wait for the grounds to fall
• scoop out whatever is stuck to the foam on the top
• drink slowly until you see the grounds

ps: just kidding though, i use the fully automated machine at work like the others there, which puts us all into the trotskyite ca- uh… group, i guess. what i described was the prevalent preparation method in my hometown though
