The ever-delicious, always-obsessive roasters at Blue Bottle Coffee Co. finally opened their little cafe in Mint Plaza, in the financial district. I can't wait to try a cup of their one-cup-at-a-time, hand-stirred drip coffee, made on their $20,000 siphon bar coffee maker, imported from Japan. Something about people truly mastering their craft that really restores faith in working for the love of it. James Freeman allegedly practiced stirring with his handmade bamboo paddle for weeks before he made his first pot. Now that's love.
At last, a $20,000 Cup of Coffee
