Today's PSA

I just found out "How to brew a good cup of coffee" [video].
Are these guys nuts? Ain't gonna happen. So I dug-out a clipping from the Wall Street Journal from a couple years ago about how "coffee expert" Mike Sivetz does it -- and the way to approximate his method without special equipment:
Soak overnight a pound of freshly-roasted finely-ground beans in two quarts of lukewarm filtered water. Next morning, drain-off the extract, filtering through cheesecloth. Add 2 FL. OZ. extract to 5 FL. OZ. boiling water.... and drink up.
DISCLAIMER: No, never tried this.

UPDATE -- January 15, 2010 -- 3:04 PM
Sounds like nobody else has has tried that video method, either!
