I always get incredibly nervous every time I hit the "send it out" button for our Coffee Pulse Newsletter. Like serious nerves. Worried I missed something, or the writing isn't good enough, or I got a link wrong, etc. But... Issue 011 just went out.

Mind u, I drink a 1:1 ratio hot water to espresso drink all the time in my home, in a cortado cup, and I call it the cortado. Hence my cortarded confusion about cortados.
I'm pulling that poll I posted about the #cortado vs #americano. Because quite embarrassingly, I got the cortado drink wrong, at least as to how it's served in the US and Canada. It is usually a ratio of 1:1 espresso and ***steamed milk*** not hot water. I've been to local cafes that do it as 1:1 water and espresso, and had it that way in Europe. In Australia it's apparently a short black. So... oops.
Got some #FellowCoffee gear in today, courtesy of Whole Latte Love, a vendor. They heard that Fellow wasn't sending us products to review, so they decided to send products on their own initiative. WLL believe in the Fellow products, but also believe our fair and unbiased reviews are beneficial to consumers. I definitely will be fair, regardless of how I feel about Fellow's choices of who they think should review their products. 🙂
