   Small world. Do you still visit? I'll go to that peet's every so-often and it   
   looks the same as it did years ago. I used to stop at berkeley just for   
   cheeseboard pizza and philz coffee. Philz is now franchised out and in   
   sacramento where I live.   
      
   If passing through I'll stop in berkeley for cheeseboard though. That's pizza's   
   hella dope.

   I use the stovetop type where you add water to the bottom, the grounds in the   
   trap, then the steam works its way up to the top where you pour it out. Found   
   it at Marshall's for, like, $5.
