Natasha offers reasonably priced gift sets (coffee, ibrik and demitasse cups), brass ibriks in all sizes and, at a discount, scratched or dented ibriks not suitable for gift sets. I have a couple on the way; I let you know if they are the real deal or not.

Sounds good; I'm going to go with the nice copper ones at Sweet Maria: http://www.sweetmarias.com/prod.brewers.ibrik.shtml Something about copper appeals to me. We'll have to do a threat-down on copper vs. brass

So, in looking at the Zass turkish mills, I'm thinking having one of those around might be a nice way to get the fresh cardamon into the mix without fouling my Rocky. The turkish Zass mills at both SM and Natashas are *not* cheap...I may have a go around here for something less expensive.

Pretty soon, I may have more coffee gadgetry than cigar gadgetry
