Here at the Manual, we’re total advocates of having breakfast any time of the day, in anything. There’s the famous Secret Breakfast ice cream, which is made with bourbon, caramelized corn flakes at Humphry Slocombe in San Francisco; hamburgers with bacon and eggs and Funky Buddha Brewery’s latest special release, the Maple Bacon Coffee Porter. Here’s what the folks over at this Oakland Park, Florida brewery say about it:

“Evoking a complete diner-style breakfast in a glass, Maple Bacon Coffee Porter is a complex beer with a multitude of flavors at play. It pours an opaque ebony brew with a frothy tan head. Aromas of sticky maple syrup, coffee, and cream creep forth from the glass. The mouth feel is luxuriously creamy, with layers of sweet malt, toffee, and roast giving way to waves of smoke, coffee, and salted chocolate. It finishes sticky, rich, and sweet, with the flavor of maple syrup lingering pleasantly on the tongue.”

It’s everything we love about the first meal of the day rolled up in to one delicious beer, so we can enjoy it during happy hour, or while watching the game, or to unwind after a long day at the office. And if you’re curious about Funky Buddha Brewery’s other special releases, so are we.

No espresso machine? Here’s how to make espresso anyway
Brew delicious espresso from home

Understanding how to make espresso is the first step in enjoying espresso-style beverages at home, like an Americano or a Latte. Brewing regular coffee in your drip coffee maker will suffice for a regular cup, but you'll need a different method if you seek a rich, concentrated shot of espresso.

Unlike regular drip coffee, espresso extracts intense flavors from coffee beans, resulting in a strong-tasting coffee. The easiest way to make espresso is by using an espresso maker, which uses hot water and high pressure. However, this isn't the only way to brew a great shot of espresso. Below, we'll explore how to make espresso, both with and without an espresso maker.
