Here’s some wildly thrilling news for coffee dorks: The $11,000 machine that Slate posits could “broaden the way we think about coffee” is coming to 4th Avenue. 3B, the soon-to-open cafe on Carroll and 4th (nee “Brooklyn Bean”), will have a Clover coffee maker. The luxe machine makes cups one at a time and is a rare lil’ caffeinated bird. A story in the Times a couple months ago said there are only about 200 of them in shops across the world, though their cult status is quickly becoming more mainstream (there are a few already in NYC). 3B’s espresso machine is no slouch, either, and its owners say they spent months selecting the beans they’re going to use. The business, which’ll also serve some light food, should be up and running in about a week and a half.

Wrong.
I’m sorry, but do we need an 11 thousand dollar machine to make one cup of coffee at a time? How utterly disgusting is that!? Why not a coffee machine which runs on burning five dollar bills?
What a putrid reminder of the grossest impulses of our society. Yuck. Double yuck. And yeah – it should be stolen and melted down into something useful like pitchforks to take out the gentry class.

You’re right–there ARE a lot of brokers out there!

When talking about a Ferrari costing 200K, why even bring up a Hyundai costing 16K?
Right?
the projects.
What are GH considered then?
According to everything I’ve heard, they are in Boreum Hill.
Clover?
Is this a St. Patty’s Day gag?
Bodega coffee is $1.

Gowanus Houses and Smith Street are also separated by just one block, and yet GH isn’t considered prime Boerum Hill, let alone fringe Boerum Hill…
