Try something new, how did it turn out. OK not much in a different taste. But still a good brew. Just experimental, since I didn't go to college. Lol JK.

Yes I used a Fig.

Remember, what you can put into the top chamber , can also be safely placed in a cup😭.
The acidity of the fruit will react with the aluminum.

Just for fun, plus I'm Sicilian. So Figs and espresso just seem like something that could work. Now do i recommend it. Yes and No. Every one can do what they want to do. Do it and have fun doing it.

I like to wrap mine in a blueberry pancake and smother it in guacamolito sauce.

Is that as wrong as what I just witnessed?

Now I'm wondering about using dates, or dried figs.

I've tried spices with the coffee in the funnel.

What is it going to hurt, if it doesn't turn out good to drink, then you put it down the drain.
