An exploration of ultracoffee, radiation safety, and more often than not a beer or two.
I do my best to compose these posts with the appropriate level of insobriety fueling me. I like to think that it allows me to summon the correct creativity needed to share More Awesome. In this case, it is the vitriol directed at organizations Doin’ It Wrong. This morning I just shipped a replacement Stein …

For everyone back in Merrie Olde Englande (well, international in general) the shipping for Black Blood of the Earth has always been prohibitive. Prohibitivr to the point that the postage almost costs as much as the product in some cases, as BBotE must ship express internationally. The per liter shipping price improves with the larger …
So, the folks at Giant Bomb and Tested.com got their hands on a respectable supply and variety of Black Blood of the Earth a couple of weeks ago and, so it seems, they’ve been hoarding it for this day. Sometime around noon they began their 24 hour Oktoberkast podcastathon thingee in support of Child’s Play …
I am inordinately proud of this review of the 750ml bottle of Kona BBotE. I can only hope that BBotE causes similar adventure in your life: The Kona is delicious, and even opening the corked bottle is a tactile experience. It felt like breaking the seal on some potent elixir. I fed my housemate …
Rather than a Q&A, I have answers to questions I didn’t know existed from a couple of astute Test Subjects that need sharing. First, from Germany I have this fascinating missive: I just liberated my shipment from the German customs office, and experienced something you might be interested in. I declared BBotE as “coffee extract”, …
Moving on to happier topics, I try to invoke Professor Farnsworth whenever possible as I am a Platinum Club Elite Member of the Angry Dome and the Chamber of Understanding. The first case to the Pimp of DC/Baltimore, Eric, should be arriving tomorrow. As more than a few folks have asked when the Capitol Wasteland …
Yes, there are fresh batches of Death Wish, Retiro, Colombia, and Mundo Nuvo up to tell you about and the Ambassador of Greater Los Angeles is resupplied, but I want to have a bit of a rant and it starts six years ago with a chocolate bar in England. Let’s see how many people I can …
After roughly two weeks of maximum output BBotE production, I can finally come up for some air and share some tinkering that I’ve been doing and respond to some requests. For folks who ended up waiting more than a week for me to finally get something out your way, I’d like to apologize for that …
SHORT VERSION: Go here, figure out a way to buy ALL THE THINGS. You’re welcome. DISCLOSURE: I get nothing out of this beyond my friends being able to write more comics and me being able to read them. So, yes, it is entirely selfish on my part. For those of you new to my rambling, …
Labor Day Weekend is upon us which means, more importantly, Oktoberfest is almost here. Accordingly, the 2nd annual Oktoberfest 10% off coupon is kicking in Today. Use the code “EINPROSIT” to enjoy a discount on all your Stein of Science or weapons grade coffee needs. The coupon will run through the end of the Oktoberfest, …
There have been enough/sufficient repetition of questions that another Q&A is in order. Without further ado, The Questions! Question 1: Why do you only offer the special production stuff in 750ml bottles? Why can’t I get a Death Wish Jug of Madness? Answer: 4L of Death Wish BBotE?!? I worry about you guys sometimes. Honestly, …
In the process of firing everything back up in the aftermath of WorldCon 2011 in Reno. More importantly, I have expanded production capacity to a stunning 9L/day starting tomorrow. If this doesn’t sound impressive, well, thhhhpppbbbt. I’m impressed and it’s also necessary to get a head of the backlog in light of the quantity and …

Since I’ve had a few questions about it recently, I though I’d lay it out again with an addition that I realized I’d never actually mentioned before but is important as some folks are getting close to MAXIMUM HONOR. So, your BBotE can be refilled. Keep a hold of the shipper that I send the …
NOTE: People in Ireland who’ve been haranguing me about the expense of shipping BBotE, be sure to read all the way through. Things have been somewhat quiet here lately as I do my best to keep up with the DEADLY RADIATIONS and an unprecedented level of Black Blood of the Earth demand, courtesy of a surprisingly large …
The Pimpstress of Greater Los Angeles had a brilliant idea last night that makes me sad to be 400 miles away from her. I remember when I dosed any brave souls that were willing with BBotE at her wedding last year. Fire and puppetry were already on the docket, but I feel the BBotE contributed …
