Canned air is great

Canned air is great for flushing out the new coffee grinder, although the first blast does tend to spray grounds all over the counter. Should've picked up another couple of cans when Frys had them on sale last weekend. Didn't think I would use it very often when I got some for blasting the dust off the fins of the Athlon heat sink. Hopefully the stuff doesn't leave cancer-causing residues. Of course, there's probably plenty of cancer-causing stuff in the coffee already. It's amazing what kind of funky organic molecules a little roasting can create. It's kinda silly to spend almost an order of magnitude more money for the grinder than for the coffee maker, but anything that reduces the amount of french-press leftover sludge on the bottom of the cup is a good thing.
