    Wish I could be in the market for that but had a busy and expensive day. Took my red convertible to cars and coffee a little over a week ago, put a for sale sign in the window while I walked around. Got a call as I got home, showed the car on Sunday and he brought me cash on Monday (felt like a drug dealer taking a wad of cash to the bank!).

    Fast forward to today and after about 6 weeks of hard work searching the interwebs, driving “well taken care of“ junk I put a deposit down on the new convertible. On the plus side have enough points to get free airfare to Alabama and going to inspect and likely drive it home on Monday. Its white, will post pics when its home in my garage (nope, not a corvette or even a sports car—going the luxury road cruiser route).

    Just caught up on the banter while having some pasta & meat sauce for dinner with a glass of nice red wine.

    Well, tried the metal keurig basket thing. It's okay. A little weak for me and without paper to filter the coffee, you get coffee oils that you don't normally get (like when using a french press). It wasn't bad, I just don't see myself using it a lot. Will say it was better than most of the coffee out of K-cups and would be cheaper I believe than the K-cups as well.
    I just tried mine out and I like it more than paper. I got a stronger coffee taste that I enjoy.

    Made a cup earlier tonight with the metal one. Coffee was a little weak but maybe I didn't use enough or it was the generic "donut shoppe blend" I found at the back of pantry....

    It didn't explode all over the inside of the machine so that is a plus!

    Usually “donut shop” blends are a light roast or at least the few I’ve seen.

    Talk to me about CZ grips… what do you like if you change them out?

    The grip on the competition blue SP-01 is a bit thinner than I like. Mainly because of the very thin flat aluminum grip panels. My P01 has the factory rubber grip panels with a bit of contour and palm swell in it. I find it just about perfect.

    I know CZ makes similar rubber grips for the SP-01 too, but I don’t want the black on black look.

    I’ve done a few searches on grips and nothing is standing out to me. I like the look of wood grips on CZs but they seem fairly flat too. Part of me is thinking of trying to make my own custom wood grips fit to my preference. Another part of me thinks the competition blue grips look awesome and just deal with it.

    So I’m trying to decide what to do about the grips. Any advice?
