Panic at making coffee for other people? I have moments making my normal morning pot where I think I've had a mini-stroke. How many teaspoons have I put in? five...four...six? Did some of the grounds just slip past the filter? Am I going to be chewing this in a minute? A bad cup can feel like the first step on a day of disasters, but a good cup is like your guardian angel giving you a shoulder rub.

Will, like you I couldn't make a proper pot of coffee for anyone if my job depended on it. I drink espresso, ristretto. Easy beasy. I teeny little cup at a time. I don't think you can even call it Joe. Maybe Enzo. If you come to my house, that is what you will get because I don't even own a coffee pot. So I say, make YOUR coffee for anyone who comes chez vous. And then read them some of your stuff because it's great.
