No problem len, I'm glad someone took the time to watch. I was really lucky to find the Deaton Blog again.
What I took away other then the obviously mind blowing idea of brewing and grinding at the same time is that I thought it was great to see that the commercial coffee world is playing around and supporting this type of innovation.

Sean, thanks for posting this. I can see a rig coming together using a stainless steel vacuum pot with a grinder attachment shown in this video lowered into the top chamber while the hot water has migrated up into it. I can definitely believe that a huge difference is possible by a radical change in grinding method.
One of the reasons I can believe this is my experience in the past where a local micro roaster and coffee shop brewed through some 1.5 gallon Fetco shuttle brewers. The clarity, complexity and absolutely focused flavor notes I experienced from those brewers were only rarely experienced at home using the same roasted product whether using vac pot, press pot or any other method and also using their water to boot. There is no doubt in my mind that many of us are only getting a fraction of the full flavor potential inherent in our home roasts.
