There was a dangerous point in my bartending career...

I worked at a fancy restaurant, and they bought a super fancy (like $35k) automatic espresso machine, that ground the beans to order and everything, with a touch screen.

I accidentally discovered that, if I got a little grease on my finger before telling it to make me a double shot, after it poured one, it would think my finger was still on the button, and immediately start pouring another.

So I would make a pint of espresso each evening for espresso martini, and then a quart for myself.

Wait, how's that different from just making yourself 2 double shots?

A quart would be 16 2oz double shots.
