Today
Tenshi was testing the coffee machine and frowning at it as Kakashi walked to the counter, laying his face on it. Tenshi paused and looked at him in confusion, saying kindly "If you're having a stroke, please have one outside."
Kakashi turned his face and grumbled, "I remember when you were nice." Tenshi pursed his lips and tilted his head, smiling softly, "Kakashi-san, dying would be bad. Please die in a hospital." Kakashi sighed, "Not better."
Tenshi waved at him, going back to the machine as Kakashi groaned angrily "I have to lead a Team now! You know what that means?! That means I can't come here every day! That means my days of relaxation are over! Damn! Damn it all!" he slammed his clenched fists on the counter, "My morning coffee and reading time… It's all gone! Ruined!"
Tenshi tilted his head and said "Couldn't you just send a Shadow Clone to do all that?" Kakashi froze and was enlightened! He sealed and another Kakashi appeared before walking away as Kakashi took his seat and read happily, completely relaxed.
Tenshi made his coffee and brought it over to him before walking back to the machine. This was a very tedious process!
You have to know, the main portion of the Coffee Machine is a huge box only for instantly heating the water! This was the most complicated part because it couldn't be boiling, only steaming hot.
The excess steam produced was expelled through a steam wand to froth the coffee and create a nice foam.
Tenshi could finally make foam designs! Some special flowers, a heart, he could even do a swan!
However for the more crazy foam designs, you actually needed special tools which Tenshi didn't have so there would be no jiggly corgi butt designs unfortunately. But he could make a Konoha logo in the foam, it was simple enough.
The machine under the counter was a huge box connected to the water pipe that heated the water and created steam for the steam wands. But above the counter was a different story.
Normal Cafes had a separate machine, that was huge and heavy, but Tenshi wasn't used to these. The one he was used to was the one he made here.
On the counter there was a metal rectangular basin that sloped every so lightly so that the liquid and extra grinds traveled through a pipe into the void disposal. It was built into the counter with a removable grate on top of it.
The rest came out of the counter and hung of the grate, curving into orange bulbs with buttons on them. Under the bulbs there was the part where the water came out of, this is where the handles that hold the coffee go.
Tenshi didn't have a grinder yet, so he still had to grind the beans by hand but, he poured them into the handles and press the coffee down, packing it in. The harder you pressed, the tighter the packing, therefore the stronger the coffee.
For lighter coffee, only a slight push was enough.
Then the coffee would come out of the two lips of the handle and pour into cups.
At the moment, Tenshi had 4 orange bulbs with one hot water spout right in the middle of the 4, also over the grate to heat the cups.
He was working on it because the water that came out was boiling, this would ruin the coffee and make it taste like shit. Not only that but it was too hot to drink! What was the point? Might as well make Cold Coffee at that point.
The state of the machine was very important because even a single miniscule miscalculation would create the most vile and disgusting trash excuse for coffee ever. When everything was running smoothly with the machine, he would start using it.
After that, he would need to make the Grinder to grind the beans automatically. He couldn't continue to grind the beans in a mortar right? However! Tenshi would leave the original method there on display, he was thinking about making it a special type of coffee and selling it for 200 Ryo in an exclusively Espresso format.
This was the oldest way to make coffee in his previous world! The first coffee was made like this! How could he throw away such an important landmark?
It was impossible.
Why not profit from it, he didn't expect he would get many customers who had it after they tasted the coffee from the perfected machine!
After all, if you tasted something so much better, would you want to have something worse? Maybe if you were a nostalgic person? Otherwise there was no point.
As Tenshi continued working on the machine, Kakashi's shadow clone was getting yelled at for shirking responsibility and ditching them to drink Coffee by Naruto.
Naruto waved his fist and said angrily "That's it! Come on, Sakura! Let's go find this bastard!" Sakura was stunned and Naruto added, "Heh… Sasuke can stay here… Idiot-suke." Sasuke frowned and looked at him as Naruto snorted, trotting away, "Come on, Sakura! I'll buy you a cake!" Sakura asked, "You… Do you even have money?" Naruto felt like an arrow pierced his heart and he planted his face in the ground.
