Hi Bruce -- genius! Can you show the actual infuser?

[@BrucePappas]

I wish I had taken a closeup of the infuser. It was a metal piece with two holes and screens on the bottom to contain ash. The rest was made of wood, the base covering the cup and the cover, containing the smoke. JavaJim custom-designed it all and may bring it to market. The Expo closed Sunday, so I won't be able to get closeups.

The infuser is in the first few frames of the video. Two holes in a metal insert with screens on the bottom to capture the ash. Sorry that I didn't film that part.

Kinda like Liquid Smoke is used to flavor stews, soups, etc?

[@BrucePappas]

I think this is different. This like infusing espresso with actual smoke, like they do for cocktails. I think Liquid Smoke is added to cooking ingredients to give it a smoked taste. Is that correct?

[@BrucePappas]

Let me know how Liquid Smoke works, please.
