Hot weather means ice coffee time, and as you've heard from our episode with Marc Maron from the WTF podcast, I'm a big believer in iced coffee in its purest form: made with coffee iced cubes. Sporkful Eaters have documented previous evidence of coffee ice cube growth. Now Allen has this fresh example from Lifehacker, which offers various ways to use espresso ice cubes.

Good to see the coffee ice cube train continues to accelerate. Allen also takes issue with our burger episode, saying we're too soft on American cheese and that "a beautiful sharp cheddar is the way to go every time." Either cheese is welcome on my burger, though I'm more likely to go cheddar if bacon is involved. /mark
