$39 for a Two-Hour Coffee 101 Class ($80 Value)

During a hands-on Coffee 101 class, students learn to imitate Ipsento’s precise brewing methods so they can brew barista-quality cups at home. A coffee instructor explains each bean’s journey from tree to cup before letting attendees experiment with different methods of brewing that are easy to replicate at home. The class also covers different varieties of coffee from around the world, and helps students develop their palates and discover which regions and roasts they prefer. Ipsento provides snacks to nibble alongside endless sips of coffee.

Ipsento Coffee House

Attention to detail is key at Ipsento, where staffers artfully decorate lattes and taste test roasted coffee beans daily to guarantee their perfection. This kind of culture starts with Ipsento’s owner, who flies around the world sampling coffee while building rapport with bean producers and paying them more than fair-trade and market prices.

Ipsento serves its freshly roasted coffee in a cozy café where patrons can chat or type studiously on a fake laptop made out of cardboard. The front room is dominated by a small roaster and a counter behind which talented baristas steam milk and pull shots from a rebuilt and retrofitted La Marzocco machine. Using Jo Snow and other locally made syrups, they create cardamom-rose lattes and the signature Ipsento latte, flavored with coconut milk, honey, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. A small set of stairs leads to the back room, which is decorated with framed photos and windows repurposed as wall art. In this serene environment, music plays as patrons sip coffee and eat made-to-order sandwiches on croissants or sliced bread.

The Groupon Guide to: Urgent Warnings to Shout at Horror-Movie Characters

A well-timed movie-theater outburst can stop a character in a horror movie from getting killed—or worse. What are some helpful things you can shout at the screen the next time you see a scary movie?

  • "Look behind you!"
  • "Look behind you—into that mirror! The killer was in front of you the whole time!"
  • "Look inside yourself! There you'll find the key to your survival: self-confidence."
  • "Look inside yourself! There you'll find the key to your survival: a literal key." (Saw movies only)
  • "Look out! The killer's too legit too quit!"
  • "No, don't split up! That's what my parents did and that was awful!"
  • "Don't go in there!"
  • "Do go in there! 'There' being a state of situational awareness in which you decide against entering the place you were about to go into."
  • "Don't look in the closet! That's where the killer is hiding his spare clothes!"
  • "Just relax. Time murders us all eventually."

When is it okay to scream at a movie?
