The Coffee Sauce - for STEAK

This is a bold sauce reserved for coffee lovers only.

You are about to embark on a long winded and at times tedious instructable. But let me assure you, if you get over the idea of coffee and meat as an alien concept and except the many time consuming steps you will definitely be impressed by the outcome.

You are about to make an extremely delightful coffee meat/poultry jus (technically its a cross between a jus and a stock but we are not going to get in to that now)

When I saw the coffee challenge I was inspired. I have no choice in the quality of the steaks I receive ( i guess its a budget thing) So my steak night revolves around new and interesting ways to make low quality meat taste awesome. Here is my latest attempt. Good job all my guests love coffee!!
