My New Espresso/Cappuccino

[BHC]

My cousin has this machine and I was impressed by it, so I went out and got it and I got it for $167.00 on sale, it was $299.00. No way was going to spend $400 or more for a maker

I had a cup of coffee once and hated it. Found out that I'm naturally caffeinated.

We bought a similar one for home. Learned about it in Hawaii on a coffee plantation tour - Hula Daddy. They used it to make coffee samples. I do like Nespresso for my afternoon espresso though.

I switched to a french press about 12 years ago.  Makes the best damn cup of coffee.  We always buy high quality beans and grind them fresh.

 

I went through a few glass ones and they last for a year or two before they eventually crack.  I figured this $125 was money well spent.  It's brushed stainless steel, so it essentially looks as good as it did when I bought it 6-7 years ago.  The welds are beefy so I  don't anticipate the handle breaking. It's double walled and keeps coffee piping hot for hours, and at 44oz, it's just about the biggest quality french press on the market.

Been french pressing for years (luckily with the same glass press). My next step is roasting my own beans which I plan to do once I finish doing some remodeling. I'm told once you roast your own you won't want to go back, we'll see.

I've been told the same.  Right now, I don't have the time or money to devote to that.  I can see myself getting in to it somewhere down the road though

 

Please keep us posted on that adventure if/when you decide to do it

You'll have to spend about 2000 more to get the same quality in other brand machines.

I have one and love it!
