I came home from school a month ago and realized that we suddenly had one. But it's never used. I wonder if my family will still have it when I leave in August

We have an espresso machine. Let me tell you it makes damn good lattes and cappucinos. It is a hassle though, you gotta press the espresso into the sifter and let it drip into the shots, then you gotta wait for the steamer to heat up and foam the milk. It is worth the time you take to make it, however

I'm to impatiant to wait. Buy the time Lady blue makes a latte or cappucino I would have gulped down an instant coffee [img]graemlins/veryhotthread.gif[/img]

Spend your money on something else or if you must have one buy a second hand one or an unwanted gift of Ebay. There are plenty to choose from.

An old flatmate of mine used to have an espresso machine, it was great! It made 6 cups at a time which equals one big mug of espresso for breakfast and hardened arteries until lunchtime

These days I hardly drink coffee cos it gives me terrible heartburn, and my partner doesn't drink it at all so no point having a coffee maker of any kind whatsoever.

I want one, I LIVE for caffeine (stupid exam seasons making me a caffeine junkie). but I'm trying to wean myself onto normal coffee cause it's cheaper. here's a tip: hazelnut creme and brown sugar makes coffee taste extremely good.


caffiene continues to be my drug of choice
