„We would have a cognac or some such spirit and this would be placed in a tumbler together with a twist of lemon. They would put this under the spout of a cappuccino machine and produce a scalding hot toddy. We would drink this up and then literally run back to barracks before the effect it produced had worn off. A quick dive into our bunks and we were asleep before we could get cold again.“

Gurus.net: How to Use a La Pavoni Manual Lever-Piston Espresso Machine by Daniel Ho - How to...
„As you let off on the pressure, give the tamper a twist to polish off the top. The twisting also keeps any coffee from sticking to the bottom of your tamper. I tamp and polish twice. To practice, put your handle and portafilter with the coffee on top of a bathroom scale and press down. Feel how hard this is for reference and practice, practice, practice! With the proper amount of coffee and tamping, there should be about 3-5 mm of space between the grinds and the top of the portafilter. If there isn't, take a bit of coffee out or the handle won't fit into the group head. That being said, there are some La Pavoni users that grind finer and barely tamp. After you master tamping the Illy pre-ground coffee, you can work on your own variation. Pulling the shot!“

„The medium roast allows the character of the coffee to emerge, in this case richly and sweetly acidy, complicated by sweet nut notes and, as the cup cools, more characteristic Yirgacheffe floral and lemon tones. An unusual coffee in two respects: light roasted in a region (San Francisco Bay Area) where extremely dark roasting prevails, and rather heavy bodied for a Yirgacheffe.“

The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide
„Covered serving pots have been in vogue since the Arabs started drinking coffee. At import stores you can find the traditional Arabian serving pot, with its S-shaped spout, Aladdin's lamp pedestal, and pointed cover. You can also occasionally find an ibrik, or Middle Eastern coffee maker, with an embossed cover for keeping coffee hot.“

„It comes with a dust-proof lid, non-slid padded bottom and a sturdy handle. Doubtless, it's a perfect replacement of your current office tumbler and house mug.“

„Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Grade 2, “Lemon tree very pretty and the lemon flower is sweet” is the thought I get when I smell this one. This year’s example was such a roaring success as a “special “ that I sold out despite ordering extra. Lovely citrus aroma, sweet mid palate and dark chocolate back palate aftertastes.“
