Coffee on the Road - Boston (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

  „I should, instead, look at this as a hopeful sign. If the North End can dish out a double ristretto with a sweet snap on the back of the tongue but a subtly strong finish that lingers for the rest of the walk (to the neighboring bar, for another espresso) then it is only a matter of time before others can (and will, I hope) attain this. So let me say, with some degree of hesitation, that our future can be very bright. That while Boston has a great espresso scene, you may not have to travel beyond your own community before getting quality coffee drinks.“

  „Did I mention that there's a picture of little girl with her tongue sticking out on the temperature gauge? They're clever people, those Italian espresso machine makers. Such a delightful sense of humor.“

CoffeeGeek - Vibiemme Machines - All - Wilco Bos's Review

  „Finally, I succeeded in my mission: to prepare a perfect ristretto with great reprocreation and predictability. Every time I pull the lever - after waiting for about 10 seconds - a honeylike stream drips very slowly out of the openings of the filterholder of my recently bought Vibiemme Domobar Super into two thick edged, preheated espresso cups. After 30 seconds I lift the lever up and inspect the result: a red-brownish foaming blob of crema. Every time I want, I get this very rich, incredibly creamy and complex tasting stuff out of my new machine.“

  „Ristretto - This is the strongest and mostconcentrated espresso drink. It is made with about half the amount of water but the sameamount of coffee as a regular espresso. It is pure, intense, and wonderful in taste.Ristretto in Italian means "restricted."“

CoffeeKid - Goin' to Seattle, Francis! Francis! and Etching

  „It does push pods quite heavily (the FF!! machines started out life as being mainly for pod use), and their version of a "ristretto" is what we on the west coast call a normal single, but by and large, it's all good. They also take the time to feature the latest design changes in the FF! lineup, and especially the X1, going from the old metal and aluminum boilers to brass, and the new, better grouphead and portafilters, and the importance of such.“
