„ The others drink the cheap stuff.... Mom & Dad used to drink Hills Bros., using about 2-3 scoops for 10 cups. It looked like a light rust in the cup. I had a "somewhat" different taste for coffee (using whole beans in Cal.)...“

CoffeeGeek - Rancilio Silvia - Chris's Review
„ I was going to delay the purchase but I saw that the Daily Grind had dropped the price to $325 (The price had since just gone up to $345). It may be odd to say, but I‘m glad that I worked my way up the expresso machine chain (Krups steam toy -$60; Krups pump toy -$100; each busticated from use before being replaced). I would have hated to have dropped the money on a Silvia and then find out that it didn‘t really matter to my quality of life -- spending money for the sake of spending money is a very expensive hobby.“

CoffeeGeek - Cuisinart Brew Central - Robert Jason's Review
„The manual (yes, I RTFM) states that a MAXIMUM of 15 scoops of ground coffee per brew cycle can be used). I then carefully measured out 12 scoops (using Cuisinarts provided scoop, I guess around 6 grams per scoop) of the freshly ground, 2 day rested Yrg, and dumped this into the supplied permanent gold filter (You may also use a #4 paper filter). I figured with the slightly smaller scoop then my 7.25 gram scoop, I'd cut back the water amount a cup, thus 11 cups of water rather than 12. Cuisinart actually recommends 12 scoops/12 cups, but we like our brew a bit stronger.“

„ It is VERY easy to tell a 2 degree F difference on the set point of the PID in the cup. I'm guessing that Marzocco has a reason for the way theirs are set up, perhaps it is preferable for a commercial environment. Honestly I have no idea. All I do know is that you should be able to have it set up in such a way that every time you hit the button to brew, you should be able to get the same temp in the portafilter.“

CoffeeGeek - Espresso: Questions and Answers, Please help me.
„I'm happy with my Capresso EspressoPro (~$250; I got it on sale for $200). It makes good espresso using preground Lavazza or Illy with a minimal learning curve. I'm not much of a milk fan so I haven't tried much along the cap/latte side, but I have verified it makes satisfactory mochas.“
