  „More recently The glass developed a crack which grew to the point where the machine was unusable.  I was able to secure a quartz cylinder of very nearly the same size.  I am in the process of carving the bakelite peices to get it to fit.“

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 - 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.“

CoffeeGeek - Nespresso Espresso Machines - J R's Review

  „ It took me a while to get the hang of it when I first got it years ago but after long periods of lack of use, I have to re-learn how to get it right each time.  I never could work the frother very well and stopped using it in preference of a stove-top frother I bought in Amsterdam (an extra step and more cleaning). Although the Gaggia has indicator lights for temperature, making multiple cups of espresso for entertaining was "iffy", at best, and often just useless to try. But, when everything goes right, it is superb.“

  „ Of course this means double the expense.  I have tried both the Senseo brand and the Folgers brand pods.  Folgers' are a little better but still have the same problem.“

CoffeeGeek - Coffee Filters - All Types - Jim Pellegrini's Review

  „While I've always enjoyed press pot coffee, I've never liked the gritty taste near the bottom of the cup.  I tried other alternatives to stock filters, such as nylon filter disks placed in line with existing filters, but was never satisfied that they substantially improved the situation.  And they added more complexity and difficulty in cleaning.  I thought I was doomed to gritty coffee unless I had the energy to drag out one of the vac pots.“
