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.“

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 - 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 Machines - Steam Models - Robert King's Review

  „- The frothing tube is _way too short_.  It's difficult to froth/steam large amounts of milk when you can only get the aid only so deep into a container.  Best used for making 1-2 servings, despite the machine's claim to be able to make at least 4.“

CoffeeGeek - Moka Pots - All Types - Mike Foster's Review

  „ The idea is to fill it about 1/4 full with milk and pump the plunger up and down to froth.  I never tried it; I don't like milk drinks, and I would never waste milk by adding it to the dreck the "expresso mio" makes, anyway.“
