CoffeeKid - Things I love about coffee and espresso (#)

  „Illy: Thank God for Illy. No other company does more pure scientific research, and no other company cares more about what makes espresso what it is than the Illy company. They share their knowledge with the world, and espresso technicians and espresso drinkers are the beneficiaries.“

CoffeeKid - Late August Coffee Musings

  „I was happy to do it. For me, illy coffee may not be my first choice when making espresso, but I have all the respect in the world for what illy does for the world of coffee, and especially for what illy does for the world of espresso as art and culture. The cups embody that.“

CoffeeKid - Espresso Nirvana: Can it be Reached?

  „Within this espresso section of the CoffeeKid site there is a mini faq, some thoughts and ruminations on my own opinions on what a God shot is all about, and much more. I hope you read, learn and enjoy, but I also hope you develop your own opinions, and who knows, maybe even come up with a new coffee-based beverage that may even make espresso, the modern day one, seem passe. And the road to nirvana will get just a bit longer.“

CoffeeKid - Cup Photos and Stories, 1991-1999

  „illy collection cups embody this fusion of science and art. They provide the near ideal canvas for a true God shot* of espresso (though they could be a bit thicker - check out this article I wrote on illy cups and thick porcelain ). And while there are bumps in the road (I have my own opinions about which cups constitute "art" and which ones constitute "art for art's sake"), illy really has brought about a tangible, visible fusion between art and science in espresso.“

  „I like the company a lot. For me, Elektra does everything I want in the drink I like most.

Elektra simply makes some of the espresso world's most beautiful machines.“
