The Coffee Review - the world's leading coffee buying guide (#)

„The West Coast is doubtless the cradle of American espresso culture. True, Caffe Dante and Caffe Reggio were serving cappuccino in Manhattan long before the pioneering San Francisco and Berkeley caffes opened, and little storefront social clubs served espresso to domino and card players in Italian neighborhoods across the country for decades. But the whole business broke out of Italian enclaves and became decisively Americanized somewhere between the moment the first caffe latte was served, perhaps at the Caffe Mediterraneum in Berkeley in about 1958, and the late 1980s when Seattle emerged for its few years of fame as ground zero for an explosion of music and coffee innovation.“

Café de Colombia - La taza Perfecta (#)

„El café serré es espresso extra fuerte, mientras que café allongé es un espresso suave. En Italia, si Usted ordena un caffé,le darán un espresso. El espresso lungo es un espresso con doble cantidad de agua, que es lo más parecido al café americano de filtro que conseguirá. Un cappuccino chiaro contiene menos café y más leche, mientras que el cappuccino scuro está hecho con menos leche y más café“

CoffeeGeek - Engineered Perfection in Espresso (#)

„All varietal nuance, hints of chocolate, and anise, combined with heavy caramel under a toasted crust flavor, were present in the flavor of the espresso. Brewed on the TREUH Italia, my espresso tasted just like the fresh ground blend smells.“

„I would recommend the Saeco Italia automatic espresso machine. I've looked at and sampled shots from several automatic machines for home use, and I selected the Italia. It's pricey, but then again I want the quality.“
