Gaggia Topazio - Espresso for the budget minded - coffeecrew.com - victoria, b.c. canada (#)
„The Topazio had no trouble generating intense and hot double shots of espresso for cappuccino's, lattes and good old plain Americanos. Even with a 680 Watt boiler, the Toppy has no trouble generating a sustained blast of steam for frothing enough milk for a couple of cappuccinos. The creature features of the Topazio are slightly light duty; aluminum coffee filter portafilter and thermoplastic shell around the Topazio.“

„A source of steam is required to foam milk for cappuccinos and lattes. There are a wide variety of methods to extract steam and we will not go into them all. Suffice to say, most machines have a boiler or heat exchanger to generate the hot water for brewing espresso.“

„I finally got fed up with running out for lattes every morning and the steam-driven machine that I had just didn't make a good shot of espresso, so when I saw the Krups Artese, a pump driven machine, I decided to risk [money] and see how it worked. In my opinion, it works like a charm. It makes a great single or double shot of espresso with a healthy head of crema.“

„Start by filling a stainless steel pitcher 1/3 full of cold milk if you are making cappuccino. The amount may be increased to 1/2 full if you are making milk for lattes. Although many people claim that skim, 1%, 2%, or homogenized (whole) milk is best, proper technique is more important. Equally important is making sure that the milk is well chilled, that is to say, the colder the better.“
