Interview with a Roastmaster (#)
„"We have twelve different types of beans from all over the world," Frank says. "We use mostly Central American beans, since they're the basis for a good espresso. We also use only 100 percent Arabica beans as opposed to Robusta, which aren't very good quality. Central American beans tend to be spicy as well as a harder bean, so they have less moisture.“

„Or tune into the coffee newsgroups for a few months. Pump Factoid: The relatively inexpensive home espresso maker uses a motive device called a "reciprocating" pump. They're cheap, noisy, and produce very high pressure under ideal laboratory conditions. Don't be fooled by claims of ridiculously high pressure that appears in trendy graphics splashed across the machine’s packaging.“

„When we were in Italy for our boy's baptism, we drank espresso every morning made in a little stovetop espresso machine (do a search for a moka brewer). It was great. If you're trying to make a great impression, get one yourself first (they can be under $20 new) and practice a lot.“

„Though iced coffees, or drinks made with "brewed" coffee, haven't seen the meteoric rise in popularity that iced espresso drinks have, they're still a mainstay menu item, and you'll want to know how to prepare them well. There are special machines for making iced coffees, like Bunn-O-Matic's IC3, which is specially designed to brew up to three gallons of iced coffee. But there are also some very low-tech options for making iced coffees.“

Tea & Coffee 02/03 - Espressing Their Opinions: Choosing an Espresso Machine
„You need service within an hour. If you’re down and if you are running an espresso cart and you can’t make espresso, you’ll lose hundreds of dollars a day.” In the seven years that Babcock has had this machine, he can’t remember a time that it has broken down. If it did break down, he said, “It’s just been one time when it was clogged or something.”“
