La Pavoni Lever Model Tips from Sweet Maria's (#)

  „An automatic machine offers no ÒfeedbackÓon whether these factors are right, but on the Pavoni you can feel it whenyou pull the shot. WhatÕs even more offensive is that new machinesinclude an aerating feature that boastfully Òproduces crema fromany coffee, any grind.Ó Crema is supposed to be a sign that allvariables are right -temperature, pressure, grind, and tamping. (You willalso have less crema with wet-processed (washed) coffees --the shot cantaste outstanding ...so crema isnÕt always the sign of quality).“

French Press Brewing Instructions from Sweet Maria's

  „And I don't like the stainless steel thermal French Press that insulates the coffee because it is not meant to store coffee or keep in warm while still in contact with the grounds. If you need hot coffee for a longer period and want to use a press, decant the coffee into a thermos after brewing,“

The Espresso Pages from Sweet Maria's: Espresso, a Definition and General

  „You will need a pump or piston driven espresso machine. At one time that meant buying a hand-pull piston machine , which are still beautiful objects and can still make great espresso! The good news is that electric pump-driven equipment capable of making really good espresso at home is now widely available, starting at about $230 or so (see the Gaggia Espresso ). The machine is part of the equation, the coffee is another, and the machine-operator, the Barrista, is also key!“
