„I find this is really important to me more and more these days - I tend to prefer my espresso shots as "double espresso ristretto doppio", which is a restricted double espresso shot with a dollop of foam on top. To brew one today, I have to have the steaming function on one of my machines ready to go, and my Silvia brewing the shots. To brew one tomorrow, I just brew my shot with the Livia, then froth my milk, right away.“
