  „that reminds me. probably the best decaf espressos i have had was an SOS I made a while back from a lot of FTO decaf sumatra i was using (untill it was no longer available ) Mild, nice body and better crema than 90% of caffeinated espresso blends i see out there. and it had this really nice cedar-like aroma that i've been longing to experience again ever since.“

Espresso! My Espresso! An Ongoing Internet Novel - CHAPTER

  „11/26/00 - There's an old saying that you don't know what you got till it's gone, and that's the way this morning's espressos went. I had run out of Monkey and Donkey about three days ago and we have been "surviving" on some Alpenroast sample "natural" beans that I got from the Whole Latte Love folks with my order. These beans were quite nice, predominantly Arabica, and made some very nice espresso. I would have to say that it lacked some of the depth and complexity of the Monkey beans, but was very drinkable, indeed.“

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

  „At Coffee Review we review espresso both as straight shot and in a volume of two parts milk to one freshly pulled shot of espresso. Willem and I tasted the espressos reviewed here together on the same day, prepared on Willem's La Marzocco machine. Because the act of brewing is so crucial to refined evaluation of espresso coffees, following a precise, replicable brewing and preparation protocol is essential to any credible review.“

It's All About Coffee

  „The Good Housekeeping Institute's Food Appliances department picked their four favorite espresso machines so you can whip up espressos like a barista (Italian for an espresso master) in the comfort of your own home -- without breaking the bank. Each model is pump-powered and produces espresso topped with crema (golden foam, the sign of a great espresso) every time.“

CoffeeGeek - Espresso: Questions and Answers, What is Italian espresso like?

  „They told me that a typical Italian espresso tastes like a good double espresso from the Torrefazione coffee house chain in the USA. To me that means that Italian espressos are not good because the best espresso from Torrefazione is bad compared to the best of Barefoot, Stumptown, Vivace, Zoka, Hines, Vita etc. (Note: these folks were taking about the 2004 Torrefazione).“
