„For Starbucks coffee is the traffic item and the margin item. They do more than most chains in the coffee arena - semi-automatic espresso machines, not fully automatic. A wide drink menu. A secret language to order (Starbonics?).“

„The competitors have recently sought to ape each other’s strengths. Last year, Dunkin’ added a line of Starbucks-like espresso drinks, and Starbucks is building drive-thrus and is experimenting with hot breakfast sandwiches.“

„'The price of coffee beans is just one of many factors that determine the price of a cappuccino, latte or espresso,'said a Starbucks spokeswoman. What is happening on the world commodity markets has 'no effect' on pricing policy.“

CoffeeGeek - Krups Orchestro - Chris Davies's Review
„ Results, taste-wise, are better than the espresso I've had in Starbucks or any of the other big chains, with a deliciously thick and swirly crema. Generally, the Orchestro sounds like it's built basically the same as the Jura Capresso F9, although without the clever touch-screen controls; I think for me this is a plus rather than a negative, as my family like to use the machine and aren't too stressed out with the simple button-count on offer. All in all, a sensible, straightforward and reliable choice - and one I'm still pleased with two years down the line.“

„In my experience...forgetta 'bout it. Starbucks is experimenting with super-automatic machines in their stores to address their talent shortage. (See my article Espresso for Restaurants regarding super-automatics.) It is a bit of a Catch 22 to build a larger company based on quality espresso. You need a manager, but only a few locations can generate enough money for an arm chair owner to secure the talent.“
