i need that cream and that taste

I had enough of the idiot's american coffee machine taste.

will you join me? will you give me hints?

i think its better to find a machine able to

15 bars at least
pump (no steam machine)
cup heater (please, cups, no hideous cheap micro glasses...)
steam hose to prepare creamy danone cappucinos

God Shot: A term coined in the newsgroup alt.coffee and popular on the CoffeeGeek website and in some mainstream press, used to describe a shot of espresso that is the most perfect shot you have ever achieved. A "god shot" is a shot so good, it must have been blessed by God. This type of shot can improve as your level of skill improves. A "god shot" from three years ago may be your average shot today.

Coffee... how I'm fond of the smell of it! And how I hate the effect of coffeine. Don't say drink coffeine-free. I only drink coffee if I have to survive the last night before an exam.  :lol:

You could drink Speed or any other Energy drink instead of coffee

My extra strong coffee knocks out all the energy drinks. Once I couldn't sleep for 45 hours from that. :D

I really love good espresso - and hate bad ones.

But sorry, my most beloved luxury foodstuff is Ceylon tea. Ever tasted the clearness and almost sesual beauty of a pure cup of Ceylon tea (especially when it comes from Mackwoods' Labookellie (http://www.mackwoods.com/tea-plant.asp)...? Oh, yeees...  :!: *** JTK spirits away, dreaming ***

one of the christmas gifts this year was a set of six teas from the world: morocco, vietnam, (both of my family's aborigenal countries) then china, taiwan, japan and indonesia

I was so happy.

but my favorite tea is the bergamot tea with an orange marmelade on a slice of bread burnt on one side

I think nothing is better than a cup of strong black coffee, its smell and its taste don't compare to anything else but another coffee

I don't like coffee : I prefer chocolate for my breakfast... Or onions, but only during Stunts meetings. :-D
