Well here is my Espresso machine and grinder once again...I am begiining to feel like Jack Olsen, always showing off his BB2...
But this truly is a good machine and makes great coffee...it seems no matter what kind of beans I use it always winds up tasting like a rich, frothy, hot cocoa... I steam 1% Milk and add a couple of teaspoons of Raw Sugar.
So far I like the different kinds of beans Trader Joes has...I have used their....Kenya AA, Sumtra, Dark Sumtra, Espresso, Dark Yemen, Organic 5 Countries Espresso, Moka Java, and Columbian. The only one that I didn't like was the Columbian..it just didn't have any taste.
I have to say that after running my own machine I won't go to Starbucks anymore, because all they do is sell is water with a little flavor in it.
