Yeah... just about every morning I pull a shot where I stop and smack my lips and curse because it tastes so good. There is something in good espresso that lights me up. I bring a hand grinder, beans, miletta cone when traveling, cup in the morning, but never lights me up like good espresso.
The problem though is that anything but the best beans makes for horrible espresso, no/bad crema, you can taste every rancid burned detail. Much better to make drip.
We've been hooked on vivace dolce blend (
Espresso Vivace | Product categories | Coffee For Home) for years and years. Hate the price and occasionally we switch it up but always come back. At $30/week i figure the joy it gives is significantly more than expensive wine that we don't drink.
