i might gave to get a good coffee machine

I think somewhere around 98% of other household coffeemakers only get the water to maybe 180. I couldn't swing the coin on the above Technivorm when we bought our machine before the fire so we went with a Capresso machine that would get to 195 during the brew and verified it with a thermometer. Our old Cuisanart only got to 165. Does make a difference in the final product.

or one of these if you want to get all traditional...





It's been said a thousand times, but make sure you get the grinder right first.

Miami can get you hooked on cafe con leches in a hurry.
I'll bet most of the machines say "Rancillio" on them if you're near little Havana.
