Show us your coffee maker

ok... lets see where you make your morning coffee. Be it a moka, home machine, or commercial machine...lets see 'em.

This is my Carimali. We own three Italian Pastry Shops/ Caffes. We also have a 4 group Astoria, and a 2 group Nuova Simonelli Aurelia.

I like the Aurelia the best for making the coffee, but the Carimali is the sexiest!

We have been serving espresso and espresso drinks since 1955. I also have 2 antique machines that we no longer use, but just put out for display.

Nothing much to look at... I do have a small army of them though!

Well, thats what I do for a living... so even though its what I make myself coffee on every morning, I have a few Bialetti moka pots for espresso and a Cuisinart grind and brew at home... although they are rarely used.

In Life as in Coffee variety is the spice of life

Some french press, some Moka and variations and a super-auto as todate I have not taking the plung to artist but rather I just love a solid (not perfect) shot of espresso first thing in the morning and with this I can do it half awake with no mess.

floydpink · 10-18-2008, 07:20 PM

Baby Gaggia and Gaggia MDF grinder. I guess I'm gaga for Gaggia?

I like the results I get a lot.

Ditto that. I loves me coffee and get it when I travel all over but maybe it's time to invest in some of the grand perulators.

Nice. We gotta start a thread illustrating how to do those cool designs in the microfroth. I'd be so happy if I could learn the Christmas tree before December comes around and wow our company for the holidays.

Have this plumbed in to the water line at home and love it!

Oscar and Mazzer Mini.

Using the naked portafilter right now. I drink, Americanos, and heat the water with the steam wand. This works quite well. The machine has ridiculous steam...
