Coffee Connoisseur Among Us?

I've had a lot of practice - I'm on my 4th expresso/capucino machine (3rd Gaggia) in 20 years. :) The first one I wore out (not worth replacing the seal etc). The 2 are still going strong, son 2 has one, MIL has the other. I just upgraded.
 
Looks like you got all your bases down, don't mind me if I pop down for a vist! haha

I guess this is one of those subjects I should just stop arguing with an Italian about, eh? ;)

Not at all, stop arguing is the worst disrespect possible! You are supposed to tell me to take my foul tar-like substance an stuff it where the sun doesn't shine! :D

My friend, if you come to the States, ring me and I'll share both libations and a good smoke with you :cool:

I could be tempted by a cigar (I don't smoke but I like the scent) and, honestly, I will drink anything with alcohol in it.

Personally, I much prefer the double shot cappucino that I make every morning with my trusty Gaggia machine and using Vittoria espresso roast beans.

If your spoon doesn't stand up by itself in your double espresso, you've made it wrong! ;)
 
I love espresso.. My only fault with it is that it's over too quickly.. the cups are too small.. On the other hand, I made and drank a whole pot (about 6 shots) once.... Once....

So... what was it like to jump to warp?

Heh:lol: When I was discharged from the Navy, I had to undergo a discharge physical around 9am. The medic had made a remark that my blood pressure was "Normal", and I stated that I'd already had three cups of coffee that morning. He was stunned and wanted to know what it was like when I first awoke.

Oh.. Words cannot describe.. I was bouncing off the walls.. Made my wife regret getting me the espresso machine, but gave her hours of amusement...

JP... LOVE the AV... Some friends had that book in their bathroom as reading material and I nearly split a gut reading it...

I always say that espresso is like an Italian man: dark, hot and short! ;)

I'm sorry, it's a culturally ingrained aversion to conflict. :(

Canada, eh? :p

Well, honestly: I would take Canada's attitude most days of the week. But when talking about coffee, I just feel the pride running through my veins. ;)
