TZAHI FRIDMAN
About me:
Computer sience and technology freak for over 20 years. Held a couple of senior technical positions in Internet applications start-ups and large telecom companies. Mastering web development, interactive systems and large scale systems infrastructures (databases, system etc.).
I co-founded ROASTe.com to combine my two great passions - coffee and technology.











SMOOTH
Tzahi Fridman | Sun, 01/15/2012 - 18:04I prepared this beans, after grinding, in a percolator. I also tried as a drip. Both yielding similar results. This makes a smooth, light, and flavorful cup appropriate for any occasion/time of day.
EXPENSIVE MACHINES
Tzahi Fridman | Wed, 01/11/2012 - 04:48As far as I see it, the one-shot test can succeed in most machines of $400 & up, considering a good fresh coffee, exact grind and of course a good barista. When using machines at the range of $1000-$1500, considering the same parameters, great shots will be replicated even when pulled one after the other, as they have a much larger boiler, more accurated/sophisticated electronics etc. , and especially if milk frothing is involved as part of the coffee making process.
AMAZING DARK-ROAST COFFEE
Tzahi Fridman | Wed, 08/24/2011 - 03:07The first thing I said while drinking the first shot was - "Wow... that's interesting!". I found it deep and complex, strong but not bitter, chocolaty but not so sweet ... as I said - "interesting". I enjoyed every cup, whether its Espresso or Cappuccino, and can't wait for the next delivery to arrive.
GREAT STUFF!

GREAT TAMPER!
Tzahi Fridman | Tue, 06/28/2011 - 11:03These tampers are great. I replaced my plastic tamper which I got with the espresso coffee maker, and the results are much much better.
