EASY PEASY
vghozlan | Mon, 09/26/2011 - 13:50The Bialetti Moka Express is a very easy stove-top espresso machine to use. I used Illy coffee to make wonderful cappuccinos. The price is good if you do not want to buy an expensive machine.
LOVE IT!
vghozlan | Mon, 09/26/2011 - 13:46The first time I tasted Illy was when I moved to Seattle. My fiance used a coffee press and it was wonderful. I later tried in in my Breville and was transported. This is a great espresso!
NICE, SWEET TASTE
vghozlan | Sat, 09/17/2011 - 12:53I just received this coffee and hastened to make a latte. It was smooth, sweet but a little milder than I like but still a good taste. I plan on doubling the grinds to seem if that gives me a bolder cup.
MARGINAL AS A COFFEE MACHINE
vghozlan | Fri, 09/16/2011 - 12:54The Keurig machine makes a marginal cup of coffee. If you are anal (like I am about coffee), then this machine is not for coffee lovers. The amount of pressure exerted is not enough to give the coffee a good taste. I usually have to douse the cup with lots of a flavored cream to hide the bad taste. For a quick cup or an office, it works since it eliminates the need for someone to clean coffee grinds or wash out carafes.
LOVE IT!
vghozlan | Fri, 09/16/2011 - 12:47I have owned several of the Mukka Stovetops and the cappuccino is wonderful. I gave several as Christmas gifts. We had a power outage one year and we used the machine over a fireplace...lol, we were not going to give up coffee just because the electricity was out.
