I have been searching for an espresso machine the last couple of weeks and have received a huge education. Apparently, the reason the espresso from my Mr. Coffee was crappy was because the machine was crappy. After much research and many days of craving (I cut myself off from the $4 lattes from Starbucks and Java Joe's), I ordered the Solis Crema SL90.
The machine was on back order. I doubted that I would get it before I left for a business trip next Monday. But I got an email from the OurCoffeeBarn.com. FedEx tracking number 070093710151567. It is currently on a truck for delivery. Maybe the truck I hear outside right now.
I ordered a super sampler pack of espresso pods from PodMerchant.com which came a week ago. They have been sitting on the kitchen counter, mocking me. HA! Today they get their come-uppance. I know, I know. The true espresso afficianados scoff at espresso pods. But I am lazy and not that bright. I can't figure out the whole tamping, measuring thing. Perhaps once I get a taste of what could be, I may study the art of espresso more closely.
