Bodum Shin Bistro Insulated 34-Ounce Double-Wall Glass Coffee Press Review

I was searching for a drip coffee maker and just couldn't decide. I wanted a thermal pot...and then I remembered about a decade ago that I bought a Bodum coffee press and had THE BEST COFFEE I have ever tasted. I bought this and Bodum's Antigua burr coffee grinder and now enjoy consistently excellent coffee. This press makes two large mugs of coffee and keeps the coffee hot for a reasonable amount of time.
To get the most out of this press, I recommend buying whole bean coffee and grinding it as close to brewing time as possible. I put in 4 "Bodum" measures of coffee (they give you a measuring spoon) and fill with water just off the boil.
The coffee made with a press is strong, yet never bitter. It has depth and character that still amazes me. No more drip brew for me!

Bialetti 06989 2 Cup "Mukka Express" Stovetop Cappuccino Maker Review

Average Reviews:

Ok, I have to admit, I live in Italy.. But I'm not italian, so I'm not very demanding when it comes to coffee..
I've used this product for a few times and I just can't say anything positive about it, except that it has a cool design...
The cappuccino has a burnt coffe taste, the foam is non-existing, it's just nasty.. and it's also very expensive.. It's been sitting in the top shelf of my kitchen for over a year now.. I have to say that I've never used it to make latte because that's just coffee with milk, I bought it because I wanted a cappuccino maker.. with a lot of foam, as the advertised..
I bought a nice traditional moka coffee maker and a cappuccino frother, and believe me, they work way better than this product..
Wouldn't recommend it to anyone.. Although I might make an exception just to get rid of it.. (sigh)

Progressive 8 Cup French Style Coffee & Tea Press Review

I have used coffee presses for years and this model is great because the carafe is all glass and plastic - no metal. I can put the carafe (minus lid, which does conatin metal) directly in the microwave. I heat the water on high power for 4 1/2 minutes, add coffee grounds, stir, wait a minute, then press. Fast, Simple, Space Saving. I take this on campouts and on vacations, too.

Nespresso C100 Essenza Single-Serve Automatic Espresso Machine,Black
This makes excellent espresso, cappuccino, and lattes. I was introduced to it by a friend who has a villa in Tuscany, so it's authentic. It's a breeze to use and clean, and, with your first order of coffee pods, Nespresso gives you a wonderful chest to display all 12 kinds of espresso and lungo they have. After dinner, you present this chest to your guests and have them pick the one they want. You pop it in the machine, press a lever and at once, it starts filling the cup, crema and all. I recommend you buy the Aeroccino from Nespresso to make the cappuccinos and lattes. It, too, is a versatile, excellent machine. Both together are stylish and neat on your counter, as well as small.

Unique 6 Cup Cafetiere Review

I ordered this product thinking it would be a 6 cup cafetiere but I only get 1 1/2 cups from the cafetiere. And that is an 8 oz. cup I am talking about. What size cup are the advertisers talking about?????? Also the cafetiere leaks coffee over the counter top and down the front when pouring as the spout does not seem to be big enough. I am very disappointed in the product. The only positive thing I can say is that it keeps the coffee warm.

Unique 3 Cup Cafetiere Review

I got a more expensive coffee maker that makes just one mug (apparently Cafetiere thinks it makes 3 cups, but they would have to be espresso cups) because it keeps the coffee hot, but I am very happy with the coffee--and making one mug at a time instead of my 12-cup drip potful has reduced my coffee consumption by one or two cups a day. The Cafetiere is easy to clean--a simple rinse will do it, with soap and water in the sink once a day--but the grounds have to be soaked in water to remove. We compost, so placing a paper towel under the colander where we keep the compost before it goes into the bucket daily, makes a big difference in how many grounds go down the drain.
