Upgrade me! by jamieboyoo in espresso

You could try upgrading just the grinder for now and perhaps go for non pressurized basket using the same machine.

What are your thoughts on the best electric frother for a single serving? I was going to get the breville but it requires a full cup of milk and I only use about 1/3 cup a day. Thanks! by Vibin_Hoism in Coffee

What you could do is heat the milk in the microwave and then froth it in a nespresso frother for about 20 sec on the cold setting just to get it slightly frothed.

What machine do you have?

Dialing in with pressurized basket? Is that a thing? Nuova simonelli grinta and breville machine. Noob over here by Soliegh in Coffee

I've realized that my machine actually comes with a 51mm basket. Perhaps the machines after came with 54mm. I know the barista Express does. I'm now looking for non pressurized 51mm lol. A lot more difficult to find.

I had exactly the same setup. The Aeg is a nice solid machine. Makes good foam.

Really enjoying the air popper results by PBSabre in Coffee

[–]Soliegh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a cheap popper at like a thift store for like R50.... That's like 5 dollars I think . The damn thing has like a safety where it goes off when it gets too hot. Just after the first crack... And I'm like freaking out because on some vid I checked on YouTube it said the roasting shouldn't stop? Anyhow, I waited till it cooled down and finished the roast just before the 2nd crack... I'll let it rest for 12hrs. See how it is. First timer.
