For years I have been longing for an espresso machine that would keep me in the caffeine high I am accustomed to without the high prices of "Starsbucks" as my 3 year old calls it. To make an investment of this amount it took some debate and heaving consideration. The math was done and when I found a machine that was refurbished at $400 less it weighed it seemed to tip the scales in my favour. What to do next??? Select my coffee of course. Having my roots originating in Costa Rica there was no doubt where I would be getting my espresso beans from; Cafe Britt! The coffee arrived in a few short days and well before I had a chance to go purchase the machine, was this the order I should be doing things in? No worries too late now... I finally got over the delightful (insert sarcasm here) upper respiratory infection and was able to pick up my machine. Lucky for me there was one left with my name on it! The math said that if we made 2 lattes a day for 11 weeks instead of going to a cafe it would pay for itself in savings. Now how fast do you think it would pay for itself if we upped that amount to 4-6 per day???? It's hard not to have more than one when the espresso is smooth and not bitter and the milk is heated to the right temp and the foam is plenty. I even went as far as to pick up all my favorite syrups and sprinkles. It makes getting up a little easier, even when you've only had a few hours sleep. Best part; the commute is no existent and pj's are acceptable attire. Second cup? Of course!
