  • Given the prep that goes into good espress, surely buying espresso from a cafe is out of the question?

    I can’t see them pissing about with distribution tools and level specific tampers and weighing scales.

    Or is this all down to a decent barista and good beans and prep

  • Most cafes focus on milk-based drinks, so they'd probably make you meh espresso, but some places like Moonstruck consider espresso its own drink (as they should!) and will go through the whole ordeal of puck prep etc to serve you something delicious. It probably depends on your taste as well though, I know I can find some great fruity espresso but I don't know where to send someone who prefers darker roasts.

  • Talk to me...fruity espresso is exactly what I'm looking for!

    Also, I gave up making home espresso a while back. So it is a genuine treat, as a change from filter at home and Mokapot at work.
