Coffee Appreciation

Ahhh.. I try to cut down for three weeks now but it does not work as I don't want to enough I guess,
because it's like, you know...

L'anna Iberital 1 Head Automatic coffee Machine

Any thoughts? Thinking about getting one for work.

Londoners, terribly listed Mazzer Super Jolly Grinder in London. Potential bargain:

co-op factory at Gichathaini which is mind bendingly good

Not that I need anymore coffee atm but from where?

Mrs socks - Full court press or small st espresso both very good

Sweet, thanks. Got a couple of days, so will prob try both! Heh.

Is an aeropress suitable for making a single short, strong coffee? Is there such thing as a mini aeropress? aeropressino?

I'm looking to replace a 1 cup moka pot which I think made ~ 60ml of quite nice coffee.

...electrical problems? I can fix that!

If its tripping the rcd in the fuse box that won't help.

3 cup minimum.

Ikea do a cheap stainless steel one if you are worried about aluminium.

PS Have you people tried the Ikea coffee or beans?

replace it with another moka pot

I do the faux-americano by making a double shot with the aeropress (espresso grind, 45s or so). Never tasted it without extra water though.

I tend to drink single, or occasional double shots (with a little sugar) and I don't want to waste hand-ground coffee each time.

Keen to hear if anyone does this with an aeropress before I go back to a moka pot.

anybody could recommend a good place for a good coffee opening around 8:30 in chancery lane area?

Not Socks, but still interested! Given my knack of spilling coffee (in fact any liquids) this could promptly be as relevant on this thread as 'Oh Shit moments' :/

Department for coffee and social affairs, in between Chancery lane and Farringdon St.

Thanks again for the Bristol tips, might also pop in to Didn't You Do Well, as apparently they have a Slayer...

Indeed - think they have just opened up on Park Row.

If you can make it over to Bath then Collonna and Smalls is amazing

Hopefully nobody mines me posting this (I'll put it in a proper classified thread in a few days but someone here might be interested first).

I've upgraded to a Gaggia 105 so my old Evolution is for sale. It's been regularly de-scaled and recently had the group head seal changed. It's a well used machine and has some knocks and scrapes on the casing, functionally it's fine though. The portafilter doesn't have a spout (it was plastic and cracked).

It also comes with a 58m heft madebyknock tamper with a walnut handle (only a few months old)

£35 for the machine
£25 for the tamper
£55 for the pair

Possible dibs.

Actual dibs.

Possibly.

2nd definite dibs
