My Twitter Espresso Experience

Two weeks ago my espres­so machine died — with­out warn­ing. Not up to date regard­ing espres­so machines I was con­front­ed with an exhaust­ing prod­uct com­par­i­son marathon. But — why not use Twit­ter? I wrote about my lit­tle social rec­om­men­da­tion exper­i­ment here.

Now I want to to com­plete the descrip­tion of this exper­i­ment with more qual­i­ta­tive results. First, this is how my new Saeco Aroma, the Gas­troback cof­fee mill, the beans, milled at medi­um grade, and the final espres­so look like:

The espres­so itself has a nice crema — as you can see — it comes at a very good tem­per­a­ture, and with a beau­ti­ful taste. 

Next thing to do is to com­pare dif­fer­ent espres­so beans in com­bi­na­tion with dif­fer­ent milling grades.
