I have spent upwards of 6.00 for a decent latte made just the way I like them and this little gem has saved me a fortune.  I still of course buy latte's but now I can make my own at home for a fraction of the cost.  The machine itself is right at 25.00 at Walmart and I think I counted once and it costs me .25 cents to make a latte that would otherwise run me anywhere from 5.75 to ...

Last Christmas I got the best gift ever when my husband gave me a Breville Cafe Roma Espresso Machine. I'm a HUGE latte lover and this machine makes it so easy to create wonderful "professional" style coffee drinks. The unique doubled walled filter basket makes the creamiest crema and the movable steam wand makes it so easy to create the perfect frothed milk for your favorite...

I'm sorry to say this but....don't waste your money on this Mr. Coffee Espresso/Cappuccino Maker.  I was hoping to save some money by making my coffee style drinks at home when I purchased this product.  I must say that the price was a factor in picking this model from the rest on the shelves.  This was the least expensive model and maybe that is the problem with it. ...

My experience with DeLonghi products wasn't the best, as most of you know starbucks coffee sells DeLonghi coffee makers out of their retail stores and everyone I bought failed on me. When I saw this espresso maker at target I was initially skeptical but at $199.99 I decided to pick it up anyway and put it on my target card. So right out of the box this was a very sexy looking espresso ...

I adore me some chocolatey goodness and java. There aren't that many candies that I have found which marry the two, especially ones that I can pick up at the grocery store. I have been a fan of Starbucks Espresso Truffles since I first tried them. They are so so so good. The box I mostly recently purchased is 4.2 oz (120 g). There were 10 chocolates in the box. Each...

I bought the Guzzo to be a fashionable but comfortable and practical winter coat, and it has met my expectations pretty well.  Sizing is always tricky when you buy clothes online, especially when you have little experience with the brand.   Fortunately, I lucked out on this occasion.  I am short (5') and have a medium build (116 lbs), and I chose a size small.  The ...

If you are looking for a briefcase that will last you the rest of your life you have to check out the Hartmann leather expandable Zipper Briefcase.It is pricey at $475, but it is made out of the smoothest leather you will ever feel.  I am talking leather so smooth it puts Coach to shame.  Seriously!I got this briefcase in the espresso color, which is a very dark rich brown.  The ...

What's a quick way to have chocolate and your coffee at the same time? Well, this Espresso Beans Starbucks chocolate-coated coffee beans is the answer!I like this chocolate a lot because the beans are really coffee beans unlike other coffee beans chocolate I have eaten in the past. I  like the somewhat bittery taste when you bite the coffee beans and at the same time, the sweetness of ...

The Bialetti Moka Express is the easiest way to make good espresso at home.  I bought one when trying to curb my spending at local coffee shops, after hearing about their prevalence in Italy.  It is a stovetop coffee maker, with a lower boiler that forces steam through the coffee grounds under pressure.  It is very easy to rinse clean.  There is a slight greasy coffee resid...

With coffee drinks costing up to $5, more and more people are turning to home espresso makers.  While the Bialetti Moka Pot is often called a "stovetop espresso maker," it does not make true espress.  It does, however, make very good, very strong coffee that is great by itself or as a base for lattes or cafe au laits.The Bialetti Moka Pot is made from aluminum, so it is ligh...

We are coffee drinkers so it came as no surprise when our good friends presented us for our 12th wedding anniversary, a very nice Morphy Richards Coffe/Cappucino Maker. We used to just boil water and use the hand-held coffee perculator we got from our trip in Turkey. Not anymore!This coffeemaker/cappucino maker comes with many accessories like the spoon-scooper for the ground coffee, the milk f...

My experience with my Tassimo Hot Beverage system has been hot and cold.  When it is working correctly (most of the time), it is a great purchase that provides me with reasonably priced daily drink fixes.  I'm mainly a coffee drinker so that's where most of my experience lies.  The beverage system is very ease to use.  You simply place cold water in the water reservo...
