Not a bean flicking machine.I have a dolce gusto machine which I like but I want to be more sophisticated and buy a bean machine
6 shotsSuch a tragic comment on this thread because I know people can get precious about good coffee
my go-to order is a 6 shot venti Americano but I usually snub the coffee contraption at home and use lavazza prontissimo instantmade with liquorice and cinnamon boiling water, then add almond milk
I worked out I drink close to 3 litres of coffee alone in a daybecause I make it in a large mason jug and drink straight from that. Probably need help. In fairness that’s from 6.10am
Try the coffee bags, so much nicer and don't take half an hour to drip through. Plus it's easier to brew to your taste. Loads of brands do them now, but I like the Taylors ones. I usually buy then when we go away (when we were allowed to!)I only drink two cups of black coffee each day. I usually buy the Kenco Millicano variety. I do have a cafetière somewhere in a box, I think, haven’t used it since before moving house last year.
I used to buy those little ground coffee one-cups, which you place on top of a cup and let it filter through. Actually, I might start buying them again, as the coffee did taste nicer.
I had the Lyons coffe bags years ago, but the flavour tasted so weak.Try the coffee bags, so much nicer and don't take half an hour to drip through. Plus it's easier to brew to your taste.

I know6 shotsomg. I do a 3 shot americano at home and thought that was a lot.
And here was me worrying that some weeks I go through two bags of beansmy go-to order is a 6 shot venti Americano
costa coffee tastes like someone accidentally spilled acid in washing up liquid and tipped it into the toilet before putting it into your cup.And here was me worrying that some weeks I go through two bags of beans
Several varieties of Costa beans are half price at Tesco right now. Only tried the signature blend and not a fan.
Have you ever had a Costa from one of their machines? you will be surprised!! I drink one or two costa machine drinks a day, until recently when the price went back up I used to have a cappuccino with caramel syrup.costa coffee tastes like someone accidentally spilled acid in washing up liquid and tipped it into the toilet before putting it into your cup.
ive never had coffee that gives me heartburn and a headache at the same time, they should use it as an instrument of torture.
if anyone asks me to meet them for coffee and suggest Costa I cut that fucker out of my life, they’re clearly going to be to person who sneaks into my room at night and puts me under the patio before sunrise.
This is awful I know but I find his videos weirdly soothing.I'm so tempted to make a James hoffmann thread - spends a few grand on equipment and then talks of all the parts that need to be replaced or tweaked in order to make a passable cup of coffee
I tried those, I could piss stronger!! (sorry) Taylor's were weak, not for me.I had the Lyons coffe bags years ago, but the flavour tasted so weak.
But thanks for the tip. I shall try the Taylor’s variety.
There are definitely a few U.K. brands around but I haven’t tried them. I remember buying some from independent coffee stores in London when I lived there too. Google suggested these two early on in the results but I don’t know how easy it would be to find them. https://www.coolcoldbrew.co.uk/I love a cold brew but I never ever remember to do it the night before. I see in America you can buy cold brew in large bottles from the supermarket, but despite looking I cant find any pre made cold brew in big cartons or bottles without milk added. Has anyone found any? Especially coming into the warmer weather.
