Gee whiz Linville, the "my Sumatran and it is like the old Maxwell House commercial,
GOOD TO THE LAST DROP"............tells me your just a younster
Your espresso maker sounds very wonderful........I find grinding my own not worth it in time or $......I have the shops where I buy my coffee grind it for me and then keep it in an airtight container.....just have them grind it #4 or "espresso".........I use the wand and froth my own....takes a little skill but once you learn.....it's fun. Â if your wand has an adapter on the end to "help" you froth the milk....well, I always throw those away......they make it worse.
Just my two cents.
Hope everyone's weekend is safe and healthier

Today is Saturday January 9, 2016
I got a fair good nights sleep thx for inquiring Ice.
No work scheduled but changing engine oil and mining through the mountain of paper work on my desk from life going faster than I can keep up with it.
I saw Kittycat post something in a thread so I hope I will see her again.Â
Hey Kitty I hope 2016 is being good to you , Linville screams out.
I am not in the politics or the cliques so I do not know what in the wide world of sports is going on.
Anyway, I just finished the last bit of my Sumatran and it is like the old Maxwell House commercial,Â
GOOD TO THE LASTÂ DROP.
No bitter aftertaste just good flavored coffee taste.
I might grind up & make more.Â
Oh, BTW my old company is offering me a goodbye gift choice, and one is a fancy coffee maker called,Â
Warning Pro Espresso Maker ....and it makes espresso's, cappuccino's lattes, and more.Â
With a steam wand, 42 oz tank and 15 bars of pressure .
What do you think Popster?
It uses pods or I can grind my own fine and tamp it in.....Hmmmmm I am really thinking of getting it for some fun.
I usually just use a regular ole drip maker. The trick to good coffee is the bean and the water temperature and of course the water being of good quality.
Oh I know you are thinking he is obsessed LOL. And yes I am into quality tasting coffee.....my quest for it was successful some years back.
Anyhoo,
Ice, can you believe I already changed my Mike Rowe avatar, thx for noticing and commenting about it, and I will most likely change it again soon .....as I am wiggling and squirming trying to change some things up.....just to get a new routine started using various ways to do it.....blah blah I know
More anyhoo,
What more can I say because Ice said it all and I only had the soapbox a few minutes. Linville Smiles
Oh, Zander I think it would be fun to request a ride with you like on TV when someone rides with the cops for the evening so they can see what it is like.Â
I mean it would be so healing all the endorphins from the laughing in good humor, there in the good parking spot...Very good one friend.
For my Last Anyhoo,
I hope everyone has a pain and stress free day.
