Perfect for keeping you up til midnight every night.

I love me some espresso.

A pretty detailed review at CoffeeGeek

Run a long extension cord to the curb for your kids and let them set up an Espresso stand. Its the newest thing and then they can compete with Starbucks and Mickey Dees. Lemonade is so out of vogue these days.

I’ve always wandered…

Can espresso machines do anything else besides make espressos?

You know, like coffee makers can brew tea…

This machine works really fast.

I know it says 64 single shots of espresso, but how many cups is that? Or is a shot a cup?

The average espresso shot is 1.5 ounces but it depends on the size of the cup.

And this machine does accommodate full size cups.

can it steam good milk? It seems like a great idea, and good deal. has anyone used one?

Anyone used one of these?

Seems reviews aren’t the best after looking around.

But it’s at least $50 less than other refurbished ones.

Amazon says it’s supposed to be $399 new (they have it for $320 new) so this is a great deal IMHO.

yeah…Mad Ape Day…it must be really late at night, cuz I don’t understand it.

In for one for my dad.

He is using a 5+ year old krups that is on its last brew.

Assuming that this is a higher end model, and at a great price it should vastly outperform his other one.

Steam to pump is a good start anyhow.

I have 30 days to decide if I want to add in a warranty using SquareTrade right?

Anyone recommend that?

And for some of us, if we had one of these, we’d be up forever! XD

Dammit… I want Espresso now.

Here’s a link to the manufacturer’s page for this item:

Get Mom what she REALLY wants: a reburfished coffee maker, arriving ten days late.

I have had this exact machine for 16 months and use it just about everyday. It is a great home use espresso machine.
I paid $169 for mine and have no regrets.

The stainless stays clean, the valves and pumps are good and still working after over a year, no leaks anywhere.

You have to purge a little water from steam tube before frothing milk but it takes about 10 seconds and you can do it right into the drip tray.

I think that with this machine as well as a good burr grinder, I am able to make just as good coffee as the local coffee stand.
