Thanks! I'll try that.
i use Milton to clean my thermal mug every night. I fill it up to the brim with water, add a drop. hey presto, sparkling clean.
On the subject of coffee machines, I'm interested in buying one too. I'd like to get involved in making the coffee, not just pressing a button. We have a Nespresso machine at work, and its all well and good. I'd take no satisfaction from doing that.
I'm just back from a trip to Italy. I bought 1kg of coffee there
Omkafe, so i want to put it to good use.
I've been getting more engrossed with coffee over the past 6months or so, there is a top Barrista beside my work place,
3fe is their name. They have some top awards to their credit. All in all, I'm struggling to go back to regular coffee these days. I guess I'd love to make my own and experiment a little.
My friend is a barrista by trade, so ill get some tips and a proper how to guide. I may do one of the 3fe coffee courses, just to fuse my brain with as much knowledge as i can take. Then i'll experiment!
Anyways, onto the subject of the coffee machines. From reading this thread, The Gaggia RI8161/40 does seem like the machine to beat. So I took a wee look about, and
The House of Fraiser's sale on this item ended yesterday. That's flippin typical, isn't it!
They are wildy expensive in Treasure Ireland. Mostly about €360. So maybe a trip to Enniskillen is in order. I'll snoop about Dublin first however.
