Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-06 Summary: perfect accessory! ... This little guy is perfect for a double shot. It's small, easy to clean, and helps keep the espresso warm until I'm ready to assemble my drink. I prefer this pitcher to the 3oz ones. I only purchased one, but may order another in the future. Great buy! ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-27 Summary: Perfect for what I needed ... I decided to pull out the espresso maker we received as a wedding gift that has been collecting dust for a few years to cut down on my trips to the coffee house. After getting the hang of using it again I decided that I should get some accessories now that I was becoming a regular barista (in my mind anyway). I purchased two of these little pitchers which are perfect for my setup. What a difference from using some small coffee cups. They make pouring the espresso into my mocha glasses easy, they're a snap to clean, ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-05-02 Summary: Didn't Want to Put it Down! ... This is a great read especially for people who LOVE espresso.

With a blithe tone, the author plays on the palate of coffee aficionados to provide a rich blend of anecdotes about men and women relationship issues in an extreme location. All of this plus 365 daily grind recipes! Compare to Bridget Jones and Nanny Diaries, this shares the life of a barista. (Not affiliated with porn books as listed in Listmania!).

This thermometer reads in both fahrenheit and celsius; Features a turn off point indicator, calibration points and red and green zones; The green zone signifies perfectly steamed milk, the red indicates burned milk; Comes with an NSF thermometer clip and calibration instructions on the sleeve; NSF approved ...more
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2008-06-10 Summary: Great for not burning my capuccino! ... I use this thermometer with the Krups XS5020 20-Ounce Frothing Pitcher. I believe they get along fine, but not great though. I would have liked to find a slightly smaller Frothing Pitcher with a correspondingly smaller thermometer, but this is only because my Francis Francis X3 has a very small space for Frothing. I really like the colors inside it since you don't have to pay attention to the numbers. Green means great capuccino, red means burned capuccino. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-26 Summary: Great Thermometer ... This thermometer is great!! Very accurate. It does exactly what you want an espresso or milk frothing thermometer to do! Stop steaming your milk when the thermometer reaches 140 and the milk will end up in the middle of the green zone. Perfectly frothed. Never burned. Excellent! ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-30 Summary: Convenient ... It is so convenient to receive these coffee pods regularly by subscription. Sometimes my grocery store is out of them, this way I never run out. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-28 Summary: GOOD DEAL ... I purchased this variety pack from Amazon because of three reasons. First three of the blends I caannot locate locally. Secondly the price is competitive and this product is eligible for free shipping. Finally the subscribe & save feature assures me a steady supply of this product tailored to my needs at competitve pricing and free shipping. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-07 Summary: Not bad at all! ... I bought this product for my mom, who drinks coffee...but is the only one in our family to do so regularly. Operating it is simple enough; just load the coffee grounds into the (reusable) filter, flip the switch, and voila...coffee brewed and in the mug in about 5 minutes. There are a couple of drawbacks to this machine though: 1) It doesn't have an "Off" switch. Once you flip the switch down, it will start to boil the water. This usually isn't an issue if you already have the cup sitting there, but when the switch ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-06 Summary: brew & go ... This is a terrific product. Anyone who was having problems probably was not following the instructions. I've used it 30 times and each time it's been perfect. Enjoy ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-06 Summary: My Brew 'n Go Coffeemaker ... Since my husband does not drink coffee, I wanted a coffeemaker that would allow me to make just a single cup for myself. Now I can do that and with my insulated mug I can take it with me to the den without worrying about spilling coffee. Just what I was looking for. It is a great value. ...more
Editorial Reviews — [1] ... Product Description | Wouldn't this make a great gift for a student, or a commuter? The machine brews right into the thermal travel mug and then shuts itself off, so your favorite coffee lover can simply grab and go!...more
[2] ... Review | Great for commuters, office professionals, and one-coffee-drinker households, this personal coffeemaker brews 15 ounces of coffee directly into a stainless-steel travel mug. The mug has a rubber handle for a safe grip and a lid to keep coffee hot. It's tapered to a 2-1/2-inch-diameter bottom, so it fits most vehicle cup holders. The coffeemaker itself is designed for an on-the-go coffee drinker. It has a permanent filter--no messy disposable paper filters required--and shuts off automatically after...more

Lavazza Crema e Aroma Coffee Beans, 2.2-Pound Bag
Feature: ... One 2.2-pound bag; Blend of whole arabica and robusta coffee beans for making espresso; Strong, full-flavored, dark-roast coffee with thick crema; Central/South American arabicas; African robustas; Roasted and packaged in Italy ...more
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-16 Summary: Wow. I truly didn't expect this, it's great! ... My experiences had been drip coffee - a lot of it, over the years. I recently bought an espresso machine, and started experimenting with different coffees. Some stuff I didn't like all that much - Illy dark and medium roast was kind of flat for me, sort of bland. Peet's Italian stuff was chocolately, but muddy/muddled in flavors. This, though, Crema e Aroma, absolutely lives up to it's name. Lots of flavor starting with the aroma when you open the bag and grind: mouth-filling, round, with that coffee taste I adore. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-11-01 Summary: great value ... I tried Crema e Aroma and compared it with the more expensive Lavazza Super Crema. I liked the Crema e Aroma better, because of its more pronounced and pleasant flavor. The Super Crema tasted generic to me. In addition to one's own subjective taste preferences, the final outcome depends on one's espresso machine, grinder, and coffee amount per shot. My machine is a DeLonghi Magnifica with a built-in grinder, set to max. coffee and almost minimum water per shot. I am sure that there a better coffees out there but Crema ...more

Feature: ... Electric grinder with 200-watt motor provides fast grinding; Grinds up to 3 ounces of coffee beans at a time; Oval design and stainless-steel blades ensure uniform grinding; Also can easily be used for spices, nuts, and grains; Measures 6 by 3-1/6 by 3-5/9 inches; 1-year limited ...more
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-01-06 Summary: Great grinder ... This is our second Krups grinder. We use it primarily for coffee beans. The first one lasted for years before we decided that the blades were just getting dull. I only gave the grinder 4 stars because it's a little difficult to get the coffee beans evenly ground without shaking the grinder and stopping and starting it a couple of times. There is always a little coffee dust that ends up on the counter. Still, for the money, this is a terrific grinder and will last and last. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-31 Summary: This is a good little coffee grinder! ... This is a good little coffee bean grinder! It grinds up the beans fast and efficiently. It is defiantly worth the money. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-06 Summary: Krups Coffee Grinder ... The grinder arrived quickly and in excellent shape for a wedding shower gift..we have used one for years - a great appliance. ...more
Editorial Reviews — [1] ... Product Description | 203-42 Fast Touch Coffee Grinder - Love your coffee? Here's a quick, easy, affordable way to increase your satisfaction when enjoying a cup of coffee. Grinding coffee directly before brewing helps preserve natural oils and flavors that are particular to the coffee bean. The result is a more sophisticated taste and aroma that you'll taste, smell, and feel. You're in the Coffee Zone. And that's what it's all about. Color - Black...more
[2] ... Review | Nothing beats a freshly ground, freshly brewed cuppa joe to start the day, and with this grinder, you can have up to 20 cups' worth of beans at a time. The understated black color and contemporary oval design fit in well with any kitchen décor, while the small size (just 6 inches high) doesn't take up too much premium counter space. Stainless-steel blades guarantee a long life and an even grind, whether you use this grinder for coffee, spices, nuts, or even whole grains. --Jill Lightner ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-06 Summary: Keurig My K-Cup Reusable Coffee Filter ... This reusable filter works great - great to have when you run out of K cup coffees. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-06 Summary: The perfect solution for one-cup-at-a-time ... Pop open the pod holder, place the premium coffee k-cup, pour in a cup of water, place a cup, press a button--I find this to be the best quick-cup-of-coffee solution, and I have tried them all! In the time it takes to make the toast, you have a great cup, with excellent coffee now available from Timothy's and four or five other sources. Couldn't be happier about the purchase. For those wanting to use a favorite coffee not available in k-cups, there is a reusable plastic cup. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-04 Summary: My K-Cup is a good alternative ... The My K-cup os a good alternative to buying the expensive k-cups. It offers the flexibility to use your own coffee. While I will continue to use the k-cups because they are so convenient (and I get them a lot cheaper at BJs), this is a good solution is you have regular coffee that you want to use up or if you are craving for a cup of Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks coffee. It replaces the K-cup holder in your B60 or other Keuring models it is compatible with. That is the only thing that I did not find fun about using it. ...more

Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2009-01-03 Summary: Easily holds 31 K-cups, not just the 27 it claims! Excellent product! ... This looks and works just as expected -- with the UNexpected bonus of a space at the top where you can easily fit 2 more K-cups if you want them sitting totally flush (visible only when looking down on it, not from the side), or 4 more if you don't mind them standing up, creating the look of a 4th tier. To me it's worth the extra height to hold 4 more, and it doesn't take away from the aesthetic appeal in my opinion. By the way, Amazon's price is the same as virtually everywhere, online and off -- including the Bed ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-29 Summary: A MUST HAVE FOR YOUR K-CUPS! ... You may want to order 2 of these! This is the only way to go if you are buying K-cups. Too bad these aren't stackable. They take up very little room and are a must-have to stay organized. We have 3 different coffees we drink and this keeps the boxes off the countertop. ...more
[3] Rating: 4 Date: 2009-01-06 Summary: Keurig 27-Cup-Capacity K-Cup Spinning Carousel ... This carousel looks and works fine - mine came with one of the holder rings broken off. ...more

Coffee People K-Cup Extra Bold Wake Up Call Bold, 24-Count Boxes (Pack of 2)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-06 Summary: Great for first cup of the day! ... I drink a ton of coffee and usually require a very strong brew. I really enjoy the taste of this coffee, and I also enjoy the Black Tiger variety as well. I think both are different tasting, yet both provide adequate kick and caffeine for my day. Highly recommend. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-16 Summary: A great wake-me-up for 1st thing in the morning. ... I selected this K-cup variety purely based on its name -- Wake Up Call -- and it has lived up to its name extremely well. Highly recommend. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-06 Summary: Great cup of java ... My favorite of all the brands. It's just a wonderful cup of regular coffee. Great for people who don't like the flavored coffees. ...more

Coffee People K-Cup Extra Bold Organic, Dark Roast Coffee, 24-Count Boxes (Pack of 2)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-12-01 Summary: Bold and flavorful ... So far pleased with this k cup flavor. I have found that other k cup flavors can be a little weak, but not this one. I enjoy rich but not overly strong put hair on you chest coffee and this one is bold but a good bold. ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-10-02 Summary: Very Dark and Bold ... I've tried several dark/bold offerings from various roasters sold through Amazon. So far, this one really brews the strongest cup I've tried yet. If you like really dark strong coffee, you can't go wrong with this one. If you're the type that thinks dark roasts taste "burnt", then you should probably avoid this roast. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-09-22 Summary: Coffee favorite ... Great coffee and the S & S price is hard to beat. Robust taste. ...more
