"The Perfect Shot"

I have had this Capresso EC-50 for a couple of months now.

I've waited to write this review because I wanted to be absolutely sure that this machine was really as good as it appeared.  

I've been fooled before by affordable espresso machines that work well for a couple of cups and then the problems surface.

I can honestly and comfortably say, for the money, this is it.  

For 99.99 (that's under a hundred bucks), you can have perfect espresso, cappuccino, lattes and more.  

Keep your coffee shop visits to a minimum.  This thing will pay for itself in no time.

To sum it up:

  • Visually appealing
  • Not confusing
  • Minimalistic control
  • Very smooth espresso
  • Nicely finished
  • Good platform for the cups
  • Allows you to customize your espresso (allows you to add more water, less water)
  • Perfect every time


And last, but not least, even I can use it!




*(Capresso provided me with a free EC50 for the purposes of preparing this review, which in no way, has limited my complete enjoyment of this machine)

It's Not Your Mother's Eight O'Clock Coffee - Columbia Single Serve Cup

You may not have noticed, but Eight O'Clock Coffee (which I used to refer to as Eight O'Clock Bean Coffee) has experienced a new attitude. There's new packaging and now there is even an Eight O'Clock K-Cup(R). I enjoy and delight in experiencing artisan roasted coffee and I can ride the "third wave" as good as the next person, but sometimes I just want to remember the way things used to be. So, the Eight O'Clock K-Cup  is the perfect way to enjoy a coffee that's always had a special place in my heart - but with a new twist. All these new single-serve coffees are making me lazy. But, don't worry, I'm an equal opportunity coffee-lover. Here's to the weekend!

All Time Favorite Coffee Jingles

I have consumed a lot of coffee over the last couple of decades, but it's mainly through "trial and error," "word of mouth," or "pure luck," that I found those I've enjoyed the most. And, of course, the folks who reach out and let me know about the great coffees that are out there. But with micro roasters becoming more and more popular, and grocery store coffee being talked about less, even though many supermarket varieties are very good, I can't help but remember some of those jingles and television commercials that remain etched in my mind. Some of my favorite coffee jingles: "Good to the Last Drop" (TM) (Maxwell House) "Richness Worth A Second Cup" (TM) (Yuban) "The Best Part of Waking Up, Is Folgers In Your Cup" (TM) And, last but not least, drumroll. . . .my all-time favorite: "Fill It To the Rim With Brim" (TM) (Brim Decaffeinated Coffee) (special thanks to my sister for remin
