1 Machine; transforming me into 'a morning person' on the 1st sip!

Updated on April 18, 2021

When I wake up, I know I'm gonna be...

I'm gonna be making my morning coffee!

I have never owned a coffee machine before, never fancied having one either for that matter. The main contributing factor was that I am NOT a barrister!

The art, or craft of making coffee has always been classified to me.

I'm not a complete idiot, I understand that the beans need to be ground and how that works and happens, I understand, to transform the grind into that beautiful dark chocolate look alike liquid, it needs to have the perfect temp water run through it, into your awaiting vessel (or cup).

I also understand that the milk needs to be frothed to the specified amount for the type of coffee ordered.

What I am at a loss about is; how can a $6 coffee taste so wonderful made by one barrister, then 'spit-out' awful by the next barrister?

Thanks to a recent shop to my local Coles and my ever present 'Bargain-Seeking' eyes, I am the proud owner of a super cute, super easy, super fast mechanical barrister where the coffee is the same quality every time i push the button- and, if I make one for hubby, or he for me, there is generally a kiss exchanged as thanks, not just "Large Skim Latte for EMMA" So, the experience is a lot more appealing at home too :-)

Correctomundo! I have purchased a Dolce Gusto Nestle DeLonghi MiniMe

The last few months with this addition to our kitchen to our bench-top have been great!

There have been new flavors, mixing this flavor with that and many mornings of calm in our often chaotic morning routine.

I have tried to portray for you, all the great aspects of this wonderful little machine!

There are links below to find where you can purchase this little morning helper in your country too!

Please enter the DEBATE- coffee or tea? What is your preference?

Then too, there is a voting option a little further down where you can nominate your favorite flavor!

I am looking forward to hearing about your likes and dislikes!

Time saving is what I need

Make my morning coffee with speed!

The 1st sip is filled with a wake up call,

now you're progressing in no time at all.

Whether you prefer a latte or mocha,

mornings will no longer start with a shocker

:-)

The great debate waged for centuries! - Coffee OR Tea?

Tell me what your preference is?

Are you a coffee perker or a tea brewer?

This is the machine I am referring too, or one of the many designs available in the range.
