We bought an Ascasso Dream a few weeks ago. It was a bit of an impulse buy, although we’ve been pondering getting an espresso machine for some time. It’s just so sexy we couldn’t resist. I knew making espresso wouldn’t be easy, we’ve been practicing over the last few weeks and just recently starting to get good at it. Chika made a great cup this morning! Good fresh beans seem to be one of the critical factors. Our favorite at the moment is the house blend from Forsyth’s in Naremburn. Another discovery was that our cheapy grinder just wouldn’t cut it. I splurged on a Rancilio Rocky.
