Coffee machine

[Ryanpmb]

What machine is that Marshal?

Says Nespresso on it... or does that just refer to the fact that it accepts Nespresso pods?

I saw some in Sandton about 2 weeks ago. I like the volume adjustment at each pour button, I would use that a lot.

Oh, okay, didn't know, I think I will need to go look at one next time I go buy pods, I like the dial knob as well, as Christie says, I also think I will use that a lot.

[Weight Weenie]

thanks, will have a look.

 

We have had the Jura F50 for a few years now and have done 8000 cups with only the standard maintenance needed. I can really recommend it if you are after a superauto machine, where I think Jura is the way to go.

[Weight Weenie]

Time to get some Assos cups too...

 

Have a look at this machine collection - nearly had an accident...

They are on the list!

 

Where can I get some matt cappuccino cups with black outside and white/cream insides? Similar to those at Woolies or Lucky Bread?

[Weight Weenie]

When next in PTA, visit The Lucky Bread Company in Brooklyn mall and get some love from their Mirage. Mmmm....

So I haven't read through all 45 pages, please excuse if this question has been asked.

 

I recently got an Ariete Cafe Retro coffee machine as a gift. It is a second-hand coffee machine, but I have always wanted one simply because of it's looks.

I know it is not the best of machines and I would even keep it just for it's looks, and buy myself something proper to make my daily fix.

 

BUT, I would love to be able to use this machine as my everyday coffee machine. I have already been using it and it hasn't been too bad (less than average), but I know it isn't top quality and in need of a service.

 

Does anyone know whether there is a place in Joburg where I could service an Ariete?

I would love to have it refurbished so that it works properly.

 

For those who don't know how it looks, see pic attached:

I haven't read every post, so don't know if anyone has replied to thins thread.

I bought a Ariete You&Me (espresso machine) in Italy a number of years ago.

Kenwood (Maraisburg Road, on N1) are the agents. I got my machine serviced there even though I didn't buy it through them. I paid for the spares and service - voila.

Just a quick question for the Nespresso lovers.

 

I have bought a second hand Nespresso Essenza, I am now experimenting with how much espresso vs how much milk makes an awesome cup of coffee and I see you can program the machine as to how many ml of coffee is made when you push the button. Is the factory setting good enough or should I fiddle with this to get the most out of each pod?

 

Cheers!

I programmed mine for cup size, my most used cups.
