Hi all,
Note: just a little rant about my first try at making an espresso.
Im not saying this is a good thing... or even an average thing... Its what I would like to call BAD no wait really really BAD...
So what I did was I was walking through my local super market doing the shopping and one of those food stalls with the testers was packing up and gave me a 200g bag of Vittoria beans... I was like cool free beans and seeing as though I had just gotten myself a EM4800C and EM0450 setup earlier that day I was feeling pretty good about my self...
UNTIL
I got home and tried to make my self a single shot espresso with these beans, do I have experiance NO, talent at this NO, knowledge of good beans NO. So there I was trying my hardest, the grind was ok at best, flow was to fast and color was to light. I shook my head in shame as I had just made myself the worst coffee known to mankind, so I though I would give it a taste to see where this thing stands...
wait a cotten pickin minute this thing taste to much like STARBUCKS coffee, the terrible burnt kind, which got me wondering for a massive chain store like starbuck to produce coffee as good as terrible beans + first go Springy, makes a little part of me die inside because I wish I had all that money and a good coffee... but I have nothing
Thanks for listening/reading,
Springy
