Hi,
Im horribly addicted to coffee, and looking to buy my first machine/grinder. Id be grateful if anyone could explain to me what features lead to better coffee (i.e. Why is the Sylvia apparently so good compared to say, a Breville [Having used one of the cheap models, Im aware that there is a big difference in quality - Im just not entirely sure why]. Im willing to spend up to about $1200 - but Id like something that is going to make good enough coffee so that Im not tempted to drop another $3K in a few years. Im not ridiculously fussy about coffee..but Id never drink coffee from The Coffee Club, for example, if I could help it.
Is there a good way to learn how to make good coffee? I hear the learning curve can be a bit steep.
Id also like to know if anyone knows of places in Brisbane where you can go and actually taste coffee made with various machines. Looking at them doesnt tell me much, except that chrome and shiny red are very much in fashion.
Cheers, sorry for all the questions!
