Hi.
I really enjoy my coffee but I don't end up often making a lot of coffee at home. I love the ritual of manual style coffee making and I do know some of the basics....
I do two in the morning normally and thats it (for home making) On the weekend I do 4-6 each day. Some days during the week I might do more, but usually I won't if I'm working.
I have owned a Saeco Venazio and recently had a Kitchen Aid that has now got a blown bolier. I also have a kitchen aid grinder.
I have a friend that has a Expobar Minore and I was always so impressed by the coffee's he was able to make with it. He also has an Ibertial (sp?) grinder.
So I'm prepared to spend that kind of cash on a coffee machine, but I'm not sure if that's the *best* one for me. It seems it's really good for doing a consistent temperature ? I like that it doesn't seem to be huge (it won't be plumbed in). Is there anything else I should consider ? Or at this kind of price range are they all kind of the same in terms of what they deliver and it comes down to size and visual aesthetic ?
Am i crazy to buy a machine like this for mostly two coffee's a day ?
I also think my grinder isn't quite up to it as I found that it never seemed to be fine enough for the kitchen Aid machine I have. My partner doesn't mind the look of the Minore but she's hated every grinder I've shown her. She's not interested in having it on the bench ! ANything else I should look at in a more funky looking grinder design ? Or am I having to hide it in a cupboard and bring it out to grind ?
Thanks and appreciate the time for you to consider my novice questions.
