That is a nice looking machine - KitchenAid is not cheap though.
Let us know how well it does.
Need some advice from coffee snobs (or anybody that has mastered at-home brewing).

Hi all,
Huge coffee nut here. I've tried everything from drip to getting my coffee at Starbucks. Finally found the method that I've stuck with for the past 2-3 years. My method of brew is with a stove top coffee maker. I think someone has already posted the Bialetti, which is a great one to get. It's more of a single serving shot, unless you get the 10 cups, which will fill 3/4 of a travel mug. It maybe inconvenient at first, but once you get the hang of it, you'll notice that takes little effort. The taste is great, strong and bold (if you like it like that).
If I am at work, then I would turn to my French Press. I find anything made with a machine has a weird taste to it.

yup, I posted the exact same in post #47....sounds like you have good taste in coffee! :yup:
(p.s. when he mentioned that it is strong....all you have to do is pour more hot water to dilute it to taste.)

From the picture it looks like you are pouring water.
Its a great machine, unless your clumsy like me and accidentally sloshed water into the bean bin, took me 2 days to get grinder working right.

Had dinner with a good friend of ours tonight and he showed us how he makes Turkish Coffee.

How was it?
It was different. The beans are ground so fine that when heated they infuse into the water and basically dissolve. Had me running around like Beavis for about two hours, lol.
Are you sure it wasn't butt head? It was great meeting you and the Mrs the other day!! Hopefully next time your in Mumbo and we are on a trail!!! Safe travels my friend.
I see a new avatar happening soon......
