I have a seaco classico stainless steel espresso machine. Regardless of how you preffer to drink your coffee (espresso/american) the best way to get the full flavour is to grind the beans prior to brewing. I've tried pods, they are very practical, but in no way do they surpass a fresh grind IMHO

I agree with The Big Easy, Illy beans are very good.
I grow and process the coffee I drink...
have you guys tried Guatemalan coffee???

I think growing and processing my own coffee would be a bit more work than I am willing to do for my daily caffeine fix.

Are you serious?

Cheers,

ILLY Beans are best!

Wow, that looks like a great appliance! And very expensive.

In the days before the internet...I was content to go to store, ask a few questions, and bring home whatever I was looking for. Now with a world of information at my fingertips...I reseach for days to buy something as basic as a coffee maker. Furthermore, I start looking at $100 appliances and then determine that I actually may need (want) a $1500! automatied gizmo to hook me up with my morning caffeine.

Are you serious?

Yup, I do this for a living

I work @ a family owned business. We sell to big roasters around the world like Nestle, Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts among others...

You're spot on, JPM, beans are the best to have, my powered cofee days are long gone!

There are beans from Gutamala/Canada/States/Italy in the fridge. The smell of freshly ground coffee, is enough to send me into orbit each time and everytime...

Cheers,

I think my Gaggio is approacing the 1,000 cappacino mark soon!

Regarding the Tassimo - can't you buy the coffee pods online rather than running to Bed Bath & Beyond?

Yep
