[Chippy]

All coffee makers half price at Argos

[Matt GT]

In the subject of coffee, has anyone found anywhere cheaper than COSCO for quality grounds and beans?

 

I can recommend A1 coffee for good price with free delivery they have a decent selection of coffee beans and a crapton of other stuff I never realized existed for coffee

I have a 'Presso'

 

It's a hand cranked device that looks like the offspring of a mating betwean a corkscrew and a stirrup. Tis very rare to taste better coffee

[Jarbman]

thought about this for my ma silky, decided it wasnt worth it unless you were going to pay £150-200+ and not get the pod machines.

I dont really like the Lavazza coffee. I have tried most of the coffees in the supermarkets the best by miles has been Taylors expresso. Sainsburys own ground expresso is ok. I have a Gaggia expresso burr grinder but its rubbish does anyone have a reasonably priced burr grinder which is fine enough for proper expresso.

Zassenhaus make fine grinders - got mine off the bay for about 30 notes or 90 new. As said, invest rest in a good load of beans, and get a gold filter and funnel. Water at 90 degrees. Splash. Settle. Pour. Wait. Drink, etc.

Just had a thought silky...

 

I do hope your boy doesn't look into this sight. Bit of a giveaway as to what you have got him now.

Probably too late for xmas but when Which last looked at coffee machines, the argos one did well, DeLonghi EC 250.B Espresso-Cappuccino did well and the sub £100 morphy richards.

They were nearly as good as the £300 Gaggia ones but not as robustly made. Hope this helps.
