Since some idiot stole my cheap, old espresso machine at work, I needed to find a replacement.
Problem: can't get a big countertop machine again, because it's too big to be locked up in my desk, and don't want it to be stolen again.
Solution: MyPressi Twist
Mine came today, and I couldn't wait to pull my first shot.
Ahhhh. Amazingly smooth goodness.
Here's an in-depth review from some espresso connoisseurs:
This session featured another round of blind taste tests, this time with a single origin espresso under development. The result? Surprisingly, against the resident La Marzocco FB-80, the diminutive TWIST won every round with three blind taste testers.
Going to work might be even more fun tomorrow

Oh come on, we all know you needed an excuse to buy nitrous oxide cartridges.

So you have to pour the hot water yourself?

Up to 4 double shots.
There's quite a bit of leakage, so if you only use it once a week, you might only get 2 or 3 double shots out of it.
Meanwhile, the fuçking thieve at work stole my two Dollar Store spoons. WTF?

Lol Automatic_Espresso_1 was a solicitor for this product? What a clever and sneaky way to advertise by digging up old threads.

He could have had any woman in the world, but none could match the beauty of his own hand.

Set up a webcam at your desk and catch the thief(ves).
