european coffee - 2005/11/23 22:00 Up until about two months ago, I made my coffee this way in the morning. One heaping tablespoon fine grind coffee in a long coffee cup, add boiling water to 1/2 in. of the top. Let it sit while I was doing my ablutions. Stir and drink it up. Always tasted fine to me.

Well we went to Europe this fall. When I ordered coffee, I got espresso, every time!!. This is good stuff, even when watered down.

I'd like to make my own, I head for work at about 3am, so you can forget about coffee shop stops, and I'm sorry but Tim's just don't make it.

I tried one from Canadian Tire, but frankly it was not up to my expectations. Oh it made coffee all right, just leaked everywhere, it was that plastic reservoir seal, must be a poor design. Took it back.

Anyhow I believe I have narrowed it down to a Gaggia Baby. I can afford this. The only thing holding me back? I don't know if they have a separate reservoir, which is gravity feed and depends on a rubber seal to stop it from leaking all over counter. I looked at the one from starbucks, seemed OK but got mixed reviews, I did like the sealed reservoir though. Any one out there who can tell me?
