Yummy Coffee..........with frothy milk :)

[Dave7]

I have now invested in my super-duper coffee machine.
I know (from CCrs comments that some people do not rate them but having weighed things up it seemed the right/best option for me).
Today I tried my first one..........a long Americano with frothy milk.........BLINKIN BLUMIN LOVELY.
To get the frothy milk I simply used a cheap (Wilko) battery operated whisk.......then put milk in micro for 30 seconds.
While that was doing I put pod in machine and hey presto...........45 seconds later a nice, tasty coffee with a frothy top.
Out of interest........I went for a Bosh Tassimo 40 as it was 50% off at Argos
Cant wait to try other variations.

People were tried at Nuremberg for putting milk in coffee!

I miss my Tassimo

I've broken two

I've a Nespresso. Super smashing lovely. George Clooney often pops in for a brew. Or it could be my reflection in the mirror. Hard to tell us apart.

Anyone like Mellow Birds?

Anyone like Mellow Birds?

That's punishment for shop lifting in some countries

I once mistook Camp Coffee for gravy browning. Needless to say the Sunday roast was ruined

I prefer them a bit more lively.

Like Blatant pigeons

Provocative little minxes...

Is Drago the Harvey Weinstein of pigeon fanciers?

Mellow Birds sounds like some 1970s version of rohypnol to me.

Miss Goodbody has a penchant for a long black Americano

Frothy hot milk in coffee?

Some posts make me smile more than others.This is one of them.

There's a reason why Tassimo are heavily discounted: they use a barcode reader to stop other people being able to sell pods for them, so you're limited to the expensive ones approved by Douwe Egberts; no refillable pods are available; and the pod recycling scheme is a sham with few pick-up locations in many areas and those that do exist tend to be in bizarre locations off the beaten track, such as apparently-random residential driveways.

At least it makes fairly good espresso.

I think the best buy at the minute may be the Dualit 3-in-1 machines which can use loose grounds, biodegradable ESE pods or easily-recyclable Nespresso-compatible capsules.
