  1. Coffee Beans
    No offence, the thread title says "In my mug" so that's what i was posting about like... There was another similar thread but as this one was at the top I used it....
  2. Coffee Beans
    This weeks treat is Peru Tunki, again from York coffee emporium, I've had Tunki before and this is every bit as good! Works well with milk, and also works well in the stove top pot! I'm unable to note the flavours as seems to be the thing to do, but I'm a type1 diabetic, so haven't had sweet...
  3. Coffee Beans
    Again, probably too far but York Coffee Emporium have a decent selection, and they're on the west side of York. I can't offer a comparison to other roasters as I'm newish to fresh beans but have been very happy with what I've tried so far....
  4. Coffee Beans
    This weekend I've tried some Austrailan Skybury from York Coffee Emporium (it's great and only 2 miles away from where I live) Very nice with milk, brewed in a cafetiere!
  5. Coffee Accessories
    Another aye for the mocha pot! My recently bought Classic has become a kitchen ornament....
  6. Coffee Beans
    Before Christmas and my fresh coffee discovery I'd frequently use Morrisons fair trade espresso, pre ground and in a green packet at ยฃ2.99! Tastes ok in a mocha pot and wakes you up on a morning! Lavazza Crema de Gusto is a nice wake up coffee too, though I suppose the purists will frown at the...
  7. Coffee Beans
    I've just opened a bag of Honduras SHG Finca Santa Rosa from York Coffee Emporium, brewed in a cafeteire and absolutely gorgeous so it is! The previous bag was a Brazil Santos from the same place, a very nice drink as well, brewed in the Classic, the stove top pot and the cafeteire, so I'm...
  8. Gaggia Forum
    So, a couple of weeks on and I'm mostly back on the mocha pot.... The Classic is great on a weekend when I have time for it to warm up, but being used to what adds up to four shots of espresso (ouch) when I get up find the pot faster and as equally nice to drink! That's not knocking the Gaggia...
  9. Coffee Lounge โ˜ฎโค
    I've recently bought a second hand Classic to try for a change, I've used a mocha pot for years and years for a large breakfast robusta coffee with milk so initially struggled to make the same size coffee with it on a morning! From advice on here on weights and extraction quantities I've learned...
  10. Gaggia Forum
    Thank you for that! The rule of thumb explains it, and perhaps taking the tray off to get my mug under the portafilter should have been my clue where I was going wrong. Whoops! I've never bothered to learn the trendy names for coffee drinks (whoops again)! Ive now compared the baskets (Gaggia &...
  11. Gaggia Forum
    Pre ground for expresso and giving a decent crema, with the standard pressurised basket, I hear what you say about preground and stale, but it's the same stuff I've used for years in the stove top, and it tastes lovely out of the stove top. I seem to get a better taste using the 1 shot basket...
  12. Gaggia Forum
    Did anyone upgrade to a classic from a stove top pot?(I've used mine for more than 20 years!) I'm having different taste issues and wondered about any thoughts on my musings! (long musings at that) I bought a second hand Classic a couple of days back second hand, good condition etc, I expected...
  13. Coffee Beans
    I'm busy drinking costa rican, from the coffeebean and brewed in a mocha pot. absolutely beautiful! So, that's 3 types of fresh coffee I've tried (Jamaican blue mountain blend, Brazil Santos and the above) and have to say it's the best tasting coffee i've brewed at home in over 20 years of...

    I know nothing about the machine, but you can buy a "T" or "Y" fitting which would give you two outlets from the single male, providing you have room for the extra pipe.
  15. Coffee Beans
    brazillian Santos from The coffee-bean, ground a little coarser than expresso and brewed in the stove top pot and it's lovely! As one who's drank coffee for a lot of years buying mainly supermarket beans, I've got to say how impressed i am with the fresh roast coffee i'm drinking at present.
  16. Coffee Beans
    I've just recieved my order for some of these beans, I ground some up for the cafeteire and they're lovely with hot milk, in the morning I might grind some finer for my mocha pot and try them that way too. I've got to say that they taste as I remember JBM to taste so for the price they're spot...
  17. Coffee Beans
    Ha ha, the post that google linked to send me to this site! I usually treat myself to a pound of "Jablum" at christmas time, but the bag I bought via Ebay last year didn't taste anything like as nice as the previous years.... I'm going to try The Coffee Beans JBM blend this year and with what...
  18. ๐Ÿ‘‹ Introductions ๐Ÿ‘‹
    A new member saying hi! I found this site from a google link whilst researching some JBM on sale on Ebay.... I just use a stove top for my breakfast pint of Expresso with milk (Lavazza Crema e Gusto or Morrisons expresso) or a French press if I get something different and warm my milk up in't...
