We have linked the new version of our De’Longhi manual espresso machine as they no longer sell our current version. This is great for someone who is looking to explore the espresso world and wants to have a simple machine to get the job done. 15 bar professional pressure assures quality results every single time. The removable water tank allows for easy refilling and cleaning. The attached milk frother allows to you expand your barista skills and try and copy your favorite milk espresso drinks right at home.

Coffee Maker

Before we ventured out and became espresso fanatics we had this 12 cup Cuisinart coffeemaker. The carafe-free design allowed the coffee to stay warm for many hours without getting burnt like the carafe options do. This design was sleek, and enjoyable to show off on our counter. The dial coffee gage also made a fun way to see when we were running low! 

Measuring Espresso Shot's

Back to espresso. We use these cute but practical espresso shot glasses to properly measure our shots for our every morning Americanos. (We will later talk about our espresso making process.) Another reason we have to use these tiny glasses is most coffee mugs will not even fit underneath most espresso machines.

We use this stainless steel base with wooden handle to tamper down our ground espresso beans. This looks like it is more expensive than it is. The greatest thing about this tamper is it has a small mat so you will not have the coffee grounds on your counter. 

This inexpensive handheld battery milk frother allows you to make your fancy coffee drinks right at home using your preference of milk. Add a little cinnamon on top of your latte and it will look exactly like a coffeehouse.

Coffee Bean Storage

Our current coffee canister that we hold our beans in we purchased from Target and it is no longer available. We found this air tight one off of Amazon and it is even better than ours as it has a placement on the side for your measuring spoon. This allows for a cleaner and more neat looking presentation.
