Some flavoured coffees can be worth drinking, I remember working for GE back in the day and having Christmas pudding flavoured coffee from Lakeland because we had our own filter machine in our side office. Tasted great so we would stockpile it even if we did get a bollocking from one of the managers who thought we were drinking on duty. whistle:

I can't get into decaff but Mrs K will only drink it (or herbal tea). I have one mug of strong coffee in the morning and then I mainly drink ultra decaff (aka water) now unless we're going out.

4 minutes? Bloody amateur, you need to use shots of at least 7 day cold filtered coffee for the proper effect. Thumbs:

My friend is in the market for a new coffee machine and has her eyes set on a RANCILIO SILVIA PRO (https://www.espressocoffeeshop.com/en/deals/69-0-rancilio-silvia-pro-coffee-machine.html)? Shocked:

What do you think...?
