My friend S gave me this used expresso machine. A friend was moving or something. I had fun trying it. Daughter L suggested I use a denture tablet to clean it out first. So after watching a few youtube videos on how to operate the machine, I ran the machine 3 times until the water ran clear.
I made this frothy cappuccino and it was delicious. The machine has a frothing wand pictured at the right of the machine.
Next time I will use distilled water, as I heard it makes good espresso.
The cappuccino looks delicious! I love a good espresso machine!

ReplyDeleteHola! el cafe tiene muy buena pinta. Besos
ReplyDeleteI don't drink coffee, but do enjoy baking with it.
ReplyDeleteOh, I love a good frothing wand! This looks fun. I haven't used mine in quite a while since it takes us more space on my counter..and well, I already have too much on my counter. So great to make your own expresso.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very good drink. Glad you got it work and all. Wonderful Monday post!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun new toy, and even better that it was free. Happy new week.
ReplyDeleteSweet present! Looks so good! Enjoy those barista morning!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great, enjoy! Hugs, Valerie
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post
ReplyDeleteOh, good stuff! I love cappuccinos.
ReplyDeleteEspresso is wonderful and you can conjure up so many types of coffee with it...
ReplyDeleteNice gift. I have a single cup regular coffee machine. I had one that did four cups but it gave out so I got the single and its great for just me. That way I don't waste coffee. I am however thinking of getting another one for my desk at work...
ReplyDeleteI love drinking coffee so much <3
ReplyDeleteI had a cappuccino machine once. It was good for awhile, but then it got clogged so I threw it away. Enjoy yours.
ReplyDeleteWish I had one of those, Christine. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteLooks good.

ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan

ReplyDeleteI had expresso machine, which I took to the thrift store.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe.
Great idea your daughter had for cleaning it!
ReplyDeleteMy hubby would like this!
ReplyDeleteLinda maquina amo el café. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteClever idea on the denture tablet. It's been years since I had an expresso, can't even remember the last time. Such a nice gift!
ReplyDeletenice machine...
ReplyDeleteDelicious coffee, nice machine.
ReplyDeleteMaybe that is why distilled water is becoming so difficult to find. People are cleaning their espresso machines. You need to learn to make those cute images in the froth.
ReplyDeleteI am mildly jealous. Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun gift! You'll be wholly caffeinated from here on out.
