My Weekend Purchases- Part 1

I love my Italian stove top coffee maker and I make delicious coffee every morning, but it's missing something. Last Saturday I went to Sur La Table and bought this Bonjour milk frother, it is the best thing ever!!! It doesn't use any electricity, it looks like a French press, and you don't need to heat the milk to make the froth, all you need to do is plunge it 20 times and you're done! I've been doing a lot research and this is really the best frother out there, you don't need an expensive electronic gadget to make your perfect latte, and it beats paying $4 for a latte from a coffee bar everyday.

Good Morning!

And I love a good cup of coffee. I use Mukka Express not for making cappuccino, but to simply make a frothy cup of espresso! I've been trying to master the art of stove top coffee making for quite some time now, I've tried every setting for grinding the beans and the coffee still came out pretty grainy. Two weeks ago I finally have it down! The instruction for this gadget said to use the pressure frothing button (on top of the lid) only when you're making cappuccino, but one day I tried to make espresso with the pressure button activated and the result was mind-blowing, nothing was broken and the coffee was perfect! It's frothy and creamy and no grains, you don't even need to add much milk to make a perfect cup of latte! So no more spending $4 on a cup of coffee for me!
