So we bought this on sale at Starbucks. It is regularly $1,400.00 and we got it for like $450.00. So we got a deal right. It has already saved us several hundred in Starbucks Doppio Espresso's.

Actually the machine is quite nice. It makes single, double, and regular espresso. It can foam cream for Latte's and Cap's and it's all very automated. All we have to do is clean it.

I clean it and well sometimes so does Fabrizio. It's actually a pretty great thing to have access to espresso whenever you want it. It is also easy to have too many which is what sometimes happens to me.

I drink too much espresso sometimes.

How many bars of pressure does this spec out at ? I hear the Baristas at my local joynt (groundwork in Venice, CA) say that their machines have jet aircraft level couplings in theirs so they can get the 10 bars (10 atmospheres) of pressure that good espresso requires. But Me, I put all sorts of crap in my coffee, so I am hopeless in understanding what good stuff tastes like anyways !
