    I didn't know there was such a thing as an espresso stovetop - they look handy and much more affordable than the big fancy espresso machines.

    Awesome! My Italian flatmates (three of them) just couldn't live without the espresso stovetop. We have 3 laying on the kitchen bench! :)

    Very nice lens, I have a plan to pick your lens into my site. Can I? :)
    By the way, you can check another coffee brewing instruction from moka-pot.com, the brewer is moka pot from Bialetti.

    I have to say, this is an excellent post, very informative.

    I have a lens about moka pots as well (http://www.squidoo.com/whats-the-difference-between-moka-pot-coffee-and-espresso-coffee) and even so, I picked up a tip or two on your lens.

    For some years I've been using a Stainless steel Lavazza Carmencita (1979 model) stovetop and an ancient Greek handmill to make my coffee, and the results are brilliant..... but now i am a convert to the stunning hand operated PRESSO machine which takes the whole coffee ritual a step further. i still use the Carmencita for those days when nostalgia needs a top up.

    I am going to have to get on of these Espresso stovetops. We spend a lot of time away from home and this would be a wonderful thing to take along. Lenrolled to my latte and home coffee bean roasting lenses.

    I got an aluminum moka because they were much cheaper than stainless steel. It does corrode, however, and now I'm thinking about upgrading. I LOVE your link to the illustrated coffee drinks! Great find!!

    No, because I have a machine that I have used for 6 years. I worked evenings so I always had lots of time for coffee in the morning. I like froth milk and sugar. The line drawing is nice. Is it your? I am thinking about using more hand drawn illustrations. I it makes a more personal lens. Thanks for visiting my lens. I am going to go back to the older lenses and do keyword searches for some needed updates.

    The way to my heart is through a good cup of coffee, and I'm in love with this lens. Great pictures, by the way, I can almost smell the coffee just by looking at them...

    Great lens! 5 * and lensrolled to my coffee-mugs lens.

    Have 4 stovestops as Americans call `m two 4 cups one 6 cup and a tiny one for one cup. One Nespresso, one Lavazza espresso machine en filtercoffee machine and a cafetiere of course. I love the stovestops!

    Only downside to stove stops is the cleaning, to do that thouroughly its not the fastest shot of espresso to grab.

    Furthermore the quality of taste is entirely dependant on the kind of coffee you use if you follow the instructions.

    I`ll probably keep using them. The oldest one has been in active duty for 3 years and i only replaced the sealing rings a couple of times.

    Working godless hours in the film industry, you better know your coffee. You do, CT. 5*s and a caffeinated SquidAngel Blessing. :-)

    I liked this: It was well presented and one could learn to be a great coffee addict from learning from this information. In today's economical climate it is useful information

    Oh I wish I had seen this lens at the beginning of December when I was struggling to think of gift ideas for my Hubby for his Birthday as well as Christmas!
