New Toy

I picked up a new toy for myself last night, as mentioned earlier. Eager to give it a try I pulled out the only coffee I have in the house right now that isn't green. My stand by West Coast Dark Roast from superstore. I ground it as fine as I could with my grinder and packed this puppy as full as I could.

This was my first time ever trying espresso from a machine like this. I've heard nothing but good things so I had pretty high expectations. Let me tell you, they were met or surpassed. Even with regular coffee. What a strong espresso. Full of flavor, not too bitter. No crema though but that could be because of the beans. Eager to try some choco in here or even some President's Choice espresso. This is a neat gadget to add to your collection and for 10 bucks you can't go wrong. Even if you use it 5 or 6 times it pays for itself.
