So much for my street cred

by **bamaster** on Wed Jul 06, 2011 9:41 pm

I ran out of coffee. I thought I had enough Cuvee Dead Fingers to last, but I didn't. So I ordered some Metropolis Redline, which I love. But it won't arrive until Friday.

So I picked up some Lavazza Super Crema. Ya know what? I didn't hate it! Tomorrow mornin' I'mma make a latte to go. So there!

Made me laugh...

People who really like a smoooth cup 'o joe over all else were really impressed with my vac pot preground Italian coffee.

In a pinch, I'd make a latte too...

make it an iced mocha, and remember to foam the milk a bit for texture and sweetness.

Ooo! That sounds like a good idea. I don't make mochas often but I do enjoy them. Thanks!

There is something appealing about the blue and silver packaging. It promises so much!

Try a few other Italian espresso blends. Not as bad commonly described.

Hope you'll let us know about it here on on riktigtkaffe?

I get CaffeMusetti at Willy's for the refreshingly low price of ~120 SEK/kg.

I could n't find any cafes certified by the Instituto Nazionale Espresso in Cinque Terre, but in Pisa there is Bar Amadeus, Via Giusti, 6/4, which gets good reviews. Apparently it's just off the main square.

Edit: Sarzana near Cinque Terre, on the way to Pisa Sarzana Caffè Via Gramsci, 58
