I use a Gaggia Carezza for my Lattes and Espressos . I am wondering whether
there a significant difference between coffee made with a drip machine and
an Americano both made with same beans? Is it worth getting a small 4 cup
drip coffee maker ? What is a decent brand? tks


I down covert the best, a commercial Bunomatic for smaller individual
coffee portions, since nobody else is using the machine. I take the
pot off, and use the instant Bunomatic heated water dispenser to
conveniently measure a single cup of hot water for the larger decanter
pot, which is transfered to additionaly heat in a nearby microwave.
Put my coffee grinds directly into the hot water, swish-swosh a little
side-to-side, slide out the filter holder and put a paper filter in
it, placed ontop the cup, to pour the coffee through.
