Yes Jerms I totally agree... and also to add on, besides having dual boilers the capacity of each boiler is impt too esp for that 18sec shot and also the pressure to texture the milk nicely

I can never texture my milk like the cafes becos of the lack of pressure on my machine at home.. but at least I do a better job than the likes of Starbucks and Coffee Beans. Goodness, something is definitely wrong with their coaching!
Unless I am going to have an espresso I will try to avoid buying their coffee :p

you also coffee siao.. i only beginner.. :)

honestly.. alot of places are over charging.. but then its a biz and they need to make money.. Starbucks the worst. those that buy Venti without knowing that they are paying for so much just for milk are a poor lot.. :(

let me tempt you with some important details:

The giotto rocket comes with dual boilers and what this means is separate heat controls for your espresso and hot water.

Then you might ask why is this important? Well, have you tasted burned coffee? this would prevent that problem. Also, the temperature for expresso extraction and steaming your milk is also different. dual boilers will ensure that you always have the right temperature..

and no.. i dont work for them and i dont get a commission.. :p

champion....

nope. i know the franchiser and franchisee.

ah.. but coffee joints ah.. really need to have passion.. coz dont make alot of money.. the cost of your latte is actually not cheap... depending on the beans you use... its the food that brings in the cash to pay for rent.

CSH and gang is doing pretty well though.... :)

They have all sorts of classes. Espressolab started as a teaching centre for coffee.
 
Re: Serious Question: Coffee Machines

All the coffee talk suddenly gave me a flashback - Anyone remember the SAF night snack Kopi ?

Tea lady or Tea missy?

There are too many cafe around the island. A couple of them are roaster. Competitions are keen.

Sg rules are too rigid. Otherwise, can do mobile caffe on Orchard Rd. Low investment + Low overheads.
