The Magical Fruit

The Oromo people would customarily plant a coffee tree on the graves of powerful sorcerers. They believed that the first coffee bush sprang up from the tears that the god of heaven shed over the corpse of a dead sorcerer.

Good morning from Chicago, and my favorite place to get espresso (The Mothership).

I’m trying to make better espresso from home, so I’m curious as to what methods you all use to make espresso at home that you love.

Doesn't really answer your question, but I've been really happy making "faux latte"s and such with my Moka pot. A little inconvenient to clean, but definitely takes up less space than a mini espresso machine.

I do love my Mokapot and I can make an okay cappuccino using it but really looking for that strong espresso taste. I can’t seem to get that or the acidity with mine.
