I blogged about my Baby Gaggia earlier in the year, but want to return to the subject of coffee machines and specifically Gaggia coffee machines, which I really do think are the best in the world.

To the great amusement of just about everyone I meet, I’m a coffee drinker rather than a tea drinker, which I think is OK, but just doesn’t do it for me. I used to use one of those stove top coffee makers which can produce decent coffee if you’re careful, but often don’t. Most people don’t care enough about their coffee to really produce it well anyway, so I’m always a bit wary.

Anyway, since trying an espresso made on my brother’s Gaggia a few years ago, I also decided that I wanted one. And it is great. You can read a review of the Baby Gaggia , which is now available to take coffee pods, although I must admit I’m a purist, despite the amount of cleaning it takes. Favourite coffee is simply Illy, and I read an interesting interview a few weeks ago with the CEO of Illy – really focused on producing one single, excellent product and to me they’re doing well. Also see the line of Gaggia coffee machines stocked by Cafe Italia.
