Cappuccino Coffee Espresso Maker

Drinking regular coffee upsets my stomach. I have an espresso machine and a drip coffee maker, so I can make almost any kind of coffee. Are there any coffees that are more gentle on the stomach? I really can’t stand Folgers so I won’t be trying it. I usually make a caramel mocha with decaf hazelnut espresso at home in soy milk and that doesn’t upset my stomach like plain cheap drip.

so want to start making coffe/lattes at home to save money but wondering whats the difference between a coffe maker and an espresso maker(besides the name) b/c they both look to do the same thing..hot water over grinded coffee…Want to buy a cheaper simple machine but wondering if i can make espresso in a coffee maker and vice versa. thanks

I recently purchased an espresso machine with a milk steamer, but I’m having a very tough time tracking down an espresso thermometer to use when frothing milk. Can I simply use one of those dial meat thermometers from the grocery store instead?

There has been a espresso/coffee maker (might just be espresso and latte) machine on a commercial on tv and it shows the machine making the drink into a tall mug… It has been on in the past month or two… Does anyone know the name of this machine by chance? My grandmother wants it for Christmas and I cannot remember the name of it and of course the commercial is nowhere to be found now that I want to know what it was! lol

I am making a cofee drink and it calls for fresh brewed espresso. I dont have an esspresso maker but i do have a coffee maker and cappuccino machine. Which one would be better to use?

I grind my espresso at a local grocery store. And I always set the machine to the Espresso setting but I’m not sure if that is right grind I should be using.

I’ve recently learned how to make espressos. I have my own espresso machine.
I’ve had it with milk and splenda and it’s good, but kinda plain.
What are some extra stuff I can add to an espresso to make it taste better?

I cannot find the manual online anybody have this machine or know how to get it? I am just trying to make espresso! thanks!

So i hear that one important indicator of a good espresso pull is that the espresso in the filter would have dried out and formed an almost solid puck when taken out…

My old machine used to do that, but my new one is different. The espresso turns to a pasty mush….

It tastes no different, but was wondering if its a bad thing? If so, how to fix it?

thanks

I have a good cappuccino/espresso machine with 15 bars of pressure, and when I make an espresso the coffee itself is very hot. But once I steam the milk and add it to make a latte, it is just lukewarm and cools very quickly. What am I doing wrong? Should I be steaming the milk until it’s piping hot? I was told to steam it until the metal pitcher felt warm on the outside.

I suppose I could just nuke it when I’m done, but any other suggestions would be appreicated. Thanks! I can’t pay for Starbucks anymore and need this to work
