      Starbucks isn’t great espresso, but there’s a reason espresso drinks cost what they do. There’s a lot more labor, a genuinely obscenely expensive machine, or both involved in making it in a shop like that.

      I’m perfectly fine with a cheap machine at home, but it just doesn’t work in a coffee shop.

          Definitely a legit way to make great coffee. I don’t usually have the 10 minutes it takes not to scorch it in the morning, but I do bring it camping and on vacation.

            Your right, not for rushed workday mornings.

            There is definitely time and patience involved to get it right on a consistent basis.

            Never tried it camping before. Great idea!

        They knew it wasn’t a Starbucks. The comment was meant more as “if you think that’s bad, don’t go into Starbucks” At least that’s how I read it.
